Succumbing to Gravity by Richard Farnsworth
Greg used to be an angel, but that was an eternity ago. Back when he was Araqiel, part of the celestial chorus. Back before he gave in to his temptations. Before he fell. Now he roams the wet streets of a hopeless city, feeding his addictions and punishing himself for sins that cannot be forgiven. But when a desperate girl and a host of vengeful demons cross his path, Greg must choose between redemption and damnation. For him, the two may not be so different.



Stories have been told of beings that once walked among mortals, standing between mankind and the darkness. They were called by many names; Egregori, Irin, even Angels. Greg was once such being of grace. But he lost his way and now he's damned and alone on the street with humanity's detritus, heroin addiction is his only respite.
A chance meeting with a haunted young woman threatens to provoke a genuine emotional response from him. She is an immigrant, alone herself, and hunted by a terror Greg knows only too well. Now he has to make a choice, be the hero he once was, or again turn to the needle when he is needed most.
