5.0 out of 5 stars An intriguing experience through faith and works!, May 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Joshua's Quest (Mass Market Paperback)

Reading "Joshua's Quest" was for me a very intriguing experience. This legendary trilogy by Willian O. Walker successfully blends three dramatic works into a great literary adventure. This book is so paced and written that it grabs your attention and holds it chapter after chapter, without pause. In addition, it is illustrated by beautiful word pictures that will aid you to clearly visualize each event.

Starting with the opening chapter, it graphically seizes the attention of the reader by tracing the steps of the hero, Joshua MacKinty into a raging rain annd windstorm. Joshua is searching for a revered manuscript that he needs to determine the truth of his supposedly assigned "Quest". The swirling wind mysteriously guides the hero's feet into a book store where a mysterious "person" delivers into his hands the manuscript that will clarify his mission and calling.

The suspense and actions that develop following the discovery in the bookshop will captivate the reader. I highly recommend the reading of this excellent book. It will stretch the mind and will be hard to forget.

5.0 out of 5 stars Victory of good over evil through faith and honor., April 5, 1999

This review is from: Joshua's Quest (Mass Market Paperback)

Joshua's Quest brings to memory books by the masters of literature I read in college literature appreciation. It has all the elements of a great novel which students of literature can evaluate and contemplate for many years. Mr. William Walker's book compares very favorably with those of the masters of literature.

Joshua's Quest is not shallow mindless entertainment. It evaluates moral and social conscience through the actions of its characters. It brings to mind biblical events and themes of the old testament. The characters and animals presented to the reader are not from this world yet they are presented in such a skillful manner that the reader can visualize them and believe they are real.

The events go from one climax to the next with building suspense. It is difficult to put the book down.
