ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

Today I live in California, not too far from Hollyweird (where I'm still trying to make a difference) with two cats, two kids, one dog and one wife.
Another Faithword book by Bill Myers is The Voice.
ABOUT THE BOOK

The battle culminates with the capture of Lisa's father as the next target and a Black Mass requiring both their deaths as a sacrifice. The team will, once again, have to rely on all their wits, strength, and faith to survive in this action-packed, unearthly warfare.

MY REVIEW:
Angel of Wrath is a book that was preceded by The Voice, and I’m left with the distinct impression it would have provided some needed background for me prior to reading Angel. Regardless of this fact, I was able to understand the story, and overall it was quite an adventure!
I’d place this story in the realm of a supernatural thriller. The entire pace of the story is very intense – the action non-stop! I think this story expresses Myer’s fictional creation of the spiritual battle that is raging around the world today. Despite the fact that he chooses a whiny, smart-mouth young adult as one of his chosen conduits of spiritual warfare, Myers accurately portrays how guilt, fear and hopelessness rob believers of their victory over sin in their lives. Once God’s children realize that Christ’s death on the cross and His resurrection covers all of our sin, then and only then can we gain an effective place within the battle that is raging. God’s Word is powerful, our prayers are effective, and the power of heaven surrounds us every moment.
Angel of Wrath is a dark and frightening story as a whole. I’m not sure I put much credence into the mechanics of the spiritual warfare as it is portrayed in the story, but rather feel it represents the fact that as Christians we need to face each day suited for battle. I didn’t particularly care for the Epilogue, but the story itself was one I didn’t want to put down. I felt like I was left to ponder the condition of my own spiritual armor, and whether or not I’m an effective warrior for the name of Christ. Angel of Wrath is not a tale for the faint of heart or the easily frightened, and it shouldn’t be read at bed time. Believe me, I know. Check it out!

I agree that it shouldn't be read at bedtime. It had my heart pumping.
