This short book is by fellow Goodreads member (and author) Denise Roper. She has produced an extremely well-researched scholarly work that will appeal equally to fans of epic fantasy and those interested in modern religious literary studies. I enjoyed the book very much, and found her arguments compelling. Denise frequently speaks at Fantasy/SciFi gatherings - I hope to have the opportunity to hear her speak in person one day!
