What an excellent book. It takes you on a journey to differnt places, religions, ideas, thrills, heartache, pretty much what we all must face at some point in our lifetime. If you have ever traveled to another country and are trying to learn a new culture and be open to it, then you can identify with the main character.

Honestly, I was a bit concerned at how religious this book was clearly heading. I am not relgious and feared I was being drawn into another religious story masqueraded as something else. Luckily, I persevered and found myself quite pleasantly proven wrong.

Path to the sun was an exciting read. The characters were very well developed with all their quirks and shortcoming right out there for the reader to see.

And that was the beauty of it; even the characters I didn’t like were fun to read about and multidimensional.

This story was full of action with the characters facing real danger frequently. The author did a good job

The teens know nothing of

I really liked this book! It has adventure and twists and turns, difficult choices that have to be made in order to move forward. They always have to keep finding the strength in one another to get the strength to keep going toward their destination. Its a wonderful journey to take.
