I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. As I have made my way a second time though Hunt's books I found a mixed bag. Some approached the high level I once considered them on par with while many others fell far short, others that I had once ranked with four and five stars. Thus, I now keep my expectations low when I pick up the remaining books in my stack to re-read.
Although some aspects of the narrative approached the limits of reasonable suspension of disbelief, the narrative as a whole probed the depths of things many only reluctantly approach. Yes, this is a "religious" book. For those who are unfamiliar with God's amazing grace, the solution will appear as "deus ex machina." I often abhor the aforementioned technique. In this case, the abilities of my God are on full display.
This book survives round two of the purge from my personal collection.
