I really liked this book -- wasn't sure I would but once I started, I couldn't stop reading. Overstreet's writing is beautiful, very lyrical and full of imagery. It is not a quick read that you can blow through in a weekend, but worth the time. There was some Christian imagery in it, but I did not find it to be overdone and still thought the book was an engaging story.
If I had to find a fault with this story, I would agree with a previous reviewer who said the made up language was overdone (just a touch), but the characters are so engaging and the story interesting enough, that I really didn't give it much thought until I read these reviews. So highly recommended and definitely worth your time if you'd love to read a beautifully written fantasy.
