"Fantastic Read"
The story is a wonderful and the characters so real. The spiritual battles were a stark reminder of what we know to be true but cannot see and of the power of prayer.
Although the battles were very effective I found them to be a bit too long.
I couldn't put it down and cried several times I hope there is or will be a sequel.
"AWESOME!!!"
This book is AWESOME!!! I have personally been asking God to reveal to me more and more of when and where He is working in my life and this book helped me to see that even when God is working in others' lives, it will spill over to my life. It is very easy to imagine yourself right there with the individuals in this book. And I just love how everything tied together in the end! To say again, this book is AWESOME!!
"Disc one is over change to disc two........."
I read both books years ago. When I saw they were available I figured hey why not. The stories are not too bad, not pulizer material but they were entertaining. Not meant for children. Does make me more aware of Ephesians 6, the battles that rage around us everyday that we are not aware of and most importantly the power of our prayers.
Here is is my peeve on this book, if Audible is going to sell a book then please take out the instructions to change a disc. I mean really was it just too much trouble to edit??? This is mp3 media we purchase not dvd media. REALLY ANNOYING TO LISTEN TO "This is the end of disc one. Please change to disc two." every hour or less!!!!!
"Great Book, Great Narrator, Bad Audio"
Frank Peretti writes another great book and Kevin Foley does a great job narrating it.
However (at the time of this posting) Audible did a poor job creating the Audio Files. Evidentally this book was "ripped" right from the CDs and put into audible format.
About every hour you hear "end of disc...please insert disc...".
Author's Writing... 5 Stars
Narrator's Reading... 5 Stars
Audible's Formatting... 3 Stars.
"Outstanding"
This book was written in 1987 or 88 and it is so very interesting how the issues of that day are what we as believers are dealing with today. This book kept me on edge and I never knew which direction the author would go. I HIGHLY recommend this book. It reminds the reader that we are in an unseen (daily) war.
"Great story..."
This is a great story that I read many years ago and love it. I bought this audible to share with a family member who has dyselxia. The narration is dull. Not a good performance of a great story by Paretti. It wasn't much difference with the narration than listening to the computer-generated text to speech, which we also use quite often.
The most interesting was the view of parallel worlds, the one humans see with our five senses and the supernatural realm of angels and demons.
The narrator needed to be someone with more variance in his/her voice and expression.
No, the book is much too long to listen to in one sitting.
"Fantastic story."
This is the world and the battles that we are facing and living in everyday now. These issues are true to life and I can see who some of the players are today in our own country. Classic light vs darkness and how we are affected and manipulated. I will be keeping this one to read another day.
"Totally worth the credit :)"
It was a great listen. I have listened to it several times and enjoyed it every time!
"Great Read. Even better listen."
Near the top. I don't do fiction often. I listen to non-fiction History
Hard to choose. It all fit so well. All made a great whole.
The different voices brought the story to life. I could feel the evil in the demons.
The eternal fight.
