Review of "Rogue" Has My Hair Standing on End

They say that war is hell and perhaps its demons thrive there more than any other place. The thriving of demons in “Rogue” by P. A. Minyard certainly brings that idea to the front as Major Daniel Parker struggles with the demon who has overtaken him. Having died by the hand of the demon Benedict in the battle at Antietam, Daniel is called upon by “the Father” to be one of the beloved who fight in a different realm between heaven and hell. As his guardian, Bernard, begins to guide him through his new task as a “Beloved,” Daniel is unwittingly possessed by the very same demon who killed him. Daniel’s struggle suddenly goes beyond the battlefield between heaven and hell to a battle that rages inside his own mind and his own spirit. His only deliverance is to be found in the courage and strength of his brother Jonathan. As Jonathan pursues his rogue brother in order to turn him back toward his noble task, Jonathan must resist the same temptations as Daniel, but does he have the strength to resist the viciousness of the enemy? As the battles of the Civil War rage on in reality, the battle between heaven and hell rages on behind the scenes; a battle which has raged on between demons and the Beloved since the beginning of time.



What goes on behind the scenes of reality has always been a fascinating concept. “Rogue” by P. A. Minyard brings that fascination to life in such a way that the reader won’t be able to keep from turning pages to discover which force will ultimately victorious. The depth of development of both character and plot make this a thrilling and suspenseful read. Intriguing, suspenseful and captivating; “Rogue” will put you on the threshold between heaven and hell where the action will take you by the throat and make you uncertain whether the hero will prevail.
