Captivating and enchanting. Loved the movies growing up and now starting to read the books. Really enjoyed this one and the symbolism with the temptation, allure and effects of sin, along with a creative, theological picture of the creation and what it looks like to turn away from temptation and follow Jesus, even in the most perfect of worlds. Very much enjoyed this and looking forward to reading the rest of the series soon, then reading them to my son as he grows up.
