CLOAK OF THE LIGHT

CLOAK OF THE LIGHT by Chuck Black

This book really surprised me. If you are looking for a good spiritual warfare novel for your teens, this book is it!

Cloak of the Light is the first in the Wars of the Realm series by Chuck Black.

 Drew Carter has experienced loss in his life. Heavy duty loss. Then his best friend asks for his help on a college science experiment, and it explodes leaving him blinded. Drew begins to try to adapt to a new way of life, but he has no idea how different his life is going to become. Miraculously, his eyesight is restored over time, but with it comes some added abilities including the ability to see in another dimension. What Drew thinks he is seeing are aliens, but they are really demons and angels and the effect of spiritual warfare going on around him. As an unsaved young man who has often blown off the idea of God and Christ, his life is in great danger.

This book is brilliantly written and is a great reminder of the warning that Ephesians 6:12-13 gives us. We are not battling against the flesh with what we encounter in this world, but against principalities. Putting on our armor needs to be a daily occurrence!

As a former F-16 pilot and tactical communications engineer, Chuck Black knows his military "stuff!" The jargon and battle scene descriptions are very descriptive, but not bloody or gory. Highly recommend!
