![]() ![]() One of the best characters in This Present Darkness was a villain Peretti really got in his head and made him a complex, interesting character with a strong emotional arc. Peretti is never particularly subtle, but he has a gift for character. ![]() A large portion of the book revolves around the efforts of an ACLU-like organization to shut down a Christian school and the valiant efforts of the Christian school teacher to prove that he was totally in the right to try to cast a demon out of a little girl. This book is a lot more political than the previous book. This book is even longer than the first book, by around a hundred pages, and it is, in my opinion, not nearly as good. The main recurring characters here are the angel characters the book mostly follows a new set of characters in a new location in the real world, though some characters from This Present Darkness do eventually appear. Like that book, this has a kind of standard thriller plot going on in the real world and we’re also privy to the conflict of angels and demons behind the scenes. This is the sequel to Peretti’s first real masterpiece, This Present Darkness. ![]()
