This is an amazing science fiction fantasy novel highlighting adventure, allegory, Christianity, religion, and overcoming darkness. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has an inciteful OnlineBookClub review. Congrats @marknorris on the BOTD selection.

I enjoy reading fantasy thriller and based on the great review, am interested in knowing how religion will make this book stand out.

I am not a Christian but the plot appeals to me. I'll try reading it soon. It will be my second time reading a fantasy thriller. Thanks for an authentic review.

That quote, ‘My people perish for lack of knowledge’ is an all-time favourite of mine because of its application in real life. But it looks like that’s about the only thing I would appreciate about this book for I do not enjoy any religion-based fiction.

This is such an amazing fantasy thriller. A great allegory of Christian-based spiritual warfare. I like the fact that it relates to the Christian life and the battles that they face in their journey, yet an adventure. Great review!

Sounds like exciting and action packed. The religious element is interesting. I don't know if I would enjoy it but I am sure many others would.

I am a huge sci/fi fan, but I am not a fan of religious overtones. This book seems like it would be a little more intense for my taste.

The fact that there are many playoffs of characters in the Bible has interested me greatly. I have a feeling that I will really enjoy this book based on the statement about Hosea alone. Thank you for a well-written review! :)

It's interesting to know that it's an allegory of the Christian faith; though I'm not religious, as a fan of fantasy thriller novels, I'd read this one.  I found it intriguing, thus I'm curious. Also, it seems  an interesting story, indeed.
