Heavy Handed and Simplistic
Analogies are a difficult area in which to write. A balance between the original and its reflection must be achieved if the story is to have the desired result. Sadly, this book failed to achieve that balance and often pounded on a particular point. In addition, the story was simplistic and this weakened it further. The story craft was adequate. I believe that if Ms. Hay studies other Christian anthologies and applies herself to improve her skill in story writing, she could gain the insight and skill that is lacking in this book.

Very interesting storytelling
If you like the book The Giver then you will like this book The Spirit of The King by Amy Hay. I felt the empowerment of Aaria as a young warrior as she goes from dark and evil forces to her acceptance that the King was the one true master of all mankind. I did have trouble visualizing the characters but not their quest for the one true path. Overall a good read.
