Captivating

I sat down to read a chapter, and found myself staying up until the early hours of the morning to finish the story. Compelling characters, thought provoking moral questions, and an action-filled sequence of events all made this book impossible to put down.

Excellent concept, brilliantly executed

I have always been intrigued by the idea of re-historying. But it's a complex job. Several of the rehistories I've read fail because they lack internal consistency. Good efforts, but somehow unsatisfying. The Lion's Way is different. It works! I was completely transported by the story, the characters, and the lessons. The world Marsan and Lloyd have created is palpable. They shed light on what it is to be human and how fragile our elaborate social structures can be under their gritty surfaces. Read this book. You'll be entertained, challenged, and perhaps enlightened.

Couldn't Put It Down

Lion's Way arrived just before Christmas and I took it with me on our hiking trip. Finished it in just three days (we had to hike!) Marsan and Lloyd create an intense journey of one man's search for truth and meaning. And although it is fiction, you travel right along with the characters questioning the way and the truth in your world! enjoy!

uber-mind-bending

from cover to cover i was challenged to throw out everything i believe and start from scratch. intensely riveting and thought provoking. after reading the lion's way, i threw out some of my old beliefs, absorbed a few more and strengthened the rest.

Interesting perspective

This book is a very interesting fiction novel with a richly envisioned world different from our own. While the author takes the time to create a functioning world he allows the reader to use their own imagination to fill in the gaps. While this novel gives an interesting alternate historical view, it also challenges the reader to question their own religious beliefs and really examine what they believe. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good fiction story, as well as anyone who would like to challenge their mind.
