Unleashed from caves used for occult rituals, a microscopic evil invades the world--an infestation that deceives, blinds, kills, and then spreads and kills again. Is it natural, supernatural, or both? An embittered Professor McKinney must rejoin the Harbingers team in order to discover the truth and confront a monster bent on destroying humankind.
FROM HIS WEBSITE: With more than 12 million novels in print, Frank Peretti is nothing short of a publishing phenomenon and has been called “America’s hottest Christian novelist.”
Peretti is a natural storyteller who, as a youngster in Seattle, regularly gathered the neighborhood children for animated storytelling sessions. After graduating from high school, he began playing banjo with a local bluegrass group. He and his wife were married in 1972, and Peretti soon moved from touring with a pop band to launching a modest Christian music ministry. Peretti later spent time studying English, screen writing and film at UCLA and then assisted his father in pastoring a small Assembly of God church. In 1983, he gave up his pastoring position and began taking construction jobs to make ends meet. While working at a local ski factory, he began writing This Present Darkness, the book that would catapult him into the public eye. After numerous rejections from publishers and a slow start in sales, word-of-mouth enthusiasm finally lifted This Present Darkness onto a tidal wave of interest in spiritual warfare. The book appeared on Bookstore Journal’s bestseller list every month for more than eight years. Peretti’s two spiritual warfare novels, This Present Darkness (1998) and Piercing the Darkness (1989), captivated readers, together selling more than 3.5 million copies. The Oath was awarded the 1996 Gold Medallion Award for best fiction.
For kids, Peretti wrote The Cooper Kids Adventure Series (Crossways and Tommy Nelson), which remains a best-selling series for children with sales exceeding 1 million copies. In August 2000, Peretti released the hilarious children’s audiocassette series titled Wild and Wacky Totally True Bible Stories, reprising his role as Mr. Henry, the offbeat substitute Sunday School teacher found in two Visual Bible for Kids videos.
Peretti released his first-ever non-fiction book, The Wounded Spirit in 2000, which quickly became a best-seller. The book addresses the pain of “wounded spirits” and was written as a result of painful childhood experiences.
Frank Peretti and his wife, Barbara Jean, live in the Western U.S. In spite of sudden fame and notoriety, Frank still lives a simple, well-rounded life that includes carpentry, banjo making, sculpturing, bicycling and hiking. He is also an avid pilot.
Another great book in this series. What is causing all these mysterious things to happen as we read in each of these books so far... When will we know the truth... I for one can't wait to read the next book!!!
No suspense, no crime, no protagonist or antagonist. I found this book to be so unlike his other books that if I had to read it not knowing who the author was, I never would have guessed it was he.
The battle of good vs evil continues in this great book, by Frank Peretti! This one reads like a science fiction novel. I won't spoil it, by giving away too many details, but picture elements like killer fungi, and floating golden orbs. It was fun! You definitely need to read the first several books, before reading this one. I'm looking forward to book 7!
It just keeps getting better with each installment offering a few new clues to the spiritual battle the team is fighting. I love a good mystery and can't wait to get to the bottom of this one
This amalgamation of great Christian fiction writers has produced a thought provoking and entertaining series about the battle for good and evil. The characters are as diverse as the authors. Your memory better be good if you wait too long between books in the series though.
