Invisible Enemies by Lynda D. Brown is, in a way, a good depiction of the battle between
good and evil. This book started with an attention grabber and I liked how the
author utilized the concept of spirits, both good and evil.
Abby Harris is a child of God and
everyone knew it from the day she was born. They also knew that God had great
plans for her and He had great intentions for her in his kingdom. She was
beautiful, donned a beautiful voice and she loved everyone—and everyone loved her, except members of her family.
Abby’s siblings were jealous of her because
everyone thought she was so perfect—including her own mother. When fallen
angel, Satan, challenges God for Abby’s soul, they find out who really has the
ultimate power. The devil pulls no punches in trying to infiltrate the Harris
family by placing people and spirit guides in the family’s midst. Early in the story, good and evil go toe to
toe.
I was initially filled with excitement
with this book once it started. I commend the author for her creativity in
writing about spiritual warfare and showing the “realism” that many of us
refuse to address. It is funny how some Christians will read the bible and look
at the world today and ask questions such as “How can God allow these things to
happen?” when the truth is, he’s prophesied it in His word and with no holds
barred. We tend to look at the bible through rose-colored glasses. The author
gives realistic depictions of the demons we struggle with on a day-to-day
basis.
Literary Wonders! usually does not
speak about editing issues in a review, unless
those issues interfere with the flow and the readability of the story. Unfortunately,
it would appear that this book was not edited as there were many typos,
incorrect verb and noun agreements and other grammatical errors. In addition,
there were many “time” inconsistencies, i.e., “this happened twelve years later”
and a few paragraphs later “this happened a couple of years ago.” There was
also a lot of receptiveness in this book.
Over all, I enjoyed the book, and I
feel it could have been and still can become a five-star title with a good
editor to fix grammatical, spelling, inconsistencies and storyline development.
Even so, I was able to understand that the premise of the book is, that good
will always outdo evil, however, we have a choice. If we choose to leave the
covering of God, we have chosen to face the consequences of doing so.
