Letter From the Devil Rating:
5 / 5
Norman Jetmundsen's Soulbane Stratagem is a gripping story on several levels. Protagonist Cade Bryson, an American student in Oxford, is searching for meaning, love and faith. When he discovers a packet of diabolical letters between the demon Soulbane and his superior Foulheart (yes, a la C. S. Lewis), he pursues all three with abandon. Fast action, deep emotion and moral victory highlight this first novel. I look forward to more from Jetmundsen, a practicing attorney. Finally -- a lawyer who doesn't try to copy Grisham!
What a thought provoker! Rating:
5 / 5
I didn't know what to expect with this book, and as I have gotten into it, I can see that Mr. Jetmundsen really put a lot of thought into getting the reader to think - think about their own lives in relationship to God, think about their relationships to others and think about their relationships with the church in general. I recommend this book very highly - as a quick read that has long lasting effects.
C.S. Lewis Speaks Again Rating:
5 / 5
A delightful and enlightening book. Even though the author is a lawyer, his view of the Devil's view of lawyers is right on the mark, and hilarious. However, if you don't want to read The Screwtape Letters and Mere Christianity again, don't read this book because you will feel compelled to reread those classics when you finish this novel. I find it hard to believe that anyone other than C.S. Lewis could have written a better sequel to The Screwtape Letters.
