This is the fourth worst book I have read at this point in my literate life.
The author, in the first four chapters, manages to make a mockery of herself in every way available to an unusually nutty, child-beating fundie. She expresses--and, via a terrorism-wracked world more befitting of a conservative survivalist's fantasy than a modern-day description of the world--attempts to justify the most paranoid Islamophobia I have ever seen in a fictional work; praises herbal medicine to a h...more

I did not like this book. In all honesty, I did not even get to the half-way point before I stopped reading. Maybe it's just not my kind of book - but it's too 'out there' for me. I don't enjoy graphic violence and evil in my reading material. I don't like swear words that are there just other symbols used for letters (come on, like I don't know what the words is??). If you are into fantastical conspiracy theories, then you might enjoy this. Not me.
Started a bit rough (author's first novel), but definitely got a lot better the farther it went. The scary part is, it's a contemporary story about the near future describing a very possible state of affairs here in America. Because of my familiarity with the author's non-fiction work, I am confident that much research went into this fictional story, and it gives much food for thought and prayer. It is the first of a series, so I really am looking forward to the rest. Debi Pearl is a great story...more

I really looked forward to reading this book, Debi Pearl's first novel, and was not disappointed. The story begins a little slowly while characters and the basic storyline are under development. Then it takes off, intertwining an engaging story with information on herbs and Biblical teaching. I am familiar with this author's non-fiction work and am thereby confident in the knowledge and research that went into the book. The ending took me by surprise. I look forward to the sequel.
It was a decent first shot at a novel, but some things were over-developed while others (that needed to be more so) were under-developed. I look forward to the sequel.
