Narrative Supposing Books The Sounding
2016 Book Excellence Awards Suspense Winner!In the Book of Revelation, a man named John has a prophetic dream. He dreams of the final prophecies that will come to pass - and the seven archangels that guard them. Each angel waits to sound their trumpet at God's appointed time, preparing humanity to fight and win the final battle.2,000 years later, Father Chris Mognahan is a member of the Hetairia Melchizedek, a secret society within the Catholic Church that studies Biblical omens. The society asks Chris to investigate an unusually grotesque crime - a murder on a college campus where the killer's hand literally burned off the victim's face. While the killing seems isolated at first, the society ties the murder to the final Biblical prophecy and a terrifying omen that the order of the prophecies is about to be disrupted. The final battle is coming too soon - long before humanity is prepared to win it.Suddenly, Chris finds himself fighting against time and hell to keep the prophecies in order and stop an early Armageddon. He is joined by a band of unlikely allies, and together they find themselves in Rome above the Vatican Necropolis - the city of the dead - where the future is revealed to them in ancient texts.They are not alone, however; an evil as old as time itself hunts them. As they travel across continents on their mission, the demonic force follows relentlessly, waiting in every shadowed corner, and every dark place.As Armageddon descends, Father Chris finds that his only hope lies in a young woman within the group who has a secret gift - and their belief that God Himself may have sent her to keep the final angelic trumpet from sounding out the early end of the Earth.

Where should I start, probably at the beginning? But I need to explain three things to the readers of this review first, I read fast, not a speed reader but I read fast. This book took way longer than normal because I found myself paging back, re reading parts, then paging back again to make sure I understood the premise and to make sure I memorize the facts.Secondly; I am one of those people who love what I refer to as useless facts. I live for them, read for them and have them stored somewhereI've just finished this book and at this point in time, I'm still left in turmoil by it. The Sounding stirred so many emotions in me, I actually wasn't sure I even liked the ending at first.The plot I found to be extremely original, I'm by no means religious, but I deeply enjoyed that aspect, mixing supernatural fiction with hard known facts. The characters are complex and well rounded, but also realistic : the line between good and evil is very very thin...I do admit some part were overly
Without giving away the story or reiterating what other reviewers said in their detailed analysis, I will say you wont be disappointed by this paranormal thriller. Before starting The Sounding, I knew it was a novel about the final prophecy that leads to Armageddon and good versus evil. As one who is not religious, I had some concerns. Those concerns were quickly put to rest as I started the book. The storyline drew me in from the very beginning and kept me on the edge of my seat toward the end.

I love this book. Never wanted it to end. Very exciting ending. Was on the edge of my seat. Would make a great movie if done right.
I was given this book in return for an honest review. There is so much going on in this book that I will be brief. The story is centered aroung the book of Revelations and the apocolypse. It spans from America to the Vatican. Father Chris is a member of the Hetairia Melchicedek, a secret society that studies the impending apocolypse, always looking for signs. Elise is also a member, but has a special secret gift. Father Carter is a mute monk who is also Clairvoyant. Sent to investigate a murder

Excellent debut novel from Carrie Salo, really enjoyed this gripping thriller, it's not the easiest book to read due to the biblical passages but well worth persevering with as the storyline gets you hooked right from the start. Will keep an eye out for future releases from Salo if they are half as good as this they will be worth reading.
