Publisher's summary

Frank Peretti thrills millions with his suspense-filled, best-selling inspirational Darkness series, which portrays unforgettable confrontations between angelic and demonic forces. The first book in the series, This Present Darkness, topped Christian fiction lists. Now, the great spiritual war continues in Piercing the Darkness.

In the small town of Bacon's Corner, powerful demons are working to ensnare the souls of the townspeople. A woman has been murdered, the Christian school is under attack, and the town is divided by a legal struggle. As heavenly beings rally to aid the faithful, gigantic evil ones are on the alert, looking for any sign of weakness.

Each fast-paced chapter of this novel is filled with vivid descriptions of angels and demons. And the trials of the believers are no less absorbing. Richard Ferrone's dramatic narration highlights each test of faith and truth.

A great follow up to This Present Darkness

A few characters from book one find themselves entangled with a whole new cast of people. This sequel is different enough in its story that it was refreshing. Peretti dives into a bit of a courtroom drama mixed with poignant exploration of spiritual truths in the midst of a secular reality. He brings even more unique characterization to his description of his angels and demons, as the story takes you for a ride with a lot of plot points that seem unconnected at first but all come together nicely in the end.

The audio recording and voice acting of this audio book was done well too and not distracting, helps bring to life the characters and the narrative. Overall an enjoyable read/listen.
