Wow! This story was not at all what I thought it would be as I first started reading it! My predetermined ideas and thought patterns (regarding this particular genre) were slowly being disrupted as my mind - and heart - became forced to deal with the story that was unfolding in such a brilliant and beautiful way. Once I started getting through the initial building-blocks of the story in the first couple of chapters, I didn’t want to stop reading!

I’ve never been exposed to a story like this before and the author was certainly able to help me not only identify with certain elements of his story (like the idea of “perbia”), but to actually consider those elements! Why not, right? It definitely made it more interesting to read after I started hypothetically considering the fictional and intellectual architecture and premise of the story. I think that’s probably (maybe) what turns an ordinary sci-fi book into a great sci-fi book?!? It allows the reader to easily and eagerly want to give in to the premise/plot, fall in love with the characters, and feel things that stir the soul well after finishing the book."

I’ve found myself thinking back on several aspects of this story than probably any other fictional book I’ve read in the past several years! I think it’s because the author took a different (atypical) path with his story, which completely took me by surprise and made it such an enjoyable experience.

It’s such a fun and interesting story that is certain to leave some sort of watermark on your heart and mind. This book has definitely been one of the funnest, most enjoyable books I’ve read in a long while and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who enjoys good storytelling and appreciates the journey a reader takes whenever they’re pulled into a new literary adventure. I enjoyed this particular adventure so much that I read it twice with approximately 2-3 months between readings (and the second time was just as enjoyable as the first)!

I’m eagerly anticipating the release of the sequel, and my fingers are crossed that there will be more than one…or three…or five after that!! The author is definitely on to something special with this story. Definitely!

Hope this helps. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars

A mind-expanding glimpse beyond our world at the battle between good and evil
Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2023

This book quickly takes the reader into a view of the conflict beyond mortal sight and the world as we know it, and explores how the battle between good and evil not only exists beyond our own understanding, but where we might fit within it. While dealing with some dark events at times, it contrasts them with the importance and power of LOVE, as well as the dangers of pride (perbia), and offers hope and reassurance, that in the BIG eternal picture, the powers of Light and Truth ultimately control all things and are far greater than any darkness we might fear. It was an engaging, enlightening, and enjoyable read!
