Since Cassandra Graystone was a child and her family perished in a fire she knows and sees things other people don't - when someone will die or that a demon lurks beneath a human skin. She sees phantoms. Yet she craves a simple life singing out with her musician brother, Johnny, and caring for her elderly aunt and uncle; to be with her friends, Sarah, a psychic, and Walter, a clown in a carnival circuit. But when Sarah sees apocalyptic events in her tarot cards and demons are everywhere, Cassandra fears she's going insane or something terrifying is happening in the world.

Rayner, an ancient blood demon, lodges next door. He becomes obsessed with her. Never having felt pity or affection for a human before he believes he loves her, would die to protect her. “The demon realm gathers for the final confrontation between us,” Rayner warns. “The apocalypse comes. You and your friends must prepare.”

Cassandra flees that knowledge until an angelic being, Manasseh, appears. “Your powers will grow. You must fight for humanity's survival after the first wave is taken. Seek out others like you. Persuade them to join the battle. Only these can see and challenge the demons until the end when all eyes see them.” She doesn't want her life to change; doesn't want to be a nomad who battles demons. Doesn't want to be anyone's protector. Until a tornado flattens Sarah's house. Johnny's apartment. There are monsters maiming and killing everywhere. Demons persecute her and those she loves burn down her home and force her family and friends onto the road, as everywhere cataclysmic weather and signs of the end days make things hellish for humans. Cassandra and her friends can no longer deny their destinies.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Coming Apocalypse
    Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    A Time of Demons is a novel of a group of characters finding themselves wrapped up in the lead in to the biblical apocalypse. It is unlike any other biblical apocalypse story I've read or watched over the years however, from A Thief in the Night to more recent ones however. These others seem to all more or less carry the same interpretation of events. This book "branched out" a with somewhat more imagination. The book really does feel like an epic journey, and when I finished, and was thinking back to the start of it, it felt like so much had happened. The story was immersive, and well written.

    The book is, I think, nominally written from a Christian perspective. I personally found some of Cassandra's early behaviour unwarranted and wrong for someone who was a moral devout person though. For example, unnecessarily lying to her uncle. I also felt, from a story perspective, that Cassandra had one ability early in the novel that was unnecessary to the story itself, and seemed to disappear later in the novel - the ability to see that a person was going to die. She had had it (I think from what was said in the book) for a few weeks prior to the novel, and seemed to have totally given up after that short period to even try helping the people she saw as marked for death. I found that just didn't jive with the expected behavior of a her character. The ability seemed to have disappeared later on, and honestly, if it was me I'd feel that the story would have been better without it at all, and that it would not have detracted from the tale.

    The character of Rayner was also a breath of fresh air. I do kind of get tired of fantasies (and even sci fi) of any sort where the various groups are just stereotypes, or one dimensional archetypes representing a single human vice, whether it is werewolves, vampires, demons, or even say a Star Trek species, like a Ferengi representing "greed". I'm more of the opinion that for starters you can't treat an individual as a group, and that a sentient creature is capable of thought, and making decisions. Writers do tend to forget that when they write of demons as the biblical fallen angels that the very fact that the fell was because they made a decision to buck the system. So why are they then forever after somehow capable of making another decision, or regretting that earlier decision, or changing? Anyhow, Rayner embodied this depth, and his character's journey through the book was a great substory, and his internal conflict was well written and thoughtful.

    For fans (like me) of shows like Supernatural, I this book probably would be enjoyed.

    Kathryn Meyer Griffith did a fantastic job narrating. This was my first audiobook of hers, and I'd definitely recommend her narration to anyone. I did find some of the pronunciations a bit odd, but maybe that is just how it is pronounced in other regions or I'm wrong (eg Obadiah as O-ba-dear as opposed to how I thought it pronounced as O-ba-die-ah).

    I really hope a sequel to this book is written.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Frightening and Intense!

    Very frightening! I listened to this first on audible and liked it so much I bought the book.

    The author does a very good job of covering the Rapture. A very challenging topic, but she did an excellent job! I think this is actually the first time I've seen any author successfully tackle it.

    I found myself really liking the vampire character. I became very fond of all the characters, as well.

    Very enjoyable book. No slow spots, it just keeps moving.

    Oh, and I wanted to add, this book made me cry a few times. The book really pulled me in.

    I love the writing done in this book. I think it would make a good movie. There are not enough of this kind out there. The writer takes you on a trip and you can't wait to turn the page to find out what will happen next.

    3.0 out of 5 stars It lacks something....
    Reviewed in the United States on May 22, 2015
    In St. Louis, MO, the Graystones are musicians playing at a local bar and taking care of their elderly aunt and uncle. Cassandra and Johnny lost their parents and siblings in a fire when they were kids and ever since then, Cassandra has been plagued with a few supernatural powers: she can sense when someone is about to die, and (more recently) she can see demons (often disguised as humans). But now things are getting scary with more and more demons about and freak storms and accidents that force the Graystones and their friends on the road.

    This book starts off pretty slow and stays that way for much of the story. On one hand, we get to know the main characters, especially Cassandra, pretty well. On the other hand, the long spaces between the bits of action were a bit tiring to get through as the characters are simply rehashing events and feelings we have already heard about. I place this book firmly in Christian Fiction first and paranormal fantasy fiction second. The only non-Christians in this book are the demons. While I understand this is a fiction based on the idea of Revelation, I was surprised that none of our non-demon characters were of a different religion, nor did any of our characters discuss any friends or family that were of another religious persuasion. I found this odd since our characters are musicians, fortune tellers, and circus clowns, all professions that at least rub elbows with a variety of folks. Plus St. Louis is a fairly large city with plenty happening.

    Since there was lack of variety in religious backgrounds, all of our good guys were on the same page. This meant that the only conflict was between our heroes and the demons and that was pretty straight forward. This lack of differences meant no real conflict among our characters and this added to the dullness of the book; they were all on the same page. This also means that the character growth is limited to their religious take on the events they live through. The most interesting character was the blood demon Rayner and he is interesting because he has both internal conflict and conflict with his fellow demons as well as the humans going on. Unfortunately, his page time with readers is limited.

    In short, if you enjoy Revelation or Christian fiction stories, then this might be right up your alley. There is some character development for our heroes and they do have to go through one travesty after another as the world approaches Revelation. However, for me, this book didn’t work. I like more diversity, which leads to situations where the characters face not only conflict with the forces of evil, but internal conflict and conflict with their friends and allies.

    The Narration: Wendy King did a great job narrating this book. It is a quality performance with plenty of individual, distinct voices for the characters. She also has some great creepy voices for the demons.
