While classmates die, Megan, with the help of an angel, Johnny, and a team of friends will face the fight of their lives as they battle Judas.

The fight between good and evil is surrounding us day and night. Angels and demons are fighting before our very eyes and no one can see them. Well almost no one. Megan though that her summer was going to be normal, but she discovers something shocking. She can see the good and evil around her. When she gets back to school she discovers an angel and they become fast friends and none too soon. A boy that goes by many names appears and starts to tear apart their lives. No one knows who will getWOW!!!! What a powerful book! I couldn't put it down. It left me on a cliffhanger and now I *have* to read the other books! She does a wonderful job of helping people understand that there is a Spiritual battle going on. Angles and Demons are real and they are here. Just because we can't see them doesn't mean they're not here or not real.I read the Kindle version and did see some typos. Hear for here and a couple of words like that that spell check will not pick up on. But, overall I REALLY,
This book really drew me in. It fits well into the supernatural young adult genre, but it doesn't descend into cliche. Neither does it just try to copy the formula of other succesful stories.The plot moves quickly, and the characters feel well-rounded. The story deals with a lot of different themes and issues.Megan is a sympathetic protagonist, who is struggling to learn how to live with her newfound abilities. The dark angel Jude is the ideal villain for a story like this, chillingly evil and
(2.5)Nothing wrong with a Christian novel, just wasn't expecting it to be very black and white, good vs. evil. I'm not Christian, nor am I an atheist, but this felt preachy. A little too much religion in it, I remember reading The Dark Divine and people that had too much religion in it, and it wasn't really even a big factor in that story. But this? I dont know. I didn't mind it, its just, kind of annoying, I mean I get why the author did it and why she did it to get some of the story across,
*I received this book free from the author in exchange for an honest review.I thought the premise was interesting and I generally enjoy Christian novels and suspense novels. The story was a good one, but I struggled with some of the juvenile dialogue. I guess I got a little bogged down with the teenage lingo, etc. That said, a pretty good read for someone who enjoys the 15-year-old world.
It is odd looking at the reviews of this one. It is either low or high but no middle ground. Those who rank it low say it is because of the book promoting Christian values. Well, in the preview it states that it is written by a Christian so of course these values will be evident. I do think that the book held my interest which is generally why I read. As a guy, I wasn't into some of the teen romance drama but the book states that this will be included so I didn't complain. The book did make my
Bringing Light, Casting ShadowsMany friends and blog readers may be offended that I have read and am reviewing a book sometimes classified as "Christian Horror." Calling it an oxymoron or worse, some people say horror has no place in Christianity.What is appropriate to write and call Christian is a big area of disagreement. Workshops, seminars and conferences teach biblical standards. I have different beliefs and standards from Lisa Grace. Many people will reject this book without reading it
