    Excellent Book!

    I enjoyed this book immenseley! The plot and sub-plots intertwined with the character development to make this book difficult to put down. I highly recommend it.

    Starts out good, but

    Devolves into semi-crazy religious imagery. The author has a talent for character building, but about halfway through the (very long) story the main characters are lost in the preaching. Sadly, I was unable to finish it. If you believe that the only true angels are those that give God the credit for their work, you'll probably enjoy it. If you believe that great character comes in many forms, not all of them Christian, it might not be the book for you.

    Excellent!

    I normally read mystery novels and only chose this one was free. What a pleasant suprise. I could not put the book down. Characters are so real you feel like you know them. The messages in this book are challenging. This is one of the best books I have read in years. This one is a step up to the classic "To Kill a Mockingbird". A definite must read!

    Excellent Read!!!

    Usually people outside the church only hear about the political "social" issues the evangelicals desire. This book was not only a great read but it gave some clear examples of people who live in the presence of God and how exactly they go about that living. It really is one of the best books I've ever read -- "Christian" or secular! The author did a great job of character development and his characters were quite different from one another and had great depth.

    Really got me interested. Just the prologue was a little slow. I'm glad I went a bit further.
