Counterpoint ~ Daniel Rafferty

CounterPointCounterPoint by Daniel Rafferty
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The novel Counterpoint by Daniel Rafferty is like a biblical science fiction novel with paranormal pieces intertwined into it. Humans, Angels, and Demons all play an equally huge part in the destruction of the world and what they are calling the "Human Project." Rafferty gives a great alternative view of how Earth works. The beginning of the novel was slightly slow and did not give enough background information on key characters. But I pushed through around about chapter four or five, I was able to get the gist of the key players. The Bassett family (humans) are really strong despite their outer appearance. Rafferty's character development improves exponentially after a few chapters in, you really have to stick with reading the novel; it all comes together eventually.

Daniel Rafferty sure put an unique spin on the battle of good and evil. Anyone who knows the stories of the Bible, world events and Greek lore will enjoy this novel and appreciate the references it entails. I hope this is a series book, I can envision this story line continuing for more novels to come. Great job Rafferty. CounterPoint by Daniel Rafferty is on Brittany's read shelf. Brittany gave this book 4 stars
