SuitabookThe mark of the beast
Jerry B. Jenkins
- Reading
- Because the story connects its action to Christian end-times ideas, pause to ask which beliefs characters hold and how those beliefs shape their choices. You need not assume every reader shares them.
- Themes
- Interlocking strands of danger and choice: The group tries to evade the Global Community, assess an uncertain contact and reach people with its message about the mark. The linked action and choices about trust and communication give the plot both suspense and a focus on how the group responds to danger.
- Worth knowing
- The plot includes pursuit, threatened capture and efforts to free friends, alongside suspense about whether a meeting is a trick. Consider whether this sort of peril and uncertainty suits your reader.
