YA
Battle-trained teen Billi; her cold, driven father Arthur; and her estranged friend, the psychically gifted Kay, battle the forces of evil as Templar Knights--an ancient, depleted group, but all that now stands between the exiled Angel of Death and the devastation of humankind. Chadda's supernatural world-building, steeped in dark-edged religious mythology, is compelling, and his envelope-pushing plot twists are ultimately rewarding.
