Arena
Karen Hancocks's Arena is such a good book. A little bit of Pilgrim's Progress, a little bit of Hind's Feet on High Places, a little bit of Star Trek, this book is written with such care and love you can't help but admire it. It's got depth, it's got passion, it's got character, it's got action and cool tech, and quite a bit of surprisingly-well-done Christian allegory. I LOVE THIS BOOK!!
