review 1: This was not the kind of book I usually enjoy, being fantasy and all. :) But it was well-written and there were enough true principles running through it to keep me thinking and happy all the time I read. Themes: of following your feelings--being in tune with them--using them to determine what is wrong or right to do, of doing what's right and everything will turn out okay, of acting as far as you know how to act with the faith that you'll be given the next step as you go, of love, of redemption, of coming from afar with inborn gifts, of being connected to all people across time.
review 2: I liked this book, especially the first half. Newbold reminds me a bit of Orson Scott Card and I thought I was going to like this book as much as some of Cards. However, I
... moream not as much a fan of fantasy as I am of science fiction and Newbold made his book way too long for my tastes and patience. He does a great job with painting word pictures and weaves many world view concepts into his story that I am comfortable with--I will probably read more of his stories. I just hope they are a little more focused and I hope he is more eager to seek an ending than he was in this book. less

I have not read this. Ariel read this and loved it. She is hoping for another book.

Fun to read a baseball fantasy that was just one big book instead of a series.
