Hehe, had to make sure I spelled that right. XP So, for those who don't know and are looking at this, Frank Peretti is a fairly well-known Christian author with quite an impressive body of work. He's doing that whole teen series "The Veritas Project"... which was like, The Hangman's Curse and Nightmare Academy....
Recently I read The Oath, and about two years ago I read Piercing the Darkness (I think that's the one I read... he also has one titled This Present Darkness... and I can't recall which of them I read). I'm a big fan of his writing, I think his way of describing things is fantastic. His work isn't really scary, but it is a little creepy just because it's about things like angels and demons... things I personally actually believe in (unlike... ghosts or zombies... or what have you ^^; ). Mostly I like anything he writes because he writes mysteries and they're always done well enough that you can figure it out if you're really trying, but there's still some surprises at the end. ^_^
I actually thought The Oath was a little bit out there, but eh. I finished it in about 3 hours... which was an interesting feat. XD It sucked me in and wouldn't let go until I finished it... meanie book. >_>
But... yeah. I'd definitely recommend anything by SeƱor Peretti. XD

YAAAAAAAAY! *Glomps Kiri-chan* I can't believe I haven't written about him before. I've read This Present Darkness, Piercing the Darkness (the sequel), the Oath, and one other one that I forget the name of. I can't get enough of his writing. It's so awesome!

*hugs* ^^
Hehe. I went and looked at pictures of the covers of his books (because I remembered the cover vividly, just not the title) and found out I read This Present Darkness. XD Wow, looks like I need to read the sequel!!!
I think I have a library card... maybe I should go use it. XD
