Leave a Comment / Brandon Carter

Unlike previous novels by E. M. Duesel, I Am Angel is the result of only secondary research and exuberant imagination. The author discovered that the possibilities of reincarnation allow this ideology to quite possibly be the Creator’s most ingenious innovation. Traversing the many lives of a soul called Tau, E. M. Duesel contributes to the Creator’s endgame with each member of Tau’s celestial tribe having a purpose and each action is a cog in the wheel of spiritual evolution. Of course,

Duesel can’t ignore specific injustices found in war and organized religion, and those experiences are woven through the plot of the book. Duesel makes introspection a seven-course meal, and serious consideration dessert.
