Book excerpt: In this madcap novella brimming with the ethical quandaries and sardonicism of The Good Place, K. J. Parker's Pulling the Wings Off Angels delivers a whirlwind theological paradox that calls into question the existence of God, repentance, destiny--and angels. Long ago, a wealthy businessman stole an angel and hid her in a chapel, where she remains imprisoned to this day. That's the legend, anyway. When a clerical student find himself in debt to a local gangster, he's given an ultimatum--deliver the angel his grandfather once kidnapped, or forfeit various body parts in payment.
