Críticas
This book offers well-polished and likable characters surrounded by a masterful and disturbing atmosphere of paranoid- schizophrenic chill. Alas, the mystery of the opening was better than the revealing of the rest.- * Sebastien Wen, Teen Review * Sam Becker doesn't know what to think when he starts hearing Jonah's voice. It makes as much sense as the nightmares, or the words that appear in his journal. But when he finds himself painting pictures of the four best friends he hasn't seen in seven years, he remembers the beings that chased him, along with Jonah, Carly, TJ and Jenna. He didn't know that the beings had come back for all of them, or that the five of them are Watchers, capable of seeing both the MazziKim (fallen angels) and the Irinim (God's warring angels). The five must fight together in order to save each other, as they realize that they have won the battle, but not the war. This apocalyptic novel is written in short chapters, giving readers the points of view of all five characters as they struggle to understand what is going on now, and to remember what happened to them seven years ago. The large cast will provide sympathetic characters that readers will like; these include the nineteen-year-old single mother Jenna, whose appealing five-year-old son, Mikey, is the next generation of Watcher, and a former gang member trying to redeem himself. Readers who enjoy complicated plots and casts of characters will look forward to the next book in this series. * Betsy Fraser, VOYA August 2010 * This book offers well-polished and likable characters surrounded by a masterful and disturbing atmosphere of paranoid-schizophrenic chill.

Readers who enjoy complicated plots and casts of characters will look forward to the next book in this series.---Betsy Fraser, VOYA August 2010 * Betsy Fraser, VOYA * 'An apocolyptic series with an evangelical subtext kicks off with this high octane thrill ride. Five pre-teens were best friends once, sharing a mystical bond transcending race and class. But that was seven years ago, before something horrible happened, something that they can't remember, that tore them apart, that sent them drifting into drugs, crime and despair; something that is now stalking their nightmares, drawing them back together to become embroiled in an ancient battle between the angels of light and darkness. The plot is cleverly constructed with short chapters dissolving present and past, creating a phantasmagoric effect that constantly ratchets up the adrenaline level. While the heroes are sympathetic and fundamentally decent, they are presented with a graphic realism uncommon in Christian fiction and seem far older than their supposed years. The large cast, many supporting sound-alike or exotic names, can be confusing, and it's not quite clear exactly what happens at the climax beyond a busload of setup for future books. Still, the combination of vivid cinematic detail, gritty adolescent angst and spectacular supernatural should prove irresistible.' - * Kirkus Reviews May 1, 2010 * "This classic good vs. evil spellbinding novel grips readers throughout as the audience and the Watchers learn of the heaven-hell war on earth ... a delightful good, bad and ugly apocalyptic chronicle." * Harriet Klausner, Online Book Reviewer * Dawn Miller has stepped up the game for teen dramas and carved a unique niche in the world of supernatural thrillers. Her clever and unique machination between good and evil leads the reader on an exciting journey through darkness, guided by the power of faith and hope. As a film critic who has watched thousands of movies made from books, I cannot wait to see this one! Simply put...Dawn Miller is a brilliant writer for adults as well as teens. * Holly McClure, LA film critic *
Reseña del editor
Remember these words well. It's only a thin veil that separates them from our world. As time grows near, they will return to make their war upon mankind. They will torment, attack, and cause destruction on this planet. They will never hunger; they will never sleep. They will walk amongst us unseen. Invisible to all but those born to see. And each generation of five that sees shall endure more than the last. But the final generation of Watchers will not only endure, not only watch... ...THEY WILL FIGHT.
