AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
you should DEFINITELY purchase this book! It is one of the best books I have ever read, in terms of characters, plot, quality of writing, etc. Oriel, the archangel who narrates the book is so funny, though Jesus was my fave character, because He is cool and passionate, and so Godly yet so human at the same time! It's a really hard concept to understand, but Harrison puts it across crystal clear.
I could not put this book down. I now want all my friends to read it. You don't have to be all religiony and Christiany to enjoy it, just read it because it's funny and sad and totally totally gripping. It'll make you laugh and it'll make you cry
Insightful and well researched
This is a delightful book! A must to read at Christmastime. It may change your thinking on the birth of Christ forever.
Excellent
This is the first one of this series of boks that i read. I could not put it down. Once i finished i was straight on the net buying the next one. I even bought my mum one of the books. any time someone visits looking for a christian fiction this is one of the first books i recommend. Happy reading. An Angel's world is an interesting one and humorous too.
