This book sounds like a great adventure and an excellent way to learn about goodness. I do like that you added that some people seeking release from the pandemic and the reality of the world would not enjoy this book as it focuses heavily on those aspects. Thank you for advising readers and writing this comprehensive review!

I am a big fan of dystopian fantasy, However not being of the Christian faith, threw me off with the biblical references, for personal reason, however I was still able to follow the story line of the intro. For anyone that loves a good Christian Fiction. This would definitely be a good read.

I also really liked the initial disclaimer about the talking animals and how to identify when they are talking, That is a great help for those who wish to read the book in its entirety. Also loved the breakdown of characters, very movie like lol.

Thanks for the great review, I'm really excited to finish this book. The adventure fascinates me while the Christian aspects makes me want to go deeper to figure out the bigger picture.

Your review captures the essence of "Of the Earth" brilliantly, highlighting the unique dynamic between the characters and their journey towards the Smoky Mountains. Your description of the puppy, cat, and wayfarer's bond adds an exciting layer to the adventure.

I usually don't read books with animal characterisation, so I'll probably skip this one. It does seem like a great concept though.

Surprisingly, despite the fact that Sci-Fi/Fantasy is totally not my cup of tea, I am quite eager to read this book, because I find the reviewers' description delightful! From one angle, the story sounds simple, but that's exactly what highlights the true meaning and depth behind simplifying simplicity. Thank you and congrats with BOTD!

This Christian, dystopian, fantasy adventure book sounds like it is unique from other books in the dystopian genre. It also seems like it is well-written and will leave the reader with some heavy thought-provoking concepts, perhaps even life changing. Great review!
