Amrach and the Paraclete is a fantasy novel in the style of many that are currently flooding the market for the pre-teens. It is an allegory showing the relationship between God and his people, and is an exciting read which owes a great deal to C.S. Lewis's Narnia stories, e.g. the Lion = Jesus = Aslan.
Biblical truth which gives a clear understanding of the work of the Holy Spirit, and God's constant enabling in our journey through life, is woven together with the really great ingredients of fantasy writing. It can be clearly seen as an antidote to the amoral and pagan ideas often found in this modern book genre.
