Title: Re:what do u think about Frank Perreti? Post by: Timi on October 28, 2003, 05:55:09 AM It's the sequel to 'This Present Darkness'. i haven't read it though. i did just get a copy of another of his books, 'The Oath' ;D. i'll keep you posted.

Title: Re:what do u think about Frank Perreti? Post by: a.b. on November 07, 2003, 11:50:48 PM I love Peretti. "Visitation" is a wild ride and makes you think about how careful you have to be when you're trying to influence your kids for Christ. "Piercing the Darkness" and "This Present Darkness" are superb. "The Oath" is great; I
loved the allegory of how sin affects your life without Christ. It was a little slow but I still enjoyed it. "The Prophet" is great!! Peretti weaves the truth all through this one and it moves faster than most of his work. "The Hangman's Curse" is great for teens to adults. I read this whole book to my mom and she loved it. Any one read "The Wounded Spirit"? That's his first non-fiction. A.B. PS. If you like Frank Peretti, I think you'll like Bill Meyers and Ted Dekker too. Title: Re:what do u think about Frank Perreti?

To tell ya the truth, his books sounded interesting at first. But then everyone thought they were so good, so I kinda avoided them... ;D Normally what the crowd likes really stinks. :P But I guess I'm going to have to read one; my interest has been aroused. If they aren't good, I'm going to come after you guys and beat you with a hardback copy. (For those of you with sensitive souls, I am joking, ya know. ;)) Title: Re:what do u think about Frank Perreti? Post by: Willowbirch on February 18, 2004, 08:00:48 PM I love Peretti.

Ooo, one of my favorites so far...Title: Re:what do u think about Frank Perreti? Post by: JudgeNot on February 18, 2004, 10:07:57 PM I've read all of Perreti's adult novels (I'm thinking about reading his 'for kids' stuff).
He is extremely entertaining. If you see a Perreti novel you haven't read: Buy it and read it! :) Title: Re:what do u think about Frank Perreti? Post by: Broken on February 19, 2004, 09:05:19 PM He's ok. I've read a couple of his books.
Not...wonderful, but ok. |
