Archangel's Viper
Enter New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh’s breathtakingly passionate Guild Hunter world with the story of a woman who isn’t a vampire or an angel... or human...
Once a broken girl known as Sorrow, Holly Chang now prowls the shadowy gray underground of the city for the angels. But it’s not her winged allies who make her a wanted woman, rather the unknown power coursing through her veins. Brutalized by an insane archangel, she was left with the bloodlust of a vampire, the ability to mesmerize her prey, and a poisonous bite.
Now someone has put a bounty on her head...
Venom is one of the Seven, Archangel Raphael’s private guard, and a man as infuriating as he is seductive. A centuries-old vampire, his fangs dispense a poison deadlier than Holly’s. But even if Venom can protect Holly from those hunting her, he might not be able to save himself... because the strange, violent power inside Holly is awakening...
No one is safe.

Nalini Singh
When Nalini Singh writes, the impossible becomes intimate. In her worlds, psychic networks unravel under the pressure of suppressed desire, angels rule cities from the skies, and love—bold, dangerous, transformative—is never just a subplot. A master of genre fusion, Singh doesn’t simply blend paranormal romance with urban fantasy; she reinvents what those genres can do, infusing them with emotional intensity and social complexity that linger long after the final page.
Born in Suva, Fiji, and raised in New Zealand, Singh grew up straddling cultures, languages, and landscapes—an experience that left its mark on her imagination. Before becoming a full-time author, she taught English in Japan, a chapter of her life that gave her a deep appreciation for global storytelling traditions and a sense of discipline that now anchors her prolific writing career. That balance between immersive world-building and narrative control defines much of her work.
Guild Hunter
High above the cities, where skyscrapers pierce the clouds and angels cast long shadows over mortal streets, power is more than a title—it’s a force that can shape or shatter the world. In this hauntingly seductive series, ancient immortals rule from celestial heights, vampires serve at their whim, and those who dare to rebel are hunted by one of their own.
Guild Hunter consists of seventeen primary books, and includes one additional book that complement the series but is not considered mandatory reads and series is set to expand with the upcoming release of one more book. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
