The Bell Mountain
stories take place in a fantasy world, but the spiritual principles there are
the same as they are in the real world.
The particular spiritual principle highlighted in the latest two stories
in the series is the desire found among many believers to return to the
paganism from which they were converted.
In this case many of the people in the City of Obann wish to rebuild the
pagan temple which used to be there.
And, as in the previous
books, these are also filled with strange beasts, miracles, and a whole lot
of trekkin’ and trickin’ – some quite serious and some downright silly, the
most outrageous being a weird character who found the golden mask which had
been worn by the super wicked super-powerful Thunder King, who goes around
wearing this mask, impersonating the Thunder King! This is but one example of the mixing of the
serious with the hilarious! These two
books, like the others, are full of surprises and great tales. I highly recommend them as I have the
previous ones.
