What a fun ride this was. A world in which to escape with enough truth to keep it real. That’s what I look for in Christian fiction. This book qualifies.

Christian fantasy entertainment

This is not redemptive, yet it certainly could be in future books. It’s full of magic, danger, realistic characters, and everything else.

The world is well-built, complex, and intriguing. As usual, with a book of this quality, it was hard to leave and I’m really upset that books two and three (or whatever) are not available.

Spiritually, I’ll give it a three

We have a Creator God and his Son. It’s inferred that this Son did something special, though it isn’t clear he’s a true savior yet. There’s no mention of a Holy Spirit, which is always sad.

But I am very hopeful, going into book Two that Lauricia will take care of all of that. Enough so, that I am awarding her the Christian Religious Fiction award of excellence. To know what that means, you need to read A Spiritual System for Rating Books. 

The spiritual level of evil is harder to pin down. It’s almost four-star, meaning that I expect some spiritual warfare in the next book. But it may remain a three-star evil and three-star Christian. That is still excellent entertainment in my book. I do hope Lauricia ramps it up to redemptive as the series is completed. She has an excellent start.
