Reading characters becoming aware of spiritual warfare.

The voice of the reader didn’t enhance the story’s development and some of the scenes seemed too long.

The biblical parallels

This incredible journey, of a family that walks a spiritual road to honor their families responsibility of guarding a priceless Christian Artifact for thousands of years is an amazing read.

Confused by other reviews

I took a gamble and so glad I did! One person said it was slow moving, I didn’t see it that way. There are a number of characters and back story. So- it takes a hot minute to get to the meat- but made the story that much richer! And someone claimed not to read if you were a Christian. I am one, and proud of it, but not sure what was so ‘bad’? There were numerous excerpts of sermons that kept you engaged, the overall message of Christ and what He did for us is shared throughout. There is spiritual warfare all around us and this was a book presenting a hypothetical battle. I’m pleased I took the chance. Fixing to read the next one in the series. It’s hard to find ‘good’ Christian fiction unless you are all about romantic love stories. If you want to see more books in this genre, you gotta be willing to support the authors out there writing it! ❤️

Too slow moving

For me, the story moved too slow and there was too much preaching. I'm a Christian and very familiar with the Bible - I have read through the entire Bibke more than once. For me, way too much time was spent on preaching. I got bored. I don't generally get bored during audio books, and I read a lot of different genres. I needed the story to move faster and get to what the main theme is. I found myself getting frustrated with the story not moving forward. I got about 3/4 of the way through before I stopped.

Clunky and boring

Most of the way through the second chapter and totally giving up on this book. The writing seems very clunky and the narrating paced speaking is highly annoying to me.

So so slow

I was excited to read the book initially. But the storyline is so slow so many irrelevant details just couldn’t even finish it. Don’t waste your money.

I wanted to enjoy this, but

as a Christian I could not. This is sci-fi not biblical. The first 7 chpts are boring because the narration is so bad. No where near Peretti's work which is much better.
I gave it a chance but it is a waste.

Terrible

Slow disjointed story and an even worse choppy narration. I could only take so much before it became a no go for me.

Not at all what I expected

I expected a story which was a Christian fiction thriller. This is not!
I haven’t finished it but it hurts to even listen to it. Too much detail that wasn’t story building. So tired of waiting for something to happen.

Not Biblical

Do NOT listen to these unless you are well versed in scripture. As a Christian Christ Holy Spirit dwells within us. There is NO way a demon can powers a Christian. Oppress yes but not possess. Also the name of Jesus is more powerful than any other thing. Even a religious relic.
