"Very engaging re-telling of the God-story as witnessed by the various gospels. The rhythm and energy of the book is very appealing, and the specific mention of the characters, (eg. Madman, Little Girl, Earthmaker, World Hater, Grand Musician, Miller) give a fresh perspective on gospel."
— Anthony (5 out of 5 stars)
" Fine metaphorical treatment of the story of God. I re-read this often when I need a fresh of breath air in my life. HIGHLY recommended for those who enjoy such things and even for those that don't. Come on... stretch yourself a little :) "
— Photon, 12/14/2013" Beautiful, illuminating - a candle in the darkness. "
— Kat, 10/25/2013" Always a favorite. A unique allegory to the life of Christ--the Singer. Very well written and thought-provoking. "
— Julie, 9/29/2013" Simply beautiful, every word of it. The Singer is the first and certainly the best, but the other two are not useless by any means. Just beautiful, deep and wonderful. Recommended for one and all. "
— Brad, 8/27/2013" yes religious, but i am an atheists and still found the poetry beautiful and the images moving. Wonderfully written story. "
— Lindsey, 8/18/2013" I know I read this, but I don't remember much "
— Paige, 7/19/2013" It's been awhile, but this is a wonderful book "
— Daniels, 1/22/2013" One of my favorites. On the 3rd set of this series "
— Debi, 8/16/2012" Part of my childhood God-indoctrination. And my lifelong love of fantastical stuff. And my junior high appreciation of overwrought poetry. I can't decide if it's really wrong or really fabulous that those three things all go together. "
— Katelyn, 4/24/2012" A touching and thought provoking look at the Gospel and the final victory all told in poetry. A must read! "
— Nicole, 9/27/2011" Still one of (3 of) my favorites! Beautiful poetic revelation of the love of our Savior. "
— Judy, 6/16/2011" If you like C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien AND you love poetry, this is the trilogy for you. It isn't long but the story is fascinating. Miller uses his own voice to tell an inspiring tale. This is a must read if you enjoy poetry. "
— Jeffrey, 6/15/2011" Beautiful poetic allegory of the New Testament! I have read it 3-4 times and never tire of it. "
— Anna, 2/22/2011" love them, they are beautiful and lyrical...i read them over and over and over again...though 'the finale' (revolations) scares the hell out of me, but that's what it's supposed to do... "
— Kate, 2/22/2011" This book is weird. This book is wonderful. This book will make you think. This book will make you feel. "
— Josh, 1/8/2011" This is a Trilogy that is a short read but well worth it. The reviews were correct when they compared Miller to C.S.Lewis. Creative work that was great when it was published and is still great today. "
— John, 11/25/2010" I used to own this beautiful Trilogy and lent it to a friend only to have it never returned. I forgot how much I loved it and would like to read it again one day. A precious picture of God's redeeming love. "
— Jaymie, 9/20/2010" This book is not deep and brilliant poetry. It is very uplifting and pleasant poetry, of a sort. It retells the story of Jesus from a different point of view. I enjoyed reading it. "
— Melissa, 6/22/2010" Some people love the Christ but won't step foot in a church. My only disappointment in this one was the fact that the author is a minister of some sort. Still it is "New Age Christianity" at its best. The gospels in fairy tale form. "
— Charlie, 1/29/2010" I enjoyed this analogy of the great controversy between good and evil, though I don't read much of this sort of book. I think many would enjoy it. "
