Publisher's summary

John Barrett, anchorman for News Six at Five, has a problem. He's caught his producer skewing a story to suit her own prejudices, then lying to cover her tracks. The "accidental" death of John's father is also now in question, after the father's controversial testimony. And a young girl has been murdered, and John is the only one who can prove it.

GREAT character driven book

A fascinating book, dampened somewhat by extraneous and boring details of the news industry. Still, the tremendous research proved to be intriguing. As compared to most of his novels, the plot creeps in the beginning but takes on life as characters build and fade beneath his golden pen. Two things keep me from rating the book as a 5-star read - voluminous news details not pertinent to the story and the total absence of the governor's wife's involvement throughout family tragedy. On the other hand, Peretti's sheer genius stirs every passion in my heart and culminates with an awesome tenderness that creates an unforgettable ending. I can't wait to see what he writes next.

Amazing how this story could be playing out today. Prophet is truly a prophetic work of fiction.

An Amazing Story: Narrator Lacking

If you could sum up Prophet in three words, what would they be?

I would sum this up with the phrase, "Amazing Story: Narrator?"

What did you like best about this story?

Frank Peretti captured the struggle of the characters life wondrously.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

The narrator placed far too much emphasis on acting out different characters voices, and selected a hill-billy voice for the prophet, which was not how I would have imagined him.

Any additional comments?

This is a great story and is worth listening to despite the weaknesses of the narrator.
