For Angel, life as a vampire was a constant thrill. Power, danger. But in the end, it was all about the kill -- until he killed the wrong girl. "Gypsies, in my experience, are heavily into vengeance. They cursed me. Gave me back my soul. I had to live with everything I'd done and I had to live forever. It took another woman to show me that my endless life was worth living." Buffy the Vampire Slayer was Angel's first true love, but the relationship was doomed from the start -- a moment of true happiness would cause Angel to lose his soul forever. So he left -- Sunnydale, Buffy, and everything else meaningful to him. "Alive for 244 years, I thought I'd seen everything. Then I came to L.A." City of Angels. Run by powerful forces, agents of pure evil. It's a city hard on its human population. If Angel wants to save himself, he's going to have to save them ... somehow. With the help of two unlikely allies -- a half-demon and a ex -- May Queen -- he's going to set up shop ... And keep watch over his city.
