The Seraph Seal by Leonard Sweet and Lori Wagner

The Seraph Seal is a fictional account of what the "end times" might look like. It reminds me of a Christian take on the Davinci code. There is the humble professor caught up with an unsuspecting small group of people in a good vs. evil battle for the end of the world. While the book had some very interesting guesses as to how some of the Biblical symbolism might play out in modern times, that is where a lot of the intrigue and interest ended for me. It started on a high note, drawing you into an intriguing set of circumstance but after a few more pages there are so many different characters from different parts of the world, representing different things, involved in the story it is difficult to keep them all straight. If you stick with it by the middle to final third of the book you have a grasp on who everyone is and the book does pick up to a pace close to that of a "page turner," but that is a long time for me to stick with a somewhat confusing book. If you like this genre of literature then it might be a good read for you, as I mentioned their ideas of what the apocalypse might look like are extremely interesting. But if that's not you're thing and you're just looking for some fast paced fiction another book might be better for you.
