Customer Reviews

Wake up call

This review is a wake-up call to those who have written above and hopefully to aspiring readers of the novel. First, the novel is in no way what I would call well written. It is an amateur telling with flat, stereotyped characters. It could use some additional editting. It is extremely fast-paced...things that most writers would take whole chapters describing, Katherine does with a line, but I actually enjoy that...STUFF HAPPENS in this novel. However, it is still a good read--not because of the writing, but because of the insight and tie-ins of new-agey, Art-Bell kind of stuff, like...remote viewing, the antichrist, even a dragon (rawr)! Some potential tag lines... A Catholic version of "Left Behind," with an awareness that the Vatican has always been a place of contention between the forces of light and darkness. A good page-turner with some potentially accurate social/spiritual insight. A wake-up call for troubled times.

Novel that Reads as Screenplay for Current Events!!!!

First, for those who love good writing, this is an exceptionally well written novel. Apart from its relationship to current events or 'end times' this new novel from Kathleen Keating shows her to be a truly great novelist. With religious content, the book is easily compared to the fiction of the late Malachi Martin, but Ms. Keating is a much better writer than even the very talented Fr. Martin. Second, I would recommend this book for those who would like to understand better just what in the world is going on right now in our chaotic world. Since this novel has been released, some real events have eerily mirrored exactly what Ms. Keating has written. She provides the most cogent framework for making sense out of the utter nonsense that pours out of Washington, D.C., the U.N., and other entitites that are now sorry sources of disinformation. The third point I'd like to make is that a person of faith will find this a challenging and confirming read. A Catholic Christian especially will be moved by the plight of the Pope in this novel. Truly a remarkable thing that Ms. Keating can tell a story that brings one to great sorrow but also confirms one's need of God in a positive way.

Great Read!

Whether you agree or disagree with Keating's "end times" view, this is quite the read. The storyline isn't predictable, keeps you reading until the last sentence, and wanting more. If you want a book that keeps you wide awake, makes you think, & probably has some very legitimate relevance in today's world, buy this book.

Riveting

Once again Ms. Keating keeps us on the edge of our seats as we view a changed world through the eyes of her main character, Michael Cross. This skilled Author makes us feel like we know all the characters in her book and we're right beside them as they unravel the mystery that could save us from not only losing our lives, but also our souls. I couldn't up it down. If the End Times is a facinating subject for you, you're going to love this book. I did.

Not Since Fr. Malachi Martin's Novels...

Has any author of the brilliant scholarship, unimaginable courage and frankly - genius - of Ms. Kathleen Keating grabbed the torch that has been passed on to her...in the writing of this blockbuster Classic & Masterpiece. It is a work of Art along with the page-turning read of your life. It matters not whether you agree or disagree with the author's position stated on multi-media venues everywhere. The point is that she has the guts to put it on the page. Our Lord said - "I am the way, the truth, and the life...." Ms. Keating will not compromise, dissemble, or play politics. Her work will stand - as great Catholic/Christian Literature as long as books are still printed. And we all pray that continues by the Grace of The Living God. You will never, ever, regret purchasing this book - and I doubt anyone could part with it. It's a keeper and a collectible already.
