This novel really tripped me out. Back in the 1970's and 1980's, when I was growing up Pentecostal, I got a heavy dose of all this Rapture/Pre- Millenialism/Post-Millenialism hoo-hah. I've gotta say, Sarah Lotz nails that just right, is spot on: This is a very authentic view. One small negative: Her Texas and American characters all sound just a tad too British (I notice the author lives in South Africa), maybe a spot more research on American dialects/how Americans sound. In an interesting twist, a hard line fundamentalist Christian wins the White House, taking America down the road to becoming a theocracy, and the ending feels a bit...open. A good effort.
