This book really made me wonder: did Jesus really have a guardian angel? I read this book before I read Angelwalk, and had to go back and look at it again. The irony of Jesus having a guardian angel who believed at one time Satan was unfairly punished was just amazing.

This book also made Jesus a little more human to me. Sometimes, we think of the God in Jesus so much that we forget that he went through the human experience as well. An excellent book I would recommend to anyone.

I saw this book and something drove me to buy it. It was very interesting to see what being a guarding angel for Jesus would be like. To be able to be so close to Jesus. It gave a different perspective of the life of Jesus Christ. The most interesting thing that the book brought to me was the fight between the fallen and the unfallen angels. With God letting the angels grow in their own way. Just like God today lets us decide what path we take. Even when we walk down the wrong path God is willing to take us back. That is ofcoarse if we are willing to walk that path. Many people say that want to be with God, but they head in the wrong direction. I guess many people just don't know how to read maps.

As I have never attempted this before, I just now stated that the reader from Sacramentos review was helpful to me. I thought I would then be able to explain my resoning behind this. As I could not then, I will now. I am a Roman Catholic who adores her faith, and as such I follow the Church's teachings. I am pro-life, and do not believe in homosexuality as a valid life choice. This does not mean by any standards that I am "homophobic" or that I consider myself holier than others or more righteous. I follow the belief of "love the sinner, hate the sin." The review I am speaking of has given me cause to read this book, because it sounds like something I will like, rather than the liberal writing I had thought it would be from the synopsis. Thanks and God Bless you!

I really enjoyed this book.The story as seen by Darien is a differnt in-site into what might of really happened as Jesus Chirst walked the road to our salvation.I encourage all people to read this book.

I am half way through this book. It is awesome too. I would recommend them all.

I believe very strongly that we all have our guardian angels. Consequently the thought of Christ having his own is a fascinating yet believable premise. Since the Bible says Jesus took our human nature, it wouldn't surprise me if his Father has given him one to accompany him on his human voyage. However, the part that turned me off to the point that I could not finish the book, I compromised by reading the last 2 pages, was the right wing Christian viewpoint. This viewpoint was represented by the author's chararacterization of two fallen angels selected to spread evil by abortion and homosexuality. I nearly vomited. As a devote Christian, feminist and human right supporter, I do not believe God is anti-choice or homophobic. Just as God told Darien (and gave him a human body) as he was at his lowest ebb and mourning beside the dead body of Jesus to "remove the stone!" I would say to the author "remove the stone from your heart and mind"; God loves all of his/her children. May the peace of the Lord be always with you!

I am the reviewer from Sacramento.I was a little distressed when I read my review sparked their interest: She agreed with its right wing Christian viewpoint. I am also a devout Christian who reads the Bible with "Heart and Mind" to quote Peter Gomes. God loves all of her children. I felt like my review was used to give aid and comfort to the enemy. I hope another progressive writer will take the theme and show Jesus' and humanity's real enemies: racism, classicsm, poverty, meanspirited, and homophobia. May the Peace of the Lord be always with you!
