Book Review & a Giveaway: American Omens

American Omens

The year 2038 comes to life in the book, American Omens. Shining a spotlight on hot topics like marijuana, police gun control, censorship and the abuse of online privacy, Travis Thrasher weaves a tale of deception and the fight for justice. American Omens is a work of fiction, yet not so far-fetched to imagine how persecution might happen in a short twenty years from now.

If, like me, you’re new to the writings of Travis Thrasher, even so, you might recognize some of his work. In fact, he has over 50 books in print, including Indivisible, God’s Not Dead 2, and Paper Angels. Travis says, “Readers… want characters to root for and mysteries to dissect and journeys to take.” American Omens creates that draw to stay rooted in a mystery that takes twists and turns until the very end!

Travis says, “The premise is the future persecuted Christian faith.” As I processed the backstory, I couldn’t help but wonder if I would also fall into the masses of those who wouldn’t speak out against evil. If I remain passive, I cannot blame anyone else when I lose the freedoms so passionately sought by our forefathers. And, if we’re silent too long, whether we’re afraid to appear intolerant or worried about offending people, one day we will no longer have the opportunity to speak!

I recommend this book, not just as a good read, but as one that will open your eyes to the unseen battle raging around us. Just as revolutionary as C.S. Lewis’, The Screwtape Letters, American Omens has a place in our time to wake us up and enlist us in the fight for faith.

Enter to win! I am giving away not one, but two copies of American Omens to two readers in the continental United States. Leave a comment on my blog (at the top of this post, under the title) and answer this question, “How do you show love, yet call for accountability to your faith?” You will be entered into the drawing to be held on Monday, February 18. For an extra chance to win the drawing, share this post on social media and let me know in the comments.
