First Place Winner of 2014 Gold Award Readers Favorite YA Horror First Place Winner of 2013 Dante Rosetti Award in YA Fiction What if the Biblical End Times unfolded in a way no one told you about and the rapture didn't happen before the tribulation began... "Makes you afraid of the end times again." - D. M. Dutcher for Sword Cross Rocket "Sanctuary crosses boundaries and borders and incorporates elements of all kinds of action and intrigue, from thriller-like adventure to a post-apocalyptic tale of life after aliens invade. Thus it will delight readers seeking something truly different, while disappointing those who anticipated a shallow, one-dimensional subject and story line." - Midwest Book Review
Left Behind for the Hunger Games generation
In a heart-racing thriller described as Falling Skies meet The Walking Dead, Jennie struggles to find a safe place for what’s left of her family. But it seems as though there is no place sacred, no place secure. First the aliens attacked the sun, making it dimmer, weaker, and half what it used to be. Then they attacked the water supply, killing one-third of Earth’s population with a bitter contaminate. And when they unleash a new terror on humankind, the victims will wish for death, but will not find it… When the world shatters to pieces around her, will Jennie find the strength she needs to keep going?

5,0 su 5 stelle Surprised me in great way!

What a great imagination Ms. Creeden has! A superb take on regular zombie stories, Sanctuary tackles it from a Christian perspective, and with great aplomb I must say!!
With her usual terrific writing, great narrative, and interesting characters, I loved this story and almost felt like I was watching a movie. Sanctuary kept me glued to my seat or bed while raced through the novel to see what happened next. Well done!

5,0 su 5 stelle Two of my favorites, aliens and zombies! I loved it!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 14 settembre 2014

As the story begins, the aliens have already damaged the sun, causing perpetual twilight during the day, making it difficult to grow crops. And they’ve contaminated the water supply, which has killed off one-third of Earth’s population.

As the aliens don’t do anything further for quite some time, just hover in the skies, people try to go about their daily lives.

But the aliens unleash something horrific, something beyond imagination, and it has serious repercussions, killing off another third of the population.

This is where things really get dicey.

What comes next? Are they planning on wiping us out completely? Or do they have something else in store?

Once I started reading Sanctuary I happened to glance at the cover and realized how perfectly it represented the story. The church is in the background and Jenny is prominent, just as she is in the book.

Jenny never did get to return for her second year of college. The aliens attacked again and life as she knew it crumbled.

Now, she’s separated from her parents and has to protect her five-year old brother.

I admire Jenny. She’s a young woman, alone, facing something we couldn’t even imagine. What she focuses on is getting her and her little brother to safety.

She’s scared to death as she navigates the streets. But she has keen instincts and stays sharp when things get really bad. She’s a natural nurturer and has a heart of gold.

You’ll get to know Hugh and Brad, the brothers.

Hugh was a teacher at Jenny’s old highschool. He was trapped in his apartment building. When people were being attacked in the street, his first instinct was to go outside and help, but the apartment manager wouldn’t risk unlocking the doors.

When he finally does leave his apartment, he ends up at the church. There he runs into his younger brother Brad.

There is no love lost between these two.

Brad is lucky when he stumbles upon the church. But he didn’t much like the fact his brother was there.

I liked Hugh. He was a quiet, introspective man. Willing to help in any way he could.

Brad was another story all together. Every story needs a villain and he seemed to wear the title proudly. He was arrogant and self-serving. Quite the spoiled brat. And he never missed a chance to get under Hugh’s skin. One thing he did had me thinking he might be redeemable but I can’t spoil it for you.

Each chapter is told from the points of view of Jenny, Hugh, and Brad, but they flow easily and you quickly recognize their individual voices.

This is listed as a christian thriller, but it’s not like any you’ve read before. There are aliens, dog/lion creatures that bite you and turn you into zombies, and the disturbing situations you have to deal with when in a group, struggling to survive.

I was kind of reminded of Stephen King’s The Mist, when they are all confined in the grocery store. Not everybody likes each other or gets along. Life and death situations make people do weird things.

While Jenny draws on her religious beliefs to get her through this, I never felt like I was being preached at. If anything, she had me asking myself how I would hold up, what would I turn to. And with so much going on, I was kept busy following the action, trying to stay one step ahead of the horror.

The religious tones in this story are a natural progression and make it more real. Look at all of the disaster movies and books out there. So many of them have people gathering at a church, either for spiritual strength or just solace in the company of others.

If you like a mix of genres, some science fiction and fantasy with your horror, I recommend you read Sanctuary. It keeps you connected, never bogs down, and there’s plenty of action and danger.

The author left all the story lines half finished. If at least some of them were resolved I would buy the next book but as it is I don’t want to read another book and find nothing resolved.

4,0 su 5 stelle Not just Another Alien Invasion Book!
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 30 novembre 2013
Acquisto verificato
When I started reading this book my wife asked me about it. When I said it was about aliens and zombie-like creatures she was not interested in hearing more. I couldn’t blame her because most books about aliens make me cringe, and I have never even picked up a book about zombies. While reading the book I tried to keep it to myself, but I found myself telling her about it repeatedly.

It started with, ‘but it’s good’ and by the end it was, ‘this book is really intense’. Pauline does a great job of focusing on the people in the story and not the alien creatures. She brings us into a terrible reality and then, with vivid clarity, helps us to find humanity and faith.

I know the book is based around an alien invasion, but that’s not at all what I think the book is about. It is about people, relationships, kindness, and most of all faith. What would you do and where would you turn when your entire world is turned upside down? Sanctuary answers those questions by following several, well developed, characters through the challenges they face and what they do when disaster strikes.

This book was well written, and very enjoyable! I really liked it.
