The Delusion: We All Have Our Demons

By Laura Gallier

Book Overview

Mysterious deaths and spiritual warfare collide in this gripping, 2018 Christy Award-winning young adult novel.

By March of Owen Edmonds's senior year, eleven students at Masonville High School have committed suicide. Amid the media frenzy and chaos, Owen tries to remain levelheaded―until he endures his own near-death experience and wakes to a distressing new reality.

The people around him suddenly appear to be shackled and enslaved.

Owen frantically seeks a cure for what he thinks are crazed hallucinations, but his delusions become even more sinister. An army of hideous, towering beings, unseen by anyone but Owen, are preying on his girlfriend and classmates, provoking them to self-destruction.

Owen eventually arrives at a mind-bending conclusion: he's not imagining the evil―everyone else is blind to its reality. He must warn and rescue those he loves . . . but this proves to be no simple mission. Will he be able to convince anyone to believe him before it's too late?

Owen's heart-pounding journey through truth and delusion will force him to reconsider everything he believes. He both longs for and fears the answers to questions that are quickly becoming too dangerous to ignore.

Loved it!!

This book was so good. I could not put it down. It had a good message without being over-the-top preachy. But it did show how we make choices that send us down the wrong road. It showed the spiritual world and how our actions either help or hinder. This book is definitely worth reading and I can't wait to read books 2 and 3 in the series.
