This is a dramatic autobiography! The cover declares that the author’s life is ‘as complex as one of his novels’ and ‘as unpredictable as the plot of Shadowmancer’.
Well, I hadn’t read any of his novels and so wasn’t very sure what to expect, but found it all the more compelling for being a true story! The book is a record of God’s hand in the author’s life and the message of God’s grace is clear from beginning to end. The author does not try to cover up or excuse his mistakes, faults and follies, or try to convey that he has ever been some sort of hero. He writes with honesty, humour and a touching sincerity.
