Title: Worth the effort!
Product review: I had some difficulty getting into this book, and struggled for the first third of the book. The chapters alternate between two separate storylines until the last third, and this can be a little disorienting. For me, jumping between storylines made it harder to connect with the characters. For a time I had to turn back a chapter to reacquaint myself with what had happened previously. Normally I would have set aside a book like this, but I kept reading because it came highly recommended. I am glad I did. The character development is in depth, the landscapes are vividly portrayed and the story really comes together in the last third of the book. The range of emotion the main characters travel through had me up late and unable to go to sleep after I finished. I will be reading the rest of this series and other Stephen R. Lawhead books.
