Exploring beyond the Boundaries - The Enclave

-

I lied! There I said it. I visited our local Christan retailer: Selah and with a 50% off coupon and had to purchase Karen's new book. I just could not hold off. Literally I blame it souly on too much excitement about the release and then all it took was cracking the first page and I was hooked. So the sabbatical was off for a brief four days and is now back on. Still, I wanted to give you a quick sneak peek! "The Enclave"

I have read several other blog critics that give you way to much of the story. In fact, I highly recommend you don't even read the back cover....just dive right into chapter one.

You know what it made me realize - how much the Bible has to offer. I even had to get mine out and really scour. Saying to myself a few times, "No, that's not in there is it?" What a fantastic way to learn. Challenge yourself to see a world that could be and might even be. Explore beyond the boundaries of what is safe and learn how to lean wholeheartedly on the Lord.

After you read it I do hope you will come back and share what you found. It held me, pulled me in and then taught me things I did not realize until I was finished. Thank you Karen for delivering yet another powerful and fun book.

I am not currently reviewing a book/author or even reading Christian fiction at the moment. It is an interesting break from the normal and I am enjoying selecting the titles right now. Since I rarely read in the secular market it is often difficult for me to find authors that are enjoyable or to my tastes. In May or perhaps early of this year I was lent a copy of Twilight by Stephanie Meyers . Wait! Hold on! If you are completely rolling your eyes at this point and believe that I have joined the teen band wagon let me get just a few words in edgewise here. Thank you. As I was saying, I was lent a copy of Twilight a while back. I had no real desire to read it because, as you, I had no desire to join the throng of teens and even pre-teens obsessing over this book/saga. The copy I had received was at the top of my "to read later" pile, so I picked it up and turned to page one. Please understand that I am not a fan of Vampires or even that sort of thriller market. I enjoy ...

Where do you see us in say 15-20 years? Common point that most people with a five year plan at least consider. Dare say, though, that you probably postulate that many of the lifestyles you have now will be the same. Think so? In past posts I talked about the unknown and how if we are truly honest with ourselves we know that there is a great deal we don't "know." Thinking about that unknown is not something we often don't like to do. Why? Because it can be scary. We like control - we like certainty (to a point) and we like answers. Yes, that build-up means that I have another book for you to read that will challenge you to think differently about what our world could be like in the future. Will you be in the same SES class? Will you have power? Will you be tattooed to slavery? Or invisible to those that have it all? Two posts back I mentioned that Sigmund released book #2! I truly tried hard to take my time with it. However, he is just one of those authors that get...
