And
what do you have that you did not receive? I Corinthians 4:7 REVIEWS: “Karen Hancock builds a realistic world of nobles and barbarians, Romanesque arena games and a supernatural battle between good and evil. With Hancock’s latest, inspirational fantasy continues to come into its own." ~Romantic Times TOP PICK (41/2 stars) “The Light of Eidon is a worthy addition to my fantasy collection in every way . . .by making religious pursuit one of the driving elements of the main character’s life, she has made it possible to introduce serious discussion of religion within a perfectly logical progression of the story. I was kept as off-kilter as Abramm, wondering what really was true and what was not . . . Christian fantasy is back. I look forward to the next volume of Legends of the Guardian King with great expectations. Highly recommended.” ~Tim Frankovich, www.christianfictionreview.com “In the tradition of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, Karen Hancock has created an exciting allegorical fantasy… Hancock’s writing, often eerie and suspenseful, is rich in sights, smells and sounds. .. The allegories for atonement and salvation are fresh and insightful . . . so well done it should attract new readers to the genre.” ~Christian Retailing Spotlight Review “The heart of JRR Tolkien, the flare of Terry Brooks, the adventure of Tom Clancy and the sense of destiny of the Star Wars saga… The Light of Eidon speaks to anyone who has faced a seemingly hopeless situation, where God feels the universe away, and thos who do evil seem to have all the control. Hancock has a fresh approach to the age-old question: “Where is God when evil prevails?”

Teknofischzone (teknofisch.com) LETTERS: “…The most enjoyable book I’ve read since Lord
of the Rings and the most compelling allegory since Narnia! Thank you so
much” -- Elizabeth R., MO “I just finished your new book . . . at about five this morning. It’s been a long time since I’ve started a book that had to be finished in one sitting.. . the book was phenomenal!” -- Joy P, Internet “I am a big fan of your Arena novel,
and when I heard that you were putting out a new series, I hurried to the
bookstore for our newest book. I enjoyed it so much that I literally could
not put it down until I had finished it.” -- Adrienne B., Internet “I just wanted to tell you that I just
finished your book, The Light of Eidon, and absolutely LOVED it! Not being one to enjoy fantasy much, I was
surprised, even though I thoroughly enjoyed Arena. The characters
resonate and Abramm’s spiritual journey really spoke to me. I literally could
not put the book down. I finished it
in a day!” -- Erin G. Internet “I didn’t remember you wrote Arena when
I started Light, and was somewhat shocked to be reminded! . . . your latest novel takes a quantum
leap in the richness of the characters, the immersion of the reader into the
place, time and culture and the wonderful plot twists, turns, red herrings
and surprises. . . I’m sure you’ve heard favorable comparisons to Stephen Lawhead’s
or Robert Jordan’s fantasy works and I would agree.” -- Larry L., Internet “I’d thought Arena was good but this
book was incredible . . . complex plot, good writing, good characters!” -- Kris R., AZ “I read The Light of Eidon. LOVED IT! YOU’VE DONE IT AGAIN! WAY TO GO!!!”
-- Dusty, CA “…one of the best Christian novels I have ever read! It is great to see a Christian writer write a book that is so riveting. I can’t wait for the next one” -- Tish
L., NM “YOU DID IT AGAIN! I was delighted with The Light of Eidon. Your characters are so believable and intriguing and your description—WOW! I was hooked and engrossed. It’s hard to make your books last because I need to know WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? …great job!
-- Gretchen H., AZ “The Light of Eidon is easily the best
book I have read in quite some time . . .I believe Stephen King refers to
readers who buy all his books as “Constant Reader.” You now have a Constant
Reader.” -- David D., Internet “Once again you have created a book I just
couldn’t put down. It was great and I can’t wait for the next book to come
out. -- Liz
P., IL “I so enjoyed your book that I am reading it
again. J I can’t help myself.” -- Renee, HA If you've read The Light of Eidon and have a comment you'd like to have included on this page, drop me a line. You can click here to email me. I’d love to hear from you! |
