Review: Very different. Very worthwhile!

I struggled with this one at first. The book consists of two very different parallel plot lines. One is the all powerful Church of Salvation which has its grip on the world threatened by a small band of members determined to use science to bring about its downfall. The second plot line as all about an arboreal fantasy world known as The Provider.This contrast of the almost sci-fi type fantasy with its mythical creatures and landscapes against the businessman on the planet Antium who is pitting his wits against organised religion. These two distinct threads run for a while before you start to make the connection and figure out what they have to do with each other.  Of course, there is a connection, but I’m not going to spoil it for you by revealing this in my review. Suffice to say, it’s a cracker! A book which makes you think, and one which is for the serious reader who likes to dwell on each chapter or happening before moving on to the next.  As long as you can cope with the jumping between two story lines, it’s a thrilling and compulsive read.
