ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Greg Mitchell likes monsters. So much, in fact, he has written this trilogy about a small town learning to take a stand on faith and challenge the dark forces creeping in. Greg is a Christian who believes that the Bible is 100 percent true, and he does his best to live his life according to its principles and write things that help teach others about Jesus Christ. Back in 2001, he co-wrote the novel Time Changer, published by White Harvest Books, with his friend and Christian filmmaker, Rich Christiano. In 2002, Time Changer was made into a theatrically released motion picture, and it is now available on DVD. Greg lives with his wife and daughter in Paragould, Arkansas.

SHORT BOOK DESCRIPTION:
Dras Weldon is a twenty-two-year-old unemployed washout. He lives in a world populated by horror movies and comic books, content to hide in the shadow of adolescence. Under the scrutinizing eye of his older brother, Jeff, a pastor, Dras lives a life of professed Christianity with very little observable spirituality. He must change. However, when a demon known only as “the Strange Man” comes to his small town of Greensboro and threatens Dras’s best friend, Rosalyn Myers, Dras discovers that only by putting his faith into action can he save his friend from danger. Suddenly he is thrust into a race against the clock and forced to battle demonic forces in an effort to convince Rosalyn to accept Christ and turn away from the coming evil.

**Ok that trailer was a little bit freaky.......I just received my copy and cant wait to get started on this scary, monster filled story. Review to come soon.
Wow, that trailer is really, really creepy! I actually had to stop watching as soon as that long-nailed hand came into the picture, I'm a huge wuss:) I don't think this book is for me (see aforementioned wuss statement), but it sounds very interesting and disturbing and I can't wait for your review Tina!
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this one.
ReplyDeleteHey Jenn, I am a total wuss too ;)
Wow. Good trailer. I was fine until the creepy dude was in her room while she's sleeping. Eeek!
ReplyDeleteI am very happy with the story of Daniel, who is very submissive by nature and suffered horrific abuse, and Tony, a very strong and loving.
