Pray

The Revelation Chronicles

By: John Prescott

Narrated by: Wayne June

Length: 15 hrs and 59 mins

Publisher's summary

The year is 2016, and America is no more. The United States, Canada, and Mexico now comprise a single, unified front to the world: the North American Union. Implanted ID chips are soon to become mandatory for every citizen of the NAU, and Trez Sleighton, a disgruntled ex-Army officer, takes to the mountains of Colorado to come to terms with the changing world-and his own hand in the whole mess.

Then sounds the trumpet.

Around the planet, people simply disappear.

In their wake, monsters of legend suddenly roam free to terrorize those who have been left behind. The legendary Nephilim, half-angels who struggle with their own demons, walk the earth in both darkness and light. The world's most beloved celebrity, movie star Samouel Gallo, comes forward to make a long-awaited announcement that might mean world peace-or world damnation.

Meanwhile, a handful of the remaining citizens of the NAU feel the call to go west. Stricken by the loss of their loved ones, alienated by the inhumanity that has consumed their cities, these select few are moved by an inexplicable impulse to converge on a small town tucked away in the Rocky Mountains... a town most of them have never even heard about. As their paths turn toward Shaleford, CO, where Trez is struggling to understand an apocalyptic truth, the rest of the world waits to hear what tidings Samouel Gallo will bring. Is he the man of legend-a Bringer of Peace? Is he the archenemy of old? Is he... the Antichrist?

Open the pages of Pray and journey with those who set out to fight for their salvation as the world races to its horrific conclusion.

The Book of Revelation just got scarier.

Interesting

I really like the book but I really hate that the author chose “stupid” speech for Nettie. I believe this character perpetuates negative stereotypes unnecessarily.

I am really afraid of how she will be portrayed n subsequent books....

I will have to pray on whether or not to purchase more from this author.

Not a Christian Novel - More like Stephen King

Is there anything you would change about this book?

Remove the unnecessary Violence.

Would you ever listen to anything by John Prescott again?

No

Any additional comments?

As a Christian I was expecting a more accurate scriptural treatment of the subject. There were numerous errors as to Bible prophesy and the book was extremely violent. I felt if it were a secular book it would be considered well written in a Stephen King way. Frankly most women will find it offensive as the portayal of women is of shrinking whining creatures and the black woman is particularly type cast to a Gone With the Wind character. If you are looking for a violent last days book that has little to do with true Christian prophesy then this is your book. If you are a Christian who has studied eschatology you will be frustrated with lthe inconsistencies. Werewolves for example???? Good and bad Nephilim on the earth. I thought the reader did a pretty good job and would listen to books read by him again.

Really good but...

Would you consider the audio edition of Pray to be better than the print version?

Wayne June is awesome! He had the right voice for this book. It was a good book with the right man to read it.

What did you like best about this story?

I liked that it followed the Bible and the terror that will come with the rapture

Have you listened to any of Wayne June’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, But I hope he will do more of this type of book

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

yes

Any additional comments?

The only problem I had with this book is the cursing of Christians. I know that people curse and I really liked this book especially with salvation in it but I could have done with less cursing

Pretty Good!

Would you listen to Pray again? Why?

Yes, to update my memory when the next one comes out.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Pray?

When the President was eaten in his office, his whole team was eaten too.

Which scene was your favorite?

When the anti-christ turned on his step-mother.

Good Story - Superb Narration

Where does Pray rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Someone described this book as "Left Behind meets Steven King's The Stand". I couldn't have described it better. It's been a while since I enjoyed getting lost in a book.

Have you listened to any of Wayne June’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This is the first time I've heard Wayne June narrate. For me, the reader makes or breaks a book, and I've returned many good books because I didn't like the narrator. Wayne June's performance was superb. I hope more publishers of audio books will use his services. He definitely goes on my search list for new books. Would love to hear him perform some of my favorite books like the Game of Throne series.

The Adult Version of Left Behind

John has put out a very good piece of work here. I would not say it was better than Left Behind, but it is at least as good. It has a darker feel and seems to me to be written for adults. I enjoyed this from start to finish and would recommend it to anyone that likes works relating to the Book of Revelations.

I think John has taken several liberties with the Biblical writings and attempts to explain it away through one small passage. In the book there are werwolves, and vampires that hunt God's people. Werewolves and Vampires were never mentioned in the Bible. John takes the position that God had instructed the writer not to record some of what he saw, and it was during this time that the writer observed the monsters. John took a huge leap with the Worlds church. The leader was taken from the priests in the Vatican. The anti christ then turns this priest into a Vampire. This vampire and many others have to feed all of the time during the book. The evil is shone to be present during this portion of the rapture. The Bible states that there will be no outward sign of the evil until after the anti christ has risen from the dead. That is the second really good thing about the book, it leaves room for speculation and debate.

can't wait for the second book. when is it coming

when is the second book coming to audible. I want to be notified when it comes available. awsome book

A STORY THAT NEEDS TO BE TOLD

What made the experience of listening to Pray the most enjoyable?

THIS WAS MY FIRST AUDIBLE BOOK AND I WAS SOOO PLEASED WITH IT. IT WAS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME, THE NARRATING BY WAYNE JUDE WAS TOTALLY HILARIOUS, AND ALSO HAD ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT, I LOVED IT.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Pray?

WHEN MICHAEL AND THE WEREWOLF FAUGHT. IT WAS WRITTEN SO AWESOME.

Which scene was your favorite?

WHEN NETTIE PUNCHED THE GUY IN THE GROCERY STORE.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES IT KEPT ME WANTING MORE AND MORE.

Any additional comments?

BUY IT, IT'S WORTH IT! :)

Good Book like LeftBehind

Where does Pray rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This book is one of my top 10

Who was your favorite character and why?

I liked a few of them but Voices and the Nephilim, These characters add a little bit of twist compared to left behind

What about Wayne June’s performance did you like?

At first i didn't like his style but after getting through the first few chapters i think Wayne really got into the book and did a good job with the character's voices and the added effects really made the story come alive.

Who was the most memorable character of Pray and why?

The archangel and Nettie

Any additional comments?

If you liked Left Behind and Stephenking you will like this book, The Author did his research and added some of his own interpretations to keep Pray from sounding like a left behind clone. There is not alot of scripture being read or quoted so the reader has to keep that in mind about this book. . This is an Inspirational series so i don't expect it to be so literal but i like the Author's vision and I can't wait for the next book

A little more editing would have been nice

What did you like best about Pray? What did you like least?

The cussing I could live without. I get enough of that in the real world.

What could John Prescott have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

omit the cussing. Or file his book in the non-faith dept

Do you think Pray needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

no, the 1st wasn't even good
