Reviewer:  Forrest W. Schultz

     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.
