Rating: Summary: 2nd of 3 great books! Review: Threshold is the second of a series of three wonderful books with an entirely original treatment of the end days. Myers just may be better than Milton in justifying God's ways to man! Real people with real weaknesses are portrayed realistically in their trials to overcome evil with good. The characterization was as good as the plot, which is a rare find. The overall message was extremely thought-provoking and ultimately uplifting spiritually. I strongly recommend all three books: Blood of Heaven, Threshold, and Fire of Heaven.
Rating: Summary: Just flat out bad Review: While the plot for THRESHOLD is mildly intriguing, it seems the author can't pull it off without over-explaining things. A character will be explaining something, and then we are treated to a "in other words...here's what I'm saying" followup statement. How annoying. It's like Myers can't keep himself from nudging the reader and saying, "You get it, right?" Another odd thing about this book is the number of women who are young, blonde, gorgeous, lissome, curvaceous, well-built,etc. Every young lady is a hot babe and the author wants everyone to know it. Why is this necessary? Where is the author's mind? It's depressing to see mostly positive reviews here. Skip THRESHOLD.
