Captivating.....thrilling......mysterious....with a bit of a romantic flair

This was my first fiction novel and to my surprise I thoroughly enjoyed it. The author has tremendous thinking, imaginative, and writing skills. I'll be reading it again before Book 2 comes out just in case I missed something the first time. The realization of evil all around us is vividly revealed before your eyes as different characters, personalities and types of lifestyles unfold and become real. The change in story lines will keep you on your toes. Makes for great reading. Excellent Doug!

Deceiving the Elect, the Page Turner!

I bought this book because I read it has the page turning effect of the Left Behind Series. I was not disappointed. From page one you will feel like you're spying on the lives of characters, both good and detestable and you will get caught up in the circumstances that mold them. When you turn the last page you'll be yearning for Book 2. This book is a must read!

Good Read, Great Storytelling

This book was a kick with some quirky characters and some scary reallife parallels to religious nuts today, Id read it again. Like Judgment Day by Jane Jensen and Michael Crictons State of Fear. Good for people in cults.

Fascinating!!!

I've read a quite a few Christian novels and I have to say that reading this one was a unique experience. It exposes so much of what really goes on in the world today and covers so many things that many writers just don't have the guts to touch upon! I found it impossible to put down and took it with me everywhere until I was done. Even if one does not believe or agree with everything in this novel (hey, how often do people react nicely to the truth?), it's a fascinating work that'll pull you right into it and you just have to fall in love with the style and characters, regardless of your beliefs. While Stacey is trying to pick up the pieces of his broken life, Micheal and Joshua search for a perfect church, and Bronte is just too confused to focus too long on reality and many others are too disillusioned and spiritually traumatized to even care anymore, it's awesome to see God at work and faithful in His promises
