>"I read the manuscript in less than two days. This wasn't due to any urgency but because I found the stories of the two main characters so compelling."
>"The book is very readable. I found the voices of the two narrators convincing and I cared about them. The minor characters are very well drawn; Canon Peter is a wonderful creation. There were many superbly narrated scenes, such as the rolling of the dice in Chapter Seven."
>"I love this book, Kevin. I felt so many emotions on reading it: tears, sadness, anger and something close to the power of Spirit even in the worst moments."
