by Michael Jack Webb (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.6 out of 5 stars (71)

A Gripping Demonic Conspiracy Thriller That Will Keep You Up All Night— Haunting You Long After the Last Page

A murdered woman. A pastor with a cursed past. An ancient evil rising again.

When a woman from his congregation turns up dead, her body drained of blood with two puncture wounds on her neck, Pastor David Lighthouse is dragged back into a nightmare he thought he left behind.

Six years ago, David was a rising star reporter at the Denver Post until his fiancée was brutally murdered and he was branded a killer. He lost his career, his reputation, and his faith. Now the whispers have started again. The accusations mount. Once more, David is the prime suspect.

Determined to clear his name, David uncovers chilling links between Beth Barkley’s murder, his fiancée’s unsolved death, and the secret past of his estranged father. What begins as a desperate search for justice spirals into a centuries old war between good and evil.

Ancient, malevolent forces are stirring. A reclusive German billionaire is plotting a new holocaust rooted in Nazi occult experiments. Joined by an Auschwitz survivor, Beth’s fearless sister Lauren, and his own haunted father, David finds himself on the front lines of a terrifying campaign of spiritual warfare.

If they fail, millions could die and darkness will sweep the globe.

The Oldest Enemy is a fast-paced Christian supernatural thriller that blends Nazi secrets, demonic conspiracies, and high stakes spiritual warfare. If you enjoy the intense suspense of Frank Peretti, the historical intrigue of Dan Brown, and faith filled battles against the forces of hell, you will not be able to put this book down.

From Nazi secrets to demonic conspiracies, from shadowy cabals to unspeakable rituals this relentless thriller blends historical mystery with supernatural suspense.

Will David stop the darkness before it consumes the world? Or will he become its next victim? Get The Oldest Enemy now and find out. . .

"I was hooked by the first chapter and did not want to put it down."

Four 5-Star Gold Reviews From Reader's Favorite:

The Oldest Enemy is a paranormal thriller that dishes up some amazing action. Saying that I loved this novel would be an understatement. I read this in one go, stayed up way too late (was a little jumpy, to be honest) and I loved every second of it. There is nothing I would want the author to change about this novel; even the scary parts gave an adrenaline rush to keep me reading and wanting more . . . The supernatural concepts are very well described, making The Oldest Enemy a recommended read for both fantasy thriller fans and dark mystery or conspiracy fiction fans alike . . . With antagonists you will despise and protagonists you can really root for, you'll be whisked along on a journey filled with actions, suspense, romance, danger, and quest for survival . . . The Oldest Enemy is a page-turner with a very strong second half. I found myself carving off extra reading time from my normal routine, just to see what developments were next in the story. As things progressed, the book didn't get set down . . . 


The BookViral Review:
For readers who enjoyed Infernal Gates from Michael Jack Webb, The Oldest Enemy will be enthusiastically received and prove another outstanding read. A viscerally effective Supernatural Thriller. He is back doing what he does best.

As with Infernal Gates, his narrative is sophisticated. Treating his story's spiritual overtones with the utmost sincerity whilst exploiting the best-loved tropes of the genre. Readers would be disappointed if his historical references weren't underpinned by extensive research and he doesn't let them down. He strikes an equitable balance between the power of suggestion and the satisfaction of a good, in-your-face scare, as he masterfully modulates the dramatic rhythms of a superb plot. Webb's command of genre technique is masterful as he teases seemingly minor jolts into frissons of terror and readers can be sure that when it comes to the demonic manifestations they are wholly chilling!
Michael Jack Webb again proves a must-read with The Oldest Enemy . . . recommended without reservation.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Spiritual Thriller I Could Read More Than Once
    Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2013
    Verified Purchase
    "The Oldest Enemy" by Michael Webb is rich in historical content, presents a complex plot, raises significant spiritual questions, and covers several continents with many characters. In today's world of fluff and shallowness, I found it refreshing to read a well-researched book that presented a thought-provoking concept.

    The best books, in my opinion, are those that stretch you mentally and philosophically while telling a great story. I had no idea how all the pieces would fit together until the end, which kept me turning the pages. The integration of the plot was fascinating with the spiritual undertones. I hope that Michael Webb plans to write a sequel to this story as I could see the possibility of another book.

    As a Christian, I also found the world events as presented in "The Oldest Enemy" to line up with Scripture, presenting a plethora of insights for those who like to entertain prophecy. "The Oldest Enemy" is a great read and a spellbinding thriller.

    This was a new author for me and I really didn’t know what to expect, but it was a good book. It seemed the story bounced around quite a bit and the characters needed developing more, you never really got to know them. However, I still feel it is good for four stars.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read Novel of Spiritual Warfare and the Supernatural
    Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2013

    In The Oldest Enemy, author Michael Webb, takes the main character, David Lighthouse, on a journey that will connect the murder of his fiancé six years earlier to the current murder of one of his parishioners, together with the secret past of his estranged father that all leads to reveal the deceptive motivation of a German billionaire who seeks to unleash a worldwide holocaust.

    All efforts by David, his father, Michael, Lauren , the sister of his murdered parishioner, Beth Barkley, and stranger Ben Landers are thwarted by supernatural forces in cahoots with this German billionaire.

    Along the way, the reader learns about the weapons of spiritual warfare straight out of the Bible, the nature of demons and their modus operandi and what Christians need to do to be empowered with these biblical supernatural weapons to fight and be victorious in spiritual warfare. All this builds to one very climatic ending that reads just as if it was a movie and it would make a very good movie! It has many successful elements; suspense, mystery, romance, spiritual warfare, demonic possession , political overtones, action and adventure.

    Webb writes well and his plot structure is well constructed as well as his characters, very relational and believable. The reader finds himself liking and supporting David in his efforts to deal with his past in light of the current murder, his developing relationship with the murdered victims, sister, Lauren, his attempt to reconcile with his father, Michael, and learn how to be a Pastor under the mentorship of Senior Pastor Erasmus. The reader becomes very sympathetic to the failed, secret past of his father, Michael, and how this spills over into this reconciliation with his son. The reader also finds themselves cheering for both David and Lauren in their developing relationship and understanding Lauren's bitterness and hurt from the church and God over her past and the murder of her sister, Beth. The mysterious character of Ben Landers and where he fits into all the twists and turns in the plot, successfully adds an atmosphere of suspense and mystery and whether he is to be trusted or not. The reader will also be repulsed by the hatred, condescending nature and arrogant attitude and behaviour of the German billionaire, Eric Reinhardt, and as the plots develops, the reader's emotions progresses to fear and trepidation as the demon demands more of him, physically, mentally and spiritually as the plot moves to its climatic finale. These latter scenes are described graphically and the demon portrayed in typical horror based on the authors knowledge and research of demonology.

    Web's research for this book is very evident and definitely adds to the structure and credibility of the political and supernatural aspects of the plot. The reader can see where the experience of the author as a bible student pays off in the development of the spiritual warfare elements of the plot, the portrayal of the demon, and the political environment that is based on bible prophecy and the current political situation in the Middle East. This is all done very well and makes for a plot, character development, biblical eschatology and apologetics very nice fitted together. This is one novel that is entertaining as well as educational in biblical themes and doctrine.

    Many Christian reviewers criticise Christian authors for the inclusion of the Gospel message of salvation and reconciliation but it works very well in this novel. I found that this led credibility to the character it was addressed to and appropriate for the situation that she was in. Some reviewers find this Gospel message detracts from the plot but in this case it does not, it fits nicely into the spiritual armour needed to fight against the supernatural forces described in the Bible and portrayed in this novel.

    This is my first novel by this author and it will not be my last. I am looking forward immensely to his other work.

    Highly Recommended.

    I was hooked by the first chapter! I gave this book 5 stars for entertainment as it had a great story line. Entrigue, deception, and mysteries with multiple threads woven together in a compelling tale made this an enjoyable read. I have read Robert Ludlum with pen in hand to keep track of all the characters! Mr. Webb eliminated this need as each one came alive in a plausible fashion. You feel that you know them and are drawn into their story efforttlessly. I did learn a lot of history which added veracity to the tale and created my sense of urgency to complete the book. I found it personally enlightening relating to spiritual warfare and the power of prayer. A great story of evil overcome by God...as the Spirit wills and through the hearts of His creation. Can't wait to read another one by Mr. Webb.

    Dealing with demons is not for the fainthearted! The best books and movies that delve into the supernatural realm are based at least in part on spirit-world realities, not just imagination. I've encountered many demonic manifestations in my years living in Indonesia. They are real, they are scary, but their power pales in comparison to God's almighty power. Michael J. Webb illustrates this beautifully in a story that tracks a specific demonic assignment from the Holocaust into the present day. His presentation of how demonic beings manifest and how those who know God can overcome them mirrors much of my personal experience. I believe this book's message is an important contribution to Christian fiction.

    Wow! Fantastic, fast paced story that is not your run-of-the-mill story line. I truly couldn't put it down, so I would suggest you start reading it early in the day!

    This book is a terrific read with compelling action and believable characters that not only got my adrenalin going, but touched my heart as well. The skill with which the author guides the reader through the twists and turns and discoveries of the plot is masterful. The characters quickly seemed as real as any living person I know, and the action could have come from today's headlines.

    Thank you so much, Michael J. Webb, for this story. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I hope there will be more from you soon!
