Superb. I can't really can't put more words into it. There is a lot in the book, and the amazing part of the book is in it's complex simplicity. (follow that one). You can try and figure out the mysteries of the book from the beginning, or simply let it wash over you.

I have read a lot of books, including Lord of The Rings and Harry Potter, and this truly leaves them in the dust!!! I can't even put how much I love this book into words. I bought this one and got it autographed the day it came out, as I did with the first book. (Our family knows F. W. Faller.) Wow. I didn't know it was even POSSIBLE for a book to be THIS AMAZING. So what are you waiting for? READ IT!!!!!!!!!
