After reading a rather heavy historical fiction novel I was looking for something lighthearted to read. I decided to try this fantasy novel for something different and because of all the great reviews. I realize I am in the minority here but I didn’t love this book. For one it seemed like the author spent a lot of time “teaching” his audience through one character- Arthur. I also struggled with the portrayal of the antichrist character Lucy. While at points the writing was humorous in many other ways it seemed to be mocking Christian beliefs, in particular that evil exists.

Loved this one! Even though it appeared to have been intended for a YA audience, the themes were interesting and worth thinking about.

One of my favorite books I’ve ever listened to. Not sure I would have enjoyed it as much as I did if I would have read it myself.

A prescient theme, but I didn’t understand the main character.
