I received a copy of Huntress from the author after winning a giveaway of the paperback. I hope to continue with book two, Warfare, and see where this series goes. (Regardless that it did have some epic spiritual warfare and heartfelt moments of encountering God, surrendering to Him, and realizing His deep love.)īut it did make me think, for certain! And ponder the new heaven and new earth and what God has planned for us there. Granted, this is more an "in-between" place while everyone whose died waits for the end of time and the making new of all things.Īnyway, it was interesting, action-filled, and fun, but I couldn't take it too seriously because of those things. I don't believe that's exactly how it's going to be in heaven. People were waiting for their spouse to join them from earth. She also seeks God in her afterlife, having believed in Him before she died.īut there were things like tears, romance, doubt, anger, and fighting in this "afterlife".
Our main characters encounters demons and Satan, who comes disguised as beauty and light. Huntress isn't fantasy, but speculative fiction set in our contemporary world. This book is the first book I've read that the character dies in the beginning, and we proceed to discover her afterlife. That all being said, there were still some things that niggled at me as theologically incorrect.
The action-packed ending was fabulous! Angels and demons fighting. I liked the characters, for the most part, and felt each had their own voice and personality. The interesting things the author came up with were really fantastical, and kept you wanting to read more.
It was intriguing, fun, mysterious, adventurous, and thought-provoking. really liking it as a unique speculative fiction read. I went into it determined to take it lightly. Overall, I enjoyed Huntress, book one in the LIFE AFTER series by Julie Hall.
