Query for Heaven & Hell Series
This is a rough idea of my query. Let me know what you think of my story idea.
Demons beware! Diana, daughter of Archangel Michael has been sent to Earth to begin her final trials. As the only woman in training to be an Archangel, she must prove her worth. When she comes across Byleth an Arch-demon, he puts her skills to the test, by raising the dead in the middle of Sin City. Diana must stop him and send him back to Hell before the humans learn of their kinds. (Diana has a hell of a time following the rules.)
Filled with humor, action, stomach-turning scenes and love against the rules, THE TRIALS will appeal to fans Laurell K. Hamilton and Kim Harrison. This 70,000-word dark fantasy novel is filled with fighting, demons, angels and walking dead. The ultimate Good vs. Evil and the training ground is Earth.

Do you think, THE TRIALS sounds heavenly sinful?

Having read the first three chapters, I like the direction The Trials is taking (I'm a sucker for angels and demons anyway).
I think you should take out the line "(Diana has a hell of a time following the rules.)" - It doesn't really fit where you've placed it. Other than that, it's a nice little summary of the story. Good luck sending it out!
Thanks to my critquing partner I'm learning a lot. She's the best!
^_^ Always happy to help!
Anything that shows you are serious about your career I'd mention it.
Thanks Jamie.
I’d read it. Sounds like a book I would enjoy. I only have one question – is her meeting the Arch-demon in Sin City part of her trials (like a quest to be conquered)or is it separate (big distraction) from her “formal” trials to become an archangel?
Mel: It's is part of conquering the Arch-demons and sending them back to Hell. She has an initial 80 Arch-demons to find and return them back to Hell before she can become an Archangel.
I'd read it! :-)
Good luck!

Thanks Erica. That's good news.
