Summary: Good book for Teens to Read!
Comment: I am an avid fan of Randy Alcorn and his books. I enjoy the way he makes the reader aware of the eternal consequences of each and every action taken here on earth. I found the Ishbane Conspiracy to be a cross between Lord Foulgrin's Letters and an interesting story of a group of teenagers gaining their "rites of passage" into adulthood. The Isbane Conspiracy is, in part, a continuation of Alcorn's previous novel, Lord Foulgrin's Letters, and the members of the same Fletcher family are the predominate characters of this book as well. The story centers around four young friends, two girls and two boys. Three of the friends are graduating from High School and one boy is already in his first year of college. The four friends must come to terms with the influences of dating, drugs, alcohol, sex and the occult as they make daily choices between the fulfillment that these things provide versus the fullfillment from Christ and doing things God's way.
Although I enjoyed the story very much, I started getting very irritated by the interruptions in the story when the two demons, Lord Foulgrin and Prince Ishbane, would speak. Each time the story got interesting, these two demons would interrupt the plot and start discussing their strategies and plans for getting the teenagers to do bad things instead of good things. This approach worked well in Lord Foulgrin's letters, however once you get the point (and it doesn't take long), it really becomes annoying (especially to Christians!) to experience the constant interruptions in dialog to listen to the plots of these demons.
I guinelly hope these "Foulgrin and Ishbane" conversations do not become a trademark of Alcorn's future novels. If so, Alcorn should make two versions of his novels - One version, with the demon conversations and one without, especially for the more mature reader. If these irritating conversations had not been included, I would have given the novel 5 stars instead of 4 stars.
Overall, the Ishbane Conspiracy takes a contemporary and fresh look at the battles that teenagers face each day and remind the reader that without a strong grounding in the Lord, they are subject to- and prime candidates for- the influences of all that is evil.

Summary: The sequal to Lord Foulgrin's Letters
Comment: Like most of the books that Randy Alcorn writes, this was an excellent read. It made me really think about spiritual warfare, and how there really is someone out there who wants to destroy me.
This book continues the story that began in Lord Foulgrin's Letters. It has now been about a year since Jordan Fletcher died in a car accident, and his hurting wife has been left without a husband, and his three children have been left without a father.
The Ishbane Conspiracy begins on January 1st. The main characters are Jordan Fletcher's daughter Jillian, Jillian's friend, Brittany, a guy named Ian, a guy named Rob, and the demons Foulgrin and Ishbane.
This is the story of Jillian, Rob, Brittany, and Ian's spiritual struggle to find what they are missing in their lives. As Jillian and Rob hold onto God and to eachother to try to stay true to their beliefs, you will be captivated. This is an AWSOME book! Try reading it...it could save your life.

Summary: Awesome!
Comment: I really enjoyed reading this book. It gave a "behind the scenes" insight to what satan is trying to do in our lives to trip us up. There are so many things that happen to us daily and some of them we dont even realize Satan is using agaist us. This book just gives us a peek at what is really going on and motivates us as Christains to try and stay away from those things and encourage eachother to do the same.
