I am writing a novel for which a solid grasp of Cathlic teaching on angels is necessary. Thus far I have read or purchased:
  1. Peter Kreeft, Angels and Demons
  2. Fr. Pascal Parente, The Angels
  3. Mike Aquilina, Angles of God.
I know the Suma Theologica has a lot on angels, but that is a bit heavier than I need. Are there other popular texts, but using Orthodox Catholic teaching, that others would recommend? Thanks in advance.
 
This is a fairly quick read - a six-part series on angels written by Deacon Doug McManaman, a Religion and Philosophy teacher at Father Michael McGivney Catholic Academy in Markham, Ontario, Canada.

Another that would help you is Cdl. Jean Danielou’s The Angels and Their Mission According to the Fathers of the Church.

You can of course also read the various sections on Angels in the Catechism of the Catholic Church for the actual Church teachings on angels.

Here is the online CCC. Just go to index.
