Greater than one weekWorlds Unseen is an epic tale of determination and triumph. Maggie Sheffield was given a scroll from a dying man—who holds many secrets. She must take it to the only person who can read it. On her journey to Pravick, Maggie encounters creepy shadows and other evil forces. It’s a good thing she has others to accompany her on her journey. She joins with the surviving members of the Council, The Ploughman, Libuse (a princess) Nicolas Fisher (a gypsy with the gift of hearing) and many more. Rachel Starr Thomson does a wonderful job by creating intriguing characters and parallel worlds. Her lyrical prose and allegoric biblical components enriches the story as well. Worlds Unseen is a story fit for a wide audience, and is definitely a must read!

> 3 dayI cant believe I forgot to review this book! Most of the bad reviews are by people who didnt want a Christian overtone to the book. To them I say, dont take away from the book just because of that! Only read this one in the series, but I am sure the series would be interesting.

> 3 dayThis book was an unexpected surprise. Im finding myself enjoying fantasy stories more and more these days, and I especially love those with Christian elements. A few times I thought some things couldve been made clearer. I was confused at times by the ancient history of this storyworld, but perhaps I was looking for the parallels and symbolism to our world too much. Overall, I really enjoyed following these characters on their first adventure and immediately went and purchased the second book in the series.

Never without a book
> 3 dayI loved it! Started reading, put on hold and forgot to get back to it for several books. When I got back to it, I wondered why I put it on hold in the first place. This is a Christian-based fantasy novel, but it is not in your face as it focuses more on the good vs. evil than a lot of scripture quoting in this book. The characters are well developed and engaging. Once hooked, you keep reading because you have to know how things turn out. The author provided a satisfactory ending in the event you dont want to go on to the next book. I plan to purchase the next book, as I need to see how things eventually turn out. I did find myself going back to the beginning and other sections to review what happened as the story unfolds. I like that because it means I have to pay attention to fully follow the story.

> 3 dayI enjoyed this very much, and plan to purchase the Omnibus. I didnt know this was Christian fiction before reading, but realized it quickly. As a Grandmother of 11, several of whom are avid readers, I am going to share this with them. They will enjoy the fantasy aspect of the book, as well as the Christian allegories, and I know it is safe for them to read (which is very important to me).

> 3 dayAs a student of Gods word, I love the symbolism of each character. Ms. Thomas writes with such imagination and detail, you can see her world. I look forward to the next book!

> 3 dayGreat story! Well written with only a lost me spot in a couple of places. Rachel is an engaging writer who knows how to make a story come alive. I highly recommend Worlds Unseen. I am now reading the second book in the trilogy. Superb!

Greater than one weekRecently, I have been really enjoying epic fantasy, grand in scope and packed with descriptive details. Other works have left me feeling less than involved in the story and rather shallow. I have also had less time to devote to reading than I could wish. Upon starting this book, those two facts kept me wondering if this would be another shallow quick read. That definitely was not the case. The story grabbed me, and I found myself looking for ways to create reading time. It swept me along and kept me wondering what was next, without being confusing. At times, I could wish more detail to better envision the world around the characters, but my epic desires can be sated elsewhere. This is intriguing just the way its written. I also tend to prefer true sword & sorcery fantasy without modern elements to it. Though the technology here included some recent developments (i.e. trains), it was interesting rather than distracting. As for being religious fantasy, I found hints and suggestions of truth and beauty throughout. However, I look forward to seeing if future episodes of the trilogy have a bolder approach towards a true witness. Overall, a great read that inspired me to purchase the rest of the trilogy. This title is frequently on the free list, where I picked it up, and I definitely believe you wont be disappointed to try it.
