So, I've been reading these two books for an extremely long time. I just finished the last one tonight, after reading them both for like a year. Let me just say, Frank Peretti did a phenomenal job. Both of these books were based on a spiritual warfare conspiracy that tries to take over two towns, one town in the first book, and a different town in the second. It gives you all the details of the angels fighting the demons, and how prayer gives power and strength to angels. This is fiction, of course, but it is very realistic. These situations really could happen.
Before I read this book, I hadn't really thought much about how powerful prayer really is. There were points in the story where the angels couldn't really do much about a situation because their prayer cover wasn't strong enough. They depended on the saints to come to the Lord in prayer for their strength.
Also, this book has made me think probably more than any other book I've ever read. I mean it's waaaaaay up there on that list of books that you should NOT read before you go to bed because it hurts your brain too much...But, I really, really enjoyed it. And learned a lot.
I strongly recommend this book. :).
