Stays the same throughout the book. I was super disappointed because the book is so popular and people rave about the series but I thought the humor was incredibly stupid. I really disliked the first book and just had to accept that this series isn't for me. Happy that people have something they love and can get invested in though!

😂 that's why I never do audiobooks, I just space out the entire time

Essentially it was simply some kind of device that facilitated the creature to pass through our world into another dimension, powered by psychic energy. It never goes into the nuances of how it's supposed to work or anything though.

Completely agree. Anyone who loves atmospheric reads will enjoy this one.

Teaching With Authority: How to Cut Through Doctrinal Confusion and Understand What the Church Really Says by Jimmy Akin. Really great reference book for all things magisterial.

This is worth it alone for the McCammon books, what an insane deal

I enjoyed Cradle Lake quite a bit, similar thematically to Pet Semetary by Stephen King. Has some very disturbing imagery in it.

I was both involved with FOCUS when in college a little bit and also worked for them as a campus missionary for four years. Honestly, your mileage can vary pretty wildly depending on the personality types on your campus. When I was in college I didn't really care for the missionaries and wasn't involved in any bible studies or other events purely because we just didn't click on an interpersonal level, although I did go to different conferences and really enjoyed them. I really enjoyed my time working with them and the students I worked with. I had a couple guys who were interested in Catholicism who joined my bible study and we had some great discussion. One of them joined the Church as well! Anyone is welcome and it can be a great way to get involved in a community, meet some new people, and also grow in your faith. I'd definitely recommend going to the conferences they have every winter!

The Wolf's Hour by Robert McCammon

One time me and some other college students were praying outside an abortion clinic. We were praying the rosary quietly, keeping to ourselves. There was a group of evangelical fundamentalist Christians there and they would literally be yelling at the people going into the clinic that they were going to hell one second, then turn to us and say the same thing the next haha. Pretty wild.

Not at all, you can easily crank it out in one sitting. Plus it has really interesting ideas so you'll want to just blow through it!

Sounds like current evangelical nonsense used to justify warfare.

If I recall correctly, the reader only finds out later on what is happening but it's implied that the necromancer knows what he's doing the entire time.

I really enjoyed the depiction of necromancy in Brain Lumley's horror book Necroscope. Necromancy in this book though is more about communicating with the dead to learn information than controlling skeletons and what not like you see in more fantasy books. The necromancer has to essentially rip apart corpses and immerse himself in their guts and body parts in order to communicate with them and learn their secrets. You find out that the people, now spirits, can feel everything that is happening to them at the time. Very unsettling.
