Very nice, although not at the same level as Paper Grail and Aill the Bells on Earth. ( )

This is the first Blaylock book I've read outside of the "Cheeser" series (His earliest works). It's also the first full-fledged novel from Mr. Blaylock in about 9 years. That being said, I was unsure of what to expect since he changed genres.

I felt that the book could have used some more history on the Knights, but maybe that is being saved for another book. I could also see Calvin Bryson, an unassuming hero, being a central character in future series. Overall, I found the book to be very entertaining, but I know part of that is because I'm very familiar with the area where the story mainly takes place. Though without that level of intimacy, I still believe the story stands on its own. ( )
