    About this audiobook

    As an Angel, Remy Chandler possesses powers and skills he puts to good use in his chosen profession-but only if the situation calls for it. And the sudden reappearance of the Garden of Eden is definitely one such situation, since the seemingly benevolent Sons of Adam want him to find the Key to the Gates of Eden. But there are those who want the Gates to stay shut, for there is something terrible and dangerous buried in the Garden . . .

    Caught between two warring factions of immortals, Remy must decide how to proceed: find the Key, or not? Desperate for help, he turns to a very old acquaintance-a fallen angel who is sometimes friend, sometimes foe, and always deadly.

      Even though I have read the series completely out of order, this books surprises me every time. I particular loved this book in the series of the suspense and plot. I could guess better at what was to come before the event occurred. The characters were well developed and I truly hope that the author keeps writing more.

      **The ending*** The Son of Adam and Daughter of Eve were left on the Garden of Eden to help the corrupted new species from escaping the garden. Mulville the cop is the hospital after seeing the true angelic world of Remi's. Remi is with Linda and they kiss in the end.
    • 4/5
      I really liked this one. It harkened back to the first book--that sort of tightness and impetus. The hugeness of the story was still there (everything in this series happens at an epic scale) but it still felt Remy-focused, which is what I had missed in the last couple of books.
    • 3/5
      I had a hard time with this one for some reason. I think in part because Sniegoski presents the morning process wrong. I don't have a problem with moving on but I do have a problem with moving on less than a year after the person you claim to love more than anything dies. He seems to have crammed a long morning into 6 months making me think that Angels are very shallow creatures. Simply put, Marlowe has more excuse than Remy for moving on.

      The story itself isn't bad at all and that is from a person who has several degrees in Religious Studies but the story line wasn't as good as the first two books. I sincerely hoped it would be as good as the first two books but it seems to be suffering from the series degeneration that many writers suffer from.

      A Hundred Words for Hate is the fourth book in the Remy Chandler series by Thomas E. Sniegoski. Remy is part angel (Seraphim Remiel), and part human who works as a private investigator out of Boston, Mass. Remiel long ago turned his back on Heaven to live among humans. Remy has had some recent difficulties with remaining human, and not allowing his Angel side to take over completely. It all started after his one true love of his life, Madeline, died after being together for 40 years. It has been a year since she passed, but Maddie still plays a role in this story and in his life. It seems that Remy has created his own fugue state where she is real, and gives him excellent advice about matters of the heart, and of the soul, including telling him it is okay to date others like Linda Somerset who he met after he thought Frances was dead. She also plays a really important role when it seems as though the Seraphim is ready to fall victim for an evil that wants to destroy Eden and Heaven.Remy’s sidekick Marlowe, the black Labrador retriever, is still around as well, and I love the fact that Remy and he often “speak” and understand each other. In fact, Remy can pretty much speak to most animals that he meets, including a frisky cat he comes in contact with while helping an elderly woman locate something she claims to have either lost, or misplaced.The Sons of Adam also ask Remy for assistance in finding the key to the Garden of Eden. They are the actual descendants of the first human made by God, and have been trying to find a way to bring his body back to Paradise. Meanwhile, there's the Daughters of Eve who have A Hundred Words for Hate they use when dealing with Adam’s son. The Daughters haven't forgiven Adam's boys since Eve died. Naturally, in order for the gate to actually open, the Sons need the assistance from the Daughters.Meanwhile in Tartarus, the place built to keep those angels who betrayed the Allfather, Frances is alive and well, and being tortured for information by the Angel Malachi. France, it seems, somehow survived his ordeal when the Morningstar reawakens, and starts redesigning Tartarus for his own use.Frances also holds the key to finding the key to opening the Gardens gates.There are, of course, questions that remain to be answered. One of which is how was Frances able to survive, and what deal did he make with the Morningstar when it came time to save the Garden of Eden from Malachi and his evil creation. The next question is whether or not Remy is actually going to be able to keep Linda as a love interest without something happening to her as well. And, lastly, what will actually happen to Remy’s friendship with Detective Steven after he was nearly killed by the Shaitan saving Fernita Greens life.The one thing that you can count on when reading these books is that Thomas tends to use biblical characters and references when writing this series. This time, of course, it is the Garden of Eden.This book is definitely not for the YA readers since there is no 3 way love affair, or teenaged angst running amok throughout the story. This is about an Angel who makes hard choices while finding his way in the world as a mortal.There obviously has to be more books in the series because those of us who have read from the first book forward, want to see the end game that the Morningstar is playing out with the Allfather, and what role Remy will have in it.
    • 4/5
      I love this series. If you have not read the Remy Chandler novels by Thomas Sniegoski, then you are in for a treat. They are dark and gritty detective tales with a difference: the detective, Remy Chandler, is a Seraphim, a warrior angel who left heaven in search of his own humanity. Remy's angelic nature (and his wings!) are firmly held in check, until occasionally required - generally in battle. One delightful side benefit of an angelic nature is that Remy can speak every language on earth, including that of animals. He has great conversations with Marlowe, his black lab, and occasional (snobby) cats that he comes across. Remy's relationship with Marlowe is well done, and touching, as is his relationship with his best friend, Steven, a matter of fact cop who struggles to adjust to the idea of a supernatural world. But, A Hundred Words for Hate, the fourth in the series, was my least favorite. The premise is great - a direct descendant of Adam hires Remy to find the keys to unlock the garden of Eden, and along the way, Remy tries to work out a detente of sorts with his angelic alter-ego. However, I had difficulty following the plot since the point of view jumped back and forth constantly, the bad guy was just a bit too weird to imagine, and my favorite supporting characters (Marlowe the awesome, enthusiastic dog & Steven) were not featured in the story as much as I would have liked them to have been. It could be that I was just not in the right mood to follow the complicated plot. I am not giving up on the series yet.

      This is the fourth book in the Remy Chandler series. It was a wonderful addition to the series and dealt a lot more with Remy's angelic nature than previous books in the series have.Remy is called to investigate something by the Sons of Adam; these are the actual descendants of Adam who have a facility where they keep Adam's body alive. The Sons of Adam want Remy to find the Key to the Garden of Eden so that when Adam passes he can be laid to rest there. There is also a Guardian of Eden that is killing various people and for reasons of his own he also wants to obtain Adam and open the Garden. Meanwhile Francis struggles in Hell; gaining back memories and finding out who he really is/was. Somehow all of this is tied together an unless Remy can figure out how..and fast the Garden of Eden may unleash horrible creatures onto Earth.This book was an excellent addition to the series. Remy is forced to work with his Seraphim side and struggles be at peace with it. Remy also reenters the world of dating and finally seems willing to start living his life again.We learn a ton about the version of the creation myth in this world and are given a lot of back story especially about Francis. Where previous books have focused mainly on an investigation with some angelic aspects; this book focused almost entirely on Remy's angelic aspect. It was a change of pace and an excellent one. The plot was complex, moved fast and was fun to read about.We meet some new characters and they were good ones. I especially liked Remy's new love interest, although I wish she had been in the story more.There was only really one thing I didn't like about this book and that was the fact that the viewpoint changed so often. We basically read the story from more than five viewpoints; Remy and Francis are the main ones but there are many other characters we hear from as well. This was okay but there were many viewpoints per chapter and that made the story a bit fractured and made it harder to get into the story.As with previous book Sniegoski ends things with a huge angelic battle, similar to the formula he has used for previous books. I am curious to see what he does next with these characters, especially with Francis.Overall a solid addition to the Remy Chandler series. I enjoyed that so much time was spent with the angels and that we got to delve deep into their history. The book was fast-paced and engaging and the new characters introduced intriguing. I did not enjoy the rapid changes in viewpoint, I thought it broke up the story too much. That being said this has been an enjoyable and solid fantasy series and I look forward to reading future books in it.
    • 5/5
      Much anticipated, and it did not fail to deliver. Feels very much like it should have been the 3rd, rather than the 4th, book of the series, given that the 3rd book didn't really touch on the Big Story going on. Greatly enjoyed it, and look forward to the next chapter of Remy Chandler's life.
