Excellent horror tale,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Revelation (Paperback)
God has banished Satan from his presence forever. In his anger at this humiliation, Satan has vowed to destroy God's handiwork: mankind. Over the eons, many battles have been fought, but the forces of God have won every time. Randal, Arizona is a quiet town that soon will be the locale of the latest skirmish in the eternal war between good and evil. The preliminary thrusts begin when an Episcopalian minister and his family vanish while a child dreams of what happened to them. The lad leads the sheriff to the spot where their bodies are found. When the child has another dream, he immediately calls the sheriff. However, before he can relate his latest vision, his house explodes, killing all the occupants. An evangelical preacher arrives in town to explain what must be done to stop evil from winning for the first time. Using his experience gained over too many fights during the millennium, he rallies his chosen to risk their lives in defeating Satan's soldiers. THE REVELATION pulsates with a palatable force that leaves readers feeling they journeyed into a world of terror rarely felt in a novel. Reminiscent of THE STAND, fans of King, Koontz and Straub will fully appreciate this work. Though not yet recognized by the genre as attaining the summit of the K2 (King and Koontz), Bentley Little not only holds his own, but perhaps tops the elite. Harriet Klausner

Not bad...,
By The Owler (East Sussex, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Revelation (Paperback)
Satan wants to walk the earth, and he is coming via Randall, Arizona. However, one man, the enigmatic Father o'Brien is aware of his intentions, and plans to stop him with the help of a hand selected trio of Randall residents.
The book is well written, with the tension building up nicely as the reader works his way to the inevitable showdown between the big guns. There is plenty of 'side-action', with residents encountering the preliminary build-up to Satans entrance. There is not much in the way of superfluous detail to cloud issues and the characters are well enough defined. However, the plot and the finale do not hold much in the way of surprises.

Not his best,
By Smokey (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Revelation (Paperback)
I have read a few Bentley Little books and I would say this is the one I liked the least. I enjoy his writing style so I finished it but I wouldn't recomend it to anyone. If your looking for a Bentley Little book to read I recomend the Resort. It is by far the best one of his books I have read.
