<b>From the front flap of the Ace first edition:</b> "<i>"Dante stared and stared at the corpse, but a blindness waited behind his eyes. It was as if he couldn't see the body; couldn't grasp it, or what it meant. <p>He had never felt fear like this, not in the worst moments of his life. The angel madness was thick in him, and with it came the inevitable dread: a metallic horror that slid like a sword down this throat. His skin crawled as if trying to escape; goose bumps sprang up in patches on his srms and neck and prickled uncontrollably across his face. He eyes were open but he couldn't see. His mouth tasted like oil. <p>It wasn't the corpse of someone who looked like him, but Dante himself..."</i> <p>With these simple yet startling words, award-winning author Sean Stewart lures us into his most imaginative work of fiction. <i>Resurrection Man</i> is the story of an angel raised among mortals, reluctant to use his powers but ultimately compelled to fulfill his fate. It is a tale of magic and mystery, guilt and redemption. A Pandora's box of miracles for a world on the edge of despair."
