Book Description

Release Date: Aug 7 2000

The two #1-selling novels that have captivated millions are now available together in one volume.

This Present Darkness takes place in the typical small town of Ashton where nothing much ever seems to happen. Until... a skeptical reporter and a prayerful pastor begin to compare notes. They suddenly find themselves fighting a hideous New Age plot to subjugate the townspeople, and eventually the entire human race.

The battle against evil continues in Piercing the Darkness, where a young loner fleeing for her life while trying to recall her dark past takes refuge in the tiny farming community of Bacons Corner. There she finds herself caught up in the middle of bizarre events—from an attempted murder to a ruthless lawsuit against a struggling Christian school.

Across a vast panorama of heart-stopping action, these stories are a penetrating portrayal of our world, a reflection of its spiritual wanderings, and a vivid reminder of the redemptive power of the Cross.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spectacular Jan 3 2005
By A Customer
Format:Hardcover
A Frank Peretti book is hard to put down once you pick it up. I find myself often deciding to 'read one more chapter'. He knows how to draw people into his stories and, in the 'Darkness' series, he does a wonderful job of presenting the battles between good and evil. He is a marvelous author. I wait patiently, though eagerly, for the writing of his next book.

5.0 out of 5 stars You can't put this down Sep 17 2003
By Wolfe Moffat
Format:Hardcover
I enjoyed both books. With the 2 being in one, sometimes the arms get quite a workout, if you read it for too long! Frank Peretti is right up there with Ted Dekker. I've heard Frank speak, and he is one of a kind. If you are looking for an author who writes about spiritual warfare, just head for Peretti, because he is the best in the business! He will make you think about eternity in a whole new perspective. Frank isn't a new author, and he won't go away. He will be known as an inspiration for generations.

Join Tal and Guilo and other angels as they take on demons and the powers of darkness in the fight for souls! Frank Peretti digs deep into the soul. He also shows a very human side of life, teaching you and making it quite interesting and at times humorous. He has to be one of the biggest experts on spiritual warfare. As I said above, if you don't believe that, listen to him. The man does his homework. Now, if this isn't telling you what you need to know, you need to get one of his books. If he doesn't suit you, there's always Dr. Suess!

He's one of the best, and he will always be one of the best. What's more, he has our Heavenly Father on his side. An annointed man with awesome stuff. All for the glory of God! Can't ask for too much more. Check it out!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Christian Breakthrough April 27 2003
By mtk5150
Format:Hardcover
I realize it's fiction. But I think Peretti, through his writing, is giving us a great deal of insight into the spirit world. His angels. His demons. His humans!

It's important to me that there's more to gain here than just a good read. If entertainment is all there is to it, there are thousands of well writen secular novels already. But Peretti's novel is edifying and affirming to me as a Christian, a Christian that believes there's more out there than just the sweet by-and-by.

The Bible itself shows us that angels are among us. And Peretti shows us how and what they're doing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Joins a growing number of quality endtime books.
Endtime novels that focus on Christian themes have been, on the whole, very dissapointing. Poor writing, feeble character construction, and an absence of intellegence. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!
These two books are amazing. I will never look at prayer in the same way! I would suggest these books to anyone. The stories are gripping and it is hard to put these books down.
