Frank Peretti

I can't drag myself away from reading Frank Peretti's "This Present Darkness". I read another of his books "The Visitation" a couple of years ago, and thought it was quite a gripping read. Then I happened to see a copy of "This Present Darkness" lying around when I was "between books" so I decided to give it a go.

Wow! It's as "can't put me down" as any Harry Potter book! The story is one of big corporation guys infiltrating a town and gradually taking over the whole place - police, judges, retailers, colleges, churches even. The thing is, these guys are demon-possessed and the takeover marks the start of an epic battle between the Angels, backed by prayer warriors from one small church, and the demons themselves. It's well written, with plenty of twists and turns, and builds to a fantastic climax.

If you haven't read any Peretti, why not give him a try? Millions of people worldwide already have!
