Have you ever thought about how possible it is for a friend to control our minds? Do you believe that some friendships can be dangerous and pride can be destructive? Falling Toward Redemption by B.D. Vannoy is a fictional book with chapters and pages.

Chamuel, an angelic being, looks at scientists working towards using humans for experimentation, trying to create a species from humans to subjugate the human world. as ordered by their Queen Alqueora, and he was uncomfortable with this. What happens to Alqueora and her people? Did she succeed in her quest to subdue the world through her experiments, or did she eventually realize that there is only one true God and succumb to God's supremacy? Read this book to find out.

There are many things I like about this book that seem notable. As I read this book, I discovered it's linked to the biblical story of fallen angels who came to earth, had sexual relations with humans, and bore giant sons, the Nephilim. This is not something one can get from the onset of this book unless one reads with an open mind or with knowledge of this biblical story, but seeing how the author embedded this story in this fictional book is amazing. From this book, I learned how friendship can be dangerous; not everyone you call your friend has the best intentions, and I got that from how Lilith was manipulating her friend, the Queen.

Another thing I learned from this book is how dangerous and powerful pride is, and how powerful it is to destroy lives. Seeing the main character's pride and how she ended up inspired me to be humble no matter who I become or what position I find myself in, particularly when in authority or charge of anything. I also learned from this book that Satan is not the same as Lucifer. I learned the importance of obedience and obeying God's word for word, not overdoing what he sends but not going beyond what he instructs.

There's nothing I dislike about this book; this book contains many life-changing lessons; I learned about the love of God towards us in another way; the author's storytelling is so fluent and engaging; the plot and the arrangement are so orderly; this book is professionally edited, and I found just one error while reading it. Because of these reasons, I rate it four out of five stars.

Although this is a controversial book, it has strong elements of Christianity, so I recommend it to Christians. I also recommend it to lovers of fiction or readers who like books that are related to the Bible. Readers struggling with pride can also read this book, and I strongly recommend it to believers and unbelievers on their journey toward redemption.

Truly friendships can be dangerous and manipulative when shared with bad people, I like the redemptive nature of God and the fact that I'm sure he did punish Queen Alqueora and Lilian. I'd like to read this intriguing book.

I thought that Satan is Lucifer. The author seems to put a major fictional twist from the original story in the Bible. I somewhat like fictional biblical stories so I might consider this book. Well done for your superb review!

Initially, I thought that I would really like this book. Unfortunately, though, it seems like the fiction involved here changes the Biblical story. I find that disturbing.

This is an interesting novel. I’ll really love to read it. As the saying goes, pride goes before a fall, when one is being too prideful, they are bound to fall. Great review!

Yes indeed, I do agree with the reviewer. Some friends can be destructive and hinder our path to success.

I love that the question that started the review. It kind of summarise the entire reveiw. The book has a very caty book title and one filled with suspense. Though the first impression I had was that it was a Christian book.

Yes I agree that some friendships can be quite terrible. I look forward to knowing if the angel would eventually stop the experiments on humans. Interesting plotline.

Falling towards redemption sounds like a book filled with important lessons, truly one must not be proud because pride goes before a fall like in the case of Queen Alqueora, I can't wait to read this book for the many lessons. Great review

I have been reading books pertaining to angels recently and I would definitely give this a go. What the queen was planning on doing was outrageous and I hope it wasn't successful. Great review.
