This book is third person omniscient. The narrator knows the thoughts and feelings of the characters. I know this because in the book it says "Langstrat snapped out of her trance and could feel the psychic energy in the room collapsing." This shows that we know someone's thoughts and feelings. This is why my book is third person omniscient.

Protagonist:
The main characters are Marshall Hogan and Hank Busche. The part that I am in the person that is mainly focused on is Marshall Hogan. I know this because it says " The others moved on but Marshall stayed behind". This proves my point because we stay with Marshall but the others move ahead.

The setting in this story is in a small town called Ashton. This town has a small church that much of the community attends. This book doesn't tell what time frame this is but I know that this is before cell phones because not once has a cell phone been mentioned. The church is a big detail in this story and I know this because it says " it is the center of resistance" This is how I know that the church is important.

Genre: I think that this genre is scientific fiction because it has features that match the genre of scientific fiction. For example on the back of the book it says "this book brings spiritual warfare and the necessity of prayer."
This is sci-fi because it shows things such as spiritual warfare which may be imagined which is a sign of scientific fiction.

This is a summary of what has happened so far in my book. In the beginning there is a little town called Ashton. Every year there is a festival in, but this year there is a little more that is happening then just a festival. There are dark spirits around and the hosts of heaven have to band together to stop it. This is as much as I have read.
