Genius idea, poor outcome, Oct 14 2007
By Ethan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Angelwalk (Paperback)
I enjoyed the book. From the very beginning I loved the idea of writing a story in an almost-fallen angel's point of view, and his struggle with doubts, insecurities and his love for his creator.However, I found many of the ideas presented one-sided and basic. Often the characters the author set to oppose his view of right, were young and inexperienced, unable to defend their position as thoroughly as his. He did not do a good job at presenting a case against his beliefs.
I found the description of "the Devil" and the Creator incomplete and elementary. The two most powerful forces in the story were left unfinished. Some might say that such entities could not be described, but I have seen some very good and admirable attempts. An attempt is all I ask for.
Heaven was dull and described far less than it should have been. He focused so much on the pain and iniquity of humans and not enough on the redemption.
All in all it was a good book. I enjoyed reading it, and I connected with the character of Darien as he quested through the world to find answers to his lack of faith.

angel crawl : ), Jan 28 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Angelwalk (Paperback)
with all due respect,roger elwood! first of all, glad christian fiction exists, period. i hope the following is edifying. while an interesting premise, found it to be not doctrinally sound (since the fall angels haven't free will nor choice: ref.-there is a chasm fixed, they long to look into such things, etc.etc.) maybe i totally missed the point, but i felt it hard to read through the heavy handedness. what i mean is this: revealing the sin in a gay bathhouse is no revelation at all, even most gay men would agree that such behavior is reprehensible. to reveal the sin in a relatively stable, normal homosexual relationship..now that would have been subtle-and far more useful. in every instance, i found that subtleties were passed over, underscoring the argument that many use to downplay sin (well, i may be doing so-and-so, but at least i'm not doing *that* !)i felt the book was a vehicle to shout political opinion, and i prefer ideas, especially evangelical ones, to be the kind that enter my mind, then explode into broader meaning the longer i think about them. i felt like you did all the thinking for me. happy to see christian fiction, like i said, i hope this is edifying.

Hard to keep, April 26 2001

I wrote a paper on this book for my English class in a secular college about 8 years ago and my professor immediately asked to borrow it. I still don't have it back. That is okay though, as I am sure she is sharing it with others. I could not put it down once I started reading it. I rank Elwood with Perretti, Bunn, Morris, and Lucado. A different style of writing, perhaps, but none the less spellbinding.
