Dark Angel Blog

In David Klass’s Dark Angel, Jeff is conflicted when his convicted murderer brother is about to return home. Jeff, the main character, feels as if he just got his life under control. He has recently moved to a new state with his mom and dad, and is happy with his new high school experience. More than anything, he is glad for the anonymity he has in this new town versus his old town where everyone knew that his brother, Troy, stabbed one of his classmates. Jeff resents his brother for returning to town and creating havoc in his life. Little does he know that his brother’s brush with the law may not have come to an end.

The details in Klass’s books always make them interesting and appealing to read. Dark Angel did not fall short of my expectations. I feel as though the author did an incredible job using descriptive language, keeping the reader engaged in the novel. I also thought the foreshadowing that the title, Dark Angel, casted on the novel. The theme of good versus evil was apparent throughout. I would highly recommend this thriller to anyone because he is a gifted writer.
