Loved this book so much. I just had to take a deep breath when I finished this book. Everything is in this book from god, demons, angles, a dog, a bear, the devil, and even a dragon. Has an end that will have you saying WHAT & i need to read the next book NOW! Julie hall is an amazing author! Can't wait to read the 3rd book.

Warfare is the sequel to Huntress, so if you haven't read the first book, drop everything and grab a copy! You won't be disappointed. Huntress was an amazing read, so I've been super excited to get to Warfare. I've gotta say, it was just as good as Huntress and... dare I say it?... maybe even a little better... It seemed to have more of everything, as crazy as that sounds. More action, more intrigue, more danger, more fight scenes, more spiritual growth, more romance, more humor. And as with the first book, I was completely and totally drawn into it's sequel. Everything else disappeared except for this book, this world, these characters.
When Audrey's family is targeted by an unprecedented level of demon attacks, she will do anything, defy authority and friends, to help them. I completely felt Audrey's panic and fear for her family, but, my goodness, she is so stubborn! There were quite a few times I wanted to reach through the book and shake some sense into her! But I could definitely see how much she's grown from the previous book. More of Logan's past was revealed, which explained a lot about why he acted the way he did. One of my favorite characters in Warfare had to be Audrey's new mentor, Hugo. He's warm and inviting and kind, but with an unwavering air of authority about him. I really enjoyed all of his sage advice and wisdom.
There were some shocking twists and turns and reveals, some where I thought my jaw was gonna hit the floor. There was, also, a great lesson about putting all your faith and trust in God and not yourself. One of my favorite aspects of this series is the friendships. Even though they were tested quite a bit in Warfare, they were genuine and real, so great to read about.
Warfare was a fantastic book that I had a hard time putting down. And that ending... oh my!... Book three can't come out soon enough!
Memorable Quotes:
“He never leaves us or forsakes us. His Spirit goes with us, Audrey, and if we are sensitive to His presence, we’ll hear what we need to hear.”
“God can do amazing things, even with faith the size of a mustard seed.”
“...though your path may seem hard at times, it brings the greatest reward. Some may choose to take what appears to be the easy way, but in the end they’ve only hurt themselves. The Father cares for you deeply, and although you will face challenges, it is in the furnace that your character will be refined.”
“No matter what happens, remember the Father works all things to good. Never forget that.”

Sometimes the 2nd book in a series can feel like it drags or is a filler, but Warfare is definitely none of that! There are many new things to discover, new situations, developments, twists I didn't see coming, with some laugh out loud moments too. I think I finished this book even faster than the first. I get so frustrated when a main character does something so obviously stupid and selfish, and I had a moment of when I just wanted to shake that character, but almost immediately you can see the "why" they chose to do what they did and the growth and development that came from it was worth it!

I both liked and disliked so much of this story. My least favorite thing is the interpretation of god. It is just boring to me. I think the premise is interesting along with the characters. Although I wish we had seen a deeper development with the characters. I plan to read the next book but I am hoping for more. There is so much potential.

Another great read
This book picks up a bit after the first and throws us right back into Audrey's life. A hectic life full of heartbreak, insecurities, and learning processes. The progression is again focusing on putting your trust in a higher power which may not suit some but really works for this series. You don't feel forced to accept religion in just this view but instead feel challenged to look at yourself and how you view life.
The romance is there but muted and really doesn't pick up till halfway through. Building to the ultimate cliffhanger.
Book 3 cannot get here soon enough!

So evil to leave me hangin like that... where's Book 3 already!
Couple of things I saw coming before Audrey but delivery is comfortable if not super frustrating.
Audio made even better by Moyen!

Continuing on in the series. It was good enough but not exciting. I felt it more of an emotional and informational continuation then an action packed exciting addition to its previous novel.

Didn't love the first half of this book, but it definitely got better in the second half!
