Book Description
This story is in genre Magical Realism. "A Field Guide To The Angels in Brooklyn" tells a story about the beautiful borough of Brooklyn, in Nieuw Amsterdam Stad and its older but no less beautiful sister city, Verne, and some minor, midrange and Major Arcana Devils, who are cabdrivers, bartenders, police officers, ruthless criminals, lawyers, art gallery owners, and other denizens of Nieuw Amsterdam Stad. It is also about Angels unfallen, and Alastar Connor, the very confused earth angel, other mid-level angels who masquerade as humans; one, a hippy who has passed his use-by-date, and some extraordinary women who are Alastar Connor's best, and only hope for staying on the right side of universal history.Alastar Connor owns the 83 Gallery in the DUMBO section of Brooklyn. When not selling surrealist art, he enjoys spending his time with his soul mate, Sheila Divine, and friends in Corlear Beach. Unknown to Alastar he is about to be misidentified as a fallen Cherub by the name of Alastarus, who was recently freed from the Lake of Fire by the Fallen Cherub Goochelaar Kwaad. Kwaad, self-absorbed, and vain sets in motion series of events which will cause Alastar, Sheila, and their friends to participate in possibly universe ending events. It is a wild and exhilarating ride through Brooklyn, De Grote Appel, and the spirit plane. Jerry O'Brien is at work on the second book in this series, Fever Dreams.
