wow

This book really shows you how we need to be ready and in prayer at all times. The echo in the narration was a little annoying but I got used to it. Great story, I just got the second book.

A view of the spiritual dimension of life

We can live as if the physical and emotional is all that matters. This story suggests that there is more, both menacing and redemptive. What an exciting alter understanding of what happened in and around us.
And it is also a good exciting read!

Love it

This book is a great Christian novel/ thriller. It struck hard taking a glimpse into the real spiritual war happening that we don’t see. It gave a perfect example of that and made my understanding of it much more serious. I love it. It kept me at the edge of each page !

Exciting and moving

This reminded me of a Ray Bradbury novel only with angels and demons. Old-scool type story, good reminder of the power of prayer.

Excellent encouragement with a great story.

This story is just how the Lord Jesus works among us.

For the saints of the Lord and for the Lamb: Let us pray!

a lot of fun, makes you think for sure.

Definitely something that makes you wonder about what supernatural battles are happening all around you and within you every day.
