Here is a link to access the book for free online through Toronto Public Library if you live in Toronto. It is also available on Amazon, Indigo (https://www.chapters.indigo.ca/en-ca/...) and I am sure most library systems should carry it as well.

Hey guys! If anyone needs free access to the book, message me!

heyy, I just started reading it and as a religious studies major, I'm loving it! why did no one tell me about this book before! awesome pick!

Hey guys, how's is the book going so far? Have you been liking it?

Hi Sharon! I liked it.

I really like books about mythology in a modern setting. From the Good Omens mini-series commercials that I've seen floating around, I didn't know that there would be so much focus on other characters. I really liked how there was the freewill and determinism debate; it reminded me Supernatural TV show in that way.

Oh I loveee the show supernatural! It's one of my favourites! I haven't been able to read much of the book yet because school is so hectic but you just motivated me to try and make time for it! If this is anything like supernatural, Im gonna be so excited to discuss this with the rest of the club :)

When would everyone like to have our meeting to discuss the book?

Before reading the book, I think that the book is going to be about something magical because of the title, and I also think it is trying to attempt to promote magical things. I also think that the book uses reverse psychology to promote good things because that will be the right thing to do according to religion. This book reminds me of a text - to - text connection is that the book reminds me of another book about the heroes its a graphic novel that also promotes justice through the use of reverse psychology. There are five magical protectors, going through this adventure, which reminds me of this.
