Pacific Book Review
Fire is the kind of book you read with so many questions in your mind because of what you learn about people and the world. This book is not only captivating but also fear-provoking in some parts when the author talks of his personal encounter with people who act like Satanists. Scott is an excellent writer. He knows how to narrate events to the understanding of the reader and how to make the story appealing to every reader.
Fire is a book for those who enjoy adventure and eccentric tales. The book reveals much about humankind and especially non-believers, and those that subscribe to the anti-Christ. The narrator is detailed when sharing his experiences and the lessons he has learned throughout his life. I enjoyed the storytelling by Scott because he makes you have a clear picture of what he is talking about when narrating.
The book is told in the first person. This enables the reader to connect more with the author and even understand the story better. Fire follows the story of an investigator who was tasked with an interesting assignment. Being an investigator, the man has obviously led an interesting life thanks to the many diverse cases he has worked on. This new task is however different, and a little challenging from his previous tasks. Is he up to it? The investigator is asked to look into the disappearance and killing of a young child. This case gets him in dangerous places, revealing how hardhearted human beings are, and introduces him to cults of Satanists and non-believers. The investigator is called to serve God, and the tasks he has to get to be even more challenging. What I admired about the man was his resilience, strong belief and determination to finish his job.
You will enjoy this book not only because of the beautiful narration but also because the story gets to be more intriguing as you flip the pages. Scott wrote a stimulating book. Readers will enjoy the authentic narration as it gives people lessons on how to handle some challenges in life. It also shows not everyone in the world has pure intentions even when they appear friendly.
Fire has hair-raising stories. The stories however become less bloodcurdling when the author talks about the joys of being a believer and trusting God. Scott will enlighten you as a reader on the dangers of this world, without sugar coating. I enjoy him as an author because the language he uses is modest and the message he passes amidst his narration is clear. This book is a great read if you enjoy short investigative pieces, eerie stories, and Christian literature.
