Reviews

[Sarah · Rating 4 out of 5]

Here's another compelling piece of fiction (also by a Catholic author). Though I am usually annoyed by things apocalyptic, I was engaged by this novel. It bills itself as a "contemporary spiritual thriller," and I guess that describes it as well as anything. There was good characterization and a fast-moving plot. I didn't explore the footnotes, but there seems to be a wealth of actual information referenced, which could lead to further reading. What I enjoyed most was that I didn't figure it out. Will I read the next book in the trilogy? We'll see. I just might.

Excellent read. Full of twists and turns, and deeply enmeshed in Christianity. Takes on some difficult subjects with real life resolutions.
