Summary
In a world where faith has been sold to the highest bidder, and fallen angels are displayed as trophies of a corrupt humanity, Dean Winchester believes in nothing but the value of the next heist. Together with his brother Sam, he accepts an assignment that promises riches: infiltrate a Gothic cathedral in England to steal an angel blade.
But an easy theft turns out to be much more than they imagined. Castiel, a fallen angel, is chained like a macabre exhibit, his grace on the verge of being extinguished. With him comes a shocking revelation: Heaven has been sealed, the angels banished, and the world left to rot in the hands of a corrupt religious organization that has controlled society for years.
Between groups of religious fanatics, angels corrupted by the Fall, and secrets hidden deep within the Vatican, the Winchesters find themselves at the center of a fight to restore order and keep the world from going even further to hell.

Summary
A year after Dean kicked Cas out of the bunker, two bodies in Black Falls River, Wisconsin turn up charred and smoking, flash-cooked by powerful and supernatural lightning strikes. When Sam and Dean find glittering black feathers, stormy weather, and unusual electrical activity they call in backup to help them take out their target: A thunderbird.
---
Castiel is just trying to get by in a human world as best he can. His grace is recovering from what Metatron did to him, but the process has been slow, painful, and, most recently, violent. After he accidentally kills a human, he struggles to leave this tentative new life and start over yet again. Unfortunately, he's forced to when hunters come sniffing around for the creature responsible for the supernatural death.

Summary
Sure, Dean’s cursed to die—cursed to have his breath stolen from him—on his twenty-fourth birthday. Uh-huh, thanks for that, Mom. Some real Rapunzel bullshit, there.
But here’s the thing: Dean’s a hunter. He’s got iron around his neck, jade on his wrists, and Latin on his tongue. Ain’t no fucking curse gonna take him and then move on to Sammy after.
He doesn’t expect that his curse has a name.
But what kind of name is ‘Castiel,’ anyway?

Summary
“Uh, Cas?” Dean says, looking between him and the girl, who clearly knows exactly who he is. “Who’s the kid?”
Cas keeps glancing at the exit like he’s thinking about running away. “Dean, this is Claire Novak. She’s Jimmy’s daughter.”
“Wait…” Dean looks between the two of them, and the resemblance is suddenly both strange and obvious. The bright blue eyes, the messy hair. “She’s—”
“He’s wearing my dead dad,” Claire says, voice biting. Cas flinches, but Claire hardly pauses before she rounds on him. “What the fuck is he doing here?”
Cas, unfazed by the rage rolling off of her, turns to Claire. “How was your history presentation?”Follow up from Lost in the Wilderness, it's helpful but not essential to read the first one.

Summary
Dean doesn't even get halfway through explaining before Bobby starts laughing. When he lets himself think about it for more than five seconds, Dean can almost see Bobby's point: he's faced down demons, witches, vampires, werewolves, ghosts, angels, and Satan himself and now he's been defeated by the God damn Midwest.
