I also read the original version of A Beacon of Hope. This revised edition is better. It has scences that were cut out of the original version making the book flow beautifully. Whether you like fantasy or not, if you like a wonderfully original and intriguing story, this book is a must-read. ...more

Best book that I've read in quite while. Only book that I've read recently that I've given 5 stars.

The world that this book places you in is amazing. The world if similar enough to our world that the differences in flora, fauna, technology and customs stand out, giving you a deep understanding of the world and its characters.

The book moves along so quickly that I finished it in two days...I don't do that.

My only regret is that the book was not longer. I can't wait for the next book.
