Book Reviews of The Visitation
Book Review: "Needful Things", Christian-style
Summary: 3 Stars
I was really looking forward to this book; I read a couple of chapters on a Christian bookstore site and couldn't wait to get my hands on it.But I admit to being disappointed -- not so much with the journey back to faith on the part of the narrator (the only thing about the book that kept me reading it) -- but with the plot, which felt like a Christianized version of the Stephen King book "Needful Things", wherein a demonically-driven (or flat out demonic) entity comes into town and gives people what they think they want, only to have that thing turn out to be a curse. (Sound familiar?)
I'm more likely to go back to "Piercing the Darkness" and "This Present Darkness" or "Prophet" than "The Visitation".
