Whenever I think about the name, D.N. Angel, the thing I come up with is Dark Night Angel. Which would fit, right?
This story isn't my favorite, but definitely worth looking into.
The story will be unlike what you have read before, and twists will cause you to gasp aloud. The characters are all well developed, and it's worth reading it.
Any thoughts, people?
