Juro que já vi postarem isso aqui, mas algo pra eu colocar oq tenho, oq já li e oq falta ler e tal

As a Brazilian, I must admit I really like the Angélica tetralogy written by Eduardo Spohr. It is a series made up of The Battle of the Apocalypse, a standalone book that was the first to be released and is probably the best known, and a trilogy called "Filhos do Éden" (Children of Eden) set in the same universe (plus an illustrated guide that explains the timeline, political system, RPG stats, etc.). It’s a fantasy series featuring angels in modern times, as well as portions set in medieval times, the future, and so on.

My personal favorite is Filhos do Éden: Anjos da Morte (Angels of Death), which shows an angel working as an informant for the celestials during World War II, the Vietnam War, and the Cold War (since angels do not have a complete view of the human world).
Since I'm not that great with words, here is the synopsis for each book:

The Battle of the Apocalypse tells the story of Ablon, a celestial general expelled from paradise for defying the tyranny of the archangels, incredibly powerful beings who took control of heaven. Relegated to Earth, Ablon travels the world for over five thousand years, meeting sorcerers, mortals, and gods while observing the evolution of the planet, until he is summoned to fight the great Battle of the Apocalypse, which marks the end of days and the awakening of the Almighty.

In Filhos do Éden: Herdeiros de Atlântida (Heirs of Atlantis), we follow the journey of Kaira, a fire angel who loses her memory during a mission on Earth. With the help of other celestials, she recovers her senses and continues the task she was originally assigned: to find the ruins of Atlantis and uncover the mysteries of this ancient civilization. The plot is set against the backdrop of a civil war raging in paradise between the tyrannical forces of the archangel Michael and the revolutionary troops of Gabriel.

Filhos do Éden: Anjos da Morte (Angels of Death) focuses on Denyel, a cherub tasked with infiltrating human armies and tracking the wars of the 20th century, reporting back to the archons—scholarly and wise angels who record the course of the world and the singularities of the universe. Disguised as a soldier, Denyel witnesses not only the major battles of history but also the degradation of governments, from World War II to the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Filhos do Éden: Paraíso Perdido (Paradise Lost) brings together old and new heroes in the fight against a common enemy: Metatron, the most powerful of the angels, who managed to escape his prison in heaven and now threatens the planet. Dubbed the King of Men on Earth, Metatron plans to end the tyranny of the archangels and prevent the apocalypse, aiming to become the one true god of the world. Paradise Lost takes place across two distinct timelines: in the present, following Kaira and Denyel's journey to destroy Metatron, and in the past, following General Ablon, who holds the task of defeating and imprisoning this dangerous adversary.

Estou lendo a tetralogia Angélica do Spohr e Anjos da Morte está sendo meu favorito até o momento. Queria recomendações de outros livros que misturem fantasia e guerra moderna, quais vocês mais recomendariam? Também aceito outras recomendações de livro de guerra assim. Sinopse do livro abaixo pra quem não conhece:

“Desde eras longínquas, os malakins, anjos estudiosos e sábios, observam em silêncio o progresso do homem. Mas eis que chega o século XX, e com ele as armas modernas, a poluição das indústrias, afastando os mortais da natureza divina, alargando as fronteiras entre o nosso mundo e as sete camadas do céu.
Isolados no paraíso, incapazes agora de enxergar o planeta, esses anjos solicitaram a ajuda dos “exilados”, celestiais pacíficos, que havia anos atuavam na terra. Sua tarefa, a partir de então, seria participar das guerras humanas, de todas as guerras, para anotar as façanhas militares, os movimentos de tropas, e depois relatá-los a seus superiores alados.
Sob o disfarce de soldados comuns, esse grupo esteve presente desde as praias da Normandia aos campos de extermínio nazistas, das selvas da Indochina ao declínio da União Soviética. Embora muitos não desejassem matar, foi isso o que lhes foi ordenado, e o que infelizmente acabaram fazendo.
Repleto de batalhas épicas, magia negra e personagens fantásticos, Filhos do Éden: Anjos da Morte é também um inquietante relato sobre o nosso tempo, uma crítica à corrupção dos governos, aos massacres e extremismos, um alerta para o que nos tornamos e para o que ainda podemos nos tornar.”
