I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I did not read it to find out more about the "Illuminati" but to read a fiction thriller.
What I came away with is a scenario of what could happen to freedom when we allow the media, government, social and political groups to shape our morals and our convictions.
It is always said, "History repeats itself." and this book shows situations that could happen with society's moral decay so personally I found most of it believable.
There were quite a few characters to keep up with but I didn't feel that it detracted from the story.
It also is an example of a good fiction book can be written without curse words and sex scenes. (If you're anti-Christian, you'll probably hate it!!)

Enjoyed the book. Part of the time I felt like the story was taken from the newspapers of 2009, even tho Larry Burkett wrote it in 1991. Good story made one think if there is more truth to the book than fiction. The story is about a group of people using their supernatural powers to take over the world's economic system. Christians try to band together to prevent to takeover but are rounded up and put into camps. Read the book to find out how the evil takeover is stoped.

This was a good read. Moves fast. Lots of action. Really makes you think about political events in a new way.

What an exciting thriller! The weird thing about this book is that I read it when it first came out and I loved it then. However, because I loved it so much, I passed it around for others to enjoy, and it never came home. I didn't think about it much over the years, but after seeing the title again, was drawn to obtain it and read it once again. It was just as thrilling as it was the first time. It was also an encouragement as we go through the struggles of everyday life as Christians, to see how bad it not only COULD be, but one day WILL be! ...but you don't have to be here. :)
