The Darkangel Trilogy by Meredith Ann Pierce is a young adult fantasy series that began with The Darkangel in 1982. The trilogy follows Aeriel, who confronts a vampyre called the Darkangel and gradually discovers her own role in saving the world.
The series continues with A Gathering of Gargoyles (1984) and The Pearl of the Soul of the World (1990). Pierce’s writing is unusually lyrical for young adult fiction, and the world-building blends fantasy and science fiction in original ways. The series has maintained a devoted readership since its publication.
