That’s all this story is about and it includes a lot of action and details about the adventures and struggles they face. Secondly, if you like reading about the medieval times with jousting and sword fights and wonderful, wholesome, pure knights then this book would be great for you. Practically the whole novel centers around religion, and it’s probably helpful to have a working knowledge of religion (which I don’t). Firstly, if you’re a complete lover of Christianity who knows all the specific holidays and traditions that go along with the religion, this may be a good book for you. So, my recommendation is going to be based off a combination of experiences, just to give a fully unbiased opinion on who should read it. This makes me think that I have been spoiled by the great books I read, leaving me with impossibly high standards for books (sorry guys!).
