About this listen

Needful Things meets a Pentecostal revival in this Christian suspense novel about a mysterious stranger coming to a sleepy Northwestern town claiming to be a prophet.

Travis Jordan, a widower and burned-out pastor, hoped to disappear into the quiet, unassuming town of Antioch, Washington. Then a man claiming to be the new Christ arrives, performing miracle after miracle, and the national spotlight soon follows.

As the town escalates in its religious fervor, Travis must battle with his own questions about his faith and the increasing extremism and zealotry overtaking the town. The startling secret behind this visitation will ultimately push him into a supernatural confrontation that has eternal consequences.

Overall it was a good book with a good story line. It was a bit strange because it was written in first person, but once you go used to that it was ok. It lagged at times, but overall I enjoyed it.

Very good

I got this book because it was on sale and it looked supernatural. Did not expect 50 billion mentions of Jesus. Good lord. If you can supplement bad writing, and bad fiction with mentions of Jesus, God, and the church to get published, then I would advise all young writers to do so.
I hope audible adds a Christian tag to this, just so people like me can avoid these types of books because this was an annoying listen. I never speed up the read speed. But I did for this one 2x.
The antagonist's sudden change to a bad guy was badly done, even divine intervention could not make that transition good.
And let us talk about the protagonist. Are there really people who do what the protagonist did in his early years? Are people that stupid?

So to end this. If you are Christian, this review is not for you, and you will probably love this book.

If you aren't this is one of the most badly written messes I've ever read, and I would suggest you stay away from this like it has the plague. Basic, Bad, and too preachy when it comes to any mention of religion. I would use pedantic to describe it as well, useless meandering into any mention of religion.
