There is an overarching theme of forgiveness that gives this book substance to support the adventure.
Listened to this on audio and the performance was overall pretty decent. I loved the demon voice and how caricatured some of the characters were. Makes for quite an entertaining listen!

Everything is nailed here. No one is underwritten. It’s just dripping with beauty and depth. Run don’t walk to pick this up.

Also, I feel like I have to mention the fact that this book is heavily influenced by Christianity, but you don't have to be religious to enjoy it. I'm an agnostic atheist and didn't have any issues with the content. It's clearly just supposed to be a work of fiction that has themes that are relevant to the time period in which it takes place. The author doesn't try to push any beliefs off on the reader so, if this is a concern, you can relax and treat this as any other work of horror fiction.
