Synopsis: From the front flap of the Ace first edition: ""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.
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.
It wasn't the corpse of someone who looked like him, but Dante himself..."
With these simple yet startling words, award-winning author Sean Stewart lures us into his most imaginative work of fiction. Resurrection Man 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."
