About the Author

Wm Paul Young was born in Canada but raised by his missionary parents among a stone age tribe in the highlands of what was New Guinea. He suffered great loss as a child and young adult, but now enjoys the 'wastefulness of grace' with his family in the US Pacific Northwest. This is his second book.

Review

The strength of this novel is its ability to face up to the realities and tragedies of life; as a result, it could be a great book to lend a friend who has given up on faith... If you liked The Shack, you will love this book * Christianity Magazine * Ruthless Tony spencer rates success by the amount of real estate properties he owns. Charismatic when in need of information, or anything to augment success, he is ruled by the need to increase and maintain his capital. Divorcing and then remarrying his wife only to fully destroy her- physiologically, financially and legally- his only concern is to maintain the upper hand. Yet, there are moments when he succumbs to alcohol and remembers the faults in his actions, the things he has lost. With a second chance, he either has to make right the things he has done , or give someone a chance at a better life. * Church of England Newspaper * Once again we have an interesting depiction of the Trinity but I was really taken by the breaking down of the 'wilderness of his soul' that the lead character experiences whilst in his coma. Certainly one to spark some lively discussions... * Together * Bunyanesque - bold, imaginative, humane and funny * Church Times on THE SHACK * This book is speaking loud and clear to a lot of people * The Independent on THE SHACK * This book has the potential to do for our generation what John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress did for his. It's that good! * Eugene Peterson on THE SHACK * One of the most faith-enhancing books I have ever read. * Bear Grylls on THE SHACK *
