Terrific Writing - Outstanding Narration

Frank Peretti is a master storyteller. His writing is riveting. Couldn’t stop listening as Jack Sondericker performed the many voices needed to make you look around to see if the characters were in the room. I loved this in its entirety!

Eye opening & wonderful story!

I loved this book!! I feel it gives you an idea of what’s happening in the heavenly realms! I also feel it gives Christians who are true believers & are surrendered to Jesus Christ the confidence to do spiritual warfare!! I highly recommend this book!!

Excellent!

This book makes you think about the importance of prayer. It also reminds you of the spiritual warfare in the world. It most definitely kept my interest. The narrator did an excellent job.

memory from an earlier time.

I was.prompted to reread this, but have so little time. I really enjoyed being able to turn driving time into reading time.

The book as all of Peretti's books are great. The only issue with this is the recording is bad

STILL A FAVORITE!!!!

One of the best stories written on spiritual warfare. I first read this in 1990 and it never gets old. I learned how to pray effectively after reading this.

Awesome

Thoroughly enjoyed this book, not only is it easy to understand, but exciting how the author describes the various scenes. Playing out the suspense with each chapter as one builds on another. The delivery made by the narrator was superlative drawing you in as if you were standing next to the character to perceive each step, breath, and tear experienced there in.
