About the Book


Book: The Glittering Web

What if everything you thought was true and good – wasn’t?

Stripping away years of deception doesn’t come easily—especially to Loren and Eve Montcrest. They believe they’re following the true path as initiates in Seattle’s Arcane Institute, their society’s elite training academy for the New World Order in 2050.

Pursuing spiritual power despite enormous dangers, they are caught up in a fiery, fast-paced succession of intrigues and adventure that rocks their love for each other and even their sanity.

Only a shocking, last-minute intervention can strip away the veil of deception and rescue them from destruction—but will they give up everything for it?

My Review

The Glittering Web is really an eye opening look into a dangerous spiritual movement that is not of God. The way the hero and heroine are really sucked into this movement as life-consuming I think was really realistic. I think the process of them conforming their future,  their relationship and everything to the culture of this movement really shows the way evil can just control someone and cause a lot of deception thinking you are doing what's right. I felt like the pace really kept you going and the way the atmosphere and other characters/leaders in the movement from appearance, to names, to action really set the scene clearly in my mind. I have to say I was a little thrown off from the cover, but I found the book to not be overly preachy or judgmental. I felt like the journey from questioning to faith was really worth reading to see unfold, and the way God lifts that veil was inspiring. I felt the characters were also well developed. Overall, if you're looking for an inspirational faith journey, or Christian fiction with a sci-fi/futuristic vibe, this one is for you.


I received a complimentary copy of this book, and all opinions given are entirely my own.

More from Richard and Linda

What if everything you thought was true and good—wasn’t?

 That’s what we painfully learned from our years in the New Age / psychedelic movement in the San Francisco Bay Area during the ’60s and ’70s–years in which we almost lost our sanity, our souls, and our lives. Like our characters Loren and Eve who are initiates in Seattle’s Arcane Institute in the year 2050, we pursued spiritual power into a glittering web of dangers and deceptions. Although true to our own inner trials and temptations, The Glittering Web is a fast-paced thriller and sci-fi fantasy with a life of its own, an evangelistic thrust, and a call to Christians to wake up to this huge mission field all around us where today a New Age practitioner is running for President. As it exposes the deceitfulness of this popular movement, it also glorifies the great love and power of Jesus Christ to reach the lost.
