Frank Peretti
Has any one read any of Frank Peretti's books?
He is a suspence author, and he is AWESOME
He has written Hangman's Curse (also a movie), monster, The Oath (has a dragon in it),
this present darkness, piercing the darkness, and co-wrote House.
I LOVE his books! The Oath is especially good.

Yeah those are awesome. If you liked those you would LOVE his other books.
I really like "Hangmans curse" and "The Oath".

lets see I'll just type out the thing on the back of the book so I don't give anything away...
Monster:
"something glimmered in that black chasm... Two huge eyes, like silvery green headlights floating slowly in the dark. They blinked.... then vanished."
More terrifying than any nightmare, something has scathed a very real path through the Idaho hills, paving it in blood and echoing screams. It lives, it hunts, and it's just getting started.
THIS TIME, THE MONSTER IS REAL.
The Oath:
An ancient sin. An ancient oath. A town with a deadly secret...
Something sinister is at work in Hyde River, an isolated old mining town in the Pacific Northwest.
Something evil.
Under the cover of darkness, it strikes without warning, taking life in the most chilling and savage manor. The latest victum, nature photographer Cliff Benson, was brutally killed while camping in the mountains. His wife Evelyn, who was found bloody and half-crazed on a logging road, now lies dazed in a local hospital bed with only vague recollections of the terrifying attack.
With little hard evidence to go on, Sheriff Les Collins closes the case, chalking it up to the work of a rouge bear -- just like so many other unsolvable deaths and disappearances that have plagued Hyde River over the years.
But wildlife biologist Steve Benson isn't convinced. He knows bears. And he knows that his brother, a seasoned woodsman like himself, would have taken every precaution. Refusing to let the matter drop, Steve begins his own investigation.
Attractive, auburn haired Sheriff's Deputy Tracy Ellis isn't convinced either. She grew up in Hyde river, a town haunted by bizarre incidents. She's also seen enough things swept under the rug by her boss to know somethings amiss. And when another person turns up missing, she joins Steve in his search for the truth.
But the harder Steve presses the townsfolk for informaton, the more close ranks, as if sworn to secrecy. All except for Levi Cobb, an aging mechanic who talks to himself. Considered to be the "town crazy man," Levi rants and raves about old superstitions and folktales to noone who will listen.
It is only when Steve gains acess to the old letters and diaries of the town's forefathers, that he begins to peel away the layers of mystery surrounding Hyde River. As he does he and Tracy are drawn closer to each other and to the town's terrible secret. What they discover is a pradator more terrorfying than anything they had imagined and a town in the grip of unspeakable evil.
Steve realizes his own life is in jeopardy, as is Tracy's. If they have any hope of saving themselves, they must confront the full force of evil.

The spiders were the best part, man! When it shows that one crawling along the wall and then it leaps @ the camera my mom screamed so loud! I was glad it wasnt in theaters or I would be even more deaf than I already am.

It's more of a mystery than suspence.
