What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

I think it is fine. The book contains magic and things that are not in the contemporary world, hence as expected should, and is hidden from the world.ArriettyClock wrote: ↑03 Jul 2020, 04:10 Did you find Zona believable ? Are there any descriptive areas that you think were lacking in the novel which could have helped you understand Zona better? (e.g. descriptions of the locations, or more background on why it's forbidden, or a better scale on how large it is?)
It was a bit annoying that the novel was slow to start, and I think this contributed to my impatience surrounding the Zona.

I'm with you on the forbidden part but not the geography. Pinpointing Zona's location on the world map would make it unbelievable, as there is no magic in the world.book_fanatic_ wrote: ↑05 Jul 2020, 03:50 I think the author could have done a better job in the description of Zona. Several questions are left unanswered about its being forbidden and the geographical location. The writer could have been a bit more illustrative to engage the reader more.

The descriptions and succession of events were detailed enough for me to believe in them. However, when it came to the effects of Zona like how the land alters one's aging and hormones, it was hard to deem realistic. Also, the overly kind and humble talking wolves threw me off.
