Well, Bryan,

Being compared to Clive Staples Lewis is quite an accomplishment! :D

My son, coppertop (who is also a poster here, albeit infrequent) is 16, and has read almost all of Lewis' works (Chronicles of Narnia, the "Space Trilogy", "Joy", "The Four Loves, "The Screwtape Letters", "Mere Christianity" etc.), as well as all but the final two Harry Potter books...let me see if the "family wallet" can spare enough for a copy of your first volume. :(

The comparison to C.S. Lewis was encouraging and humbling. His writing is an inspiration to me.

If you decide to get the book, I'd be interested in getting feedback from someone who enjoys Lewis.

Great news, Bryan. I've been wondering how much longer it would take to come out. I remember when you told me about it that it would be something I'd like to read. :clap: :fantastic: :notworthy:

Take care and stay safe.

Hey Bryan...Brett is 13 and Chloe' is almost 12, and you know how important that "almost" is at their ages...They are looking forward to recieving your book, we expect it any day now! I'll be glad to let you know what the kids think of your book, and I will have them share it with their school. It would be great for you if it were added to school's (AR)Accelerated Readers programs! Feedback coming shortly after the kids and I read up!

Thanks, fur. I sent the book, but I don't know how long the pony takes to get it out your way. I hope it arrives soon.

Bryan, I wanted to let you know that we recieved your book and I can not tell you how excited my son is to read it! He even won out on him reading it first, vs. me reading it this week while on a business trip with my husband! We'd love to send you a review when we're finished reading...thanks much Bryan!
