I loved how unpredictable this book is! I never knew what would happen next. Also, the characters were multidimensional, rather than the extremes of “good guys” and “bad guys.” I wish I could meet each of them in person!

I loved this book!!! Lots of plot twists and turns as five strangers on their own personal quests try to overcome their own particular struggles and work together to save the world they live in. Extremely well written, thought-provoking and very captivating. This is a very hard book to put down!!! It keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting to find out what happens next. I am anxiously waiting for Part 2!!
This is one of the best books I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading! For a first-time author, Janice has gone above and beyond with this compelling read. I highly recommend it!

I absolutely loved reading Paradoxon: Invitation of the Dying Love. The way the characters and story-line were woven together reminded me of single threads in a fine piece of tapestry. For Janice to be a first-time author, I was extremely impressed with how much her writing style reminded me of George MacDonald, one of my favorites. There were definite surprises throughout the journey, and I am eagerly anticipating Part 2 of this very well written piece of literary art.

This book was fantastic! Grabs you right off the bat, fast-paced, surprising twists and turns, well developed characters – like I said, a fantastic book! Can’t wait for the next in the series.

When a book invites you into itself and you find yourself taking each step with every character and looking around every corner with them, it does what it is supposed to do. It hooks you. I’m ready for book two.

…There is so much truth in this book that is incredibly relevant and vital for the times we live in, and I cannot wait to read the second half!
Cheri Foster –
This book is really, REALLY good- I can’t wait to order the next.
It’s like Screwtape Letters meets Pilgrims Progress. Delightful.
Joy Crabtree –
Loved it! The story develops quickly to engage the reader. Then pulls you into the characters – identifying with or distrusting one character then another, only to change your mind back and forth as the story develops. The author keeps you off balance with the twists and revelations of depth of character and plot.
And best of all, before you realize it, you find the characters’ ‘training’ becomes your own.
My only regret – not having already purchased the sequel before finishing the first.

What an amazing story! The characters are so complex and so like us. The hope of something beyond and the change process is so compelling. Unraveling real truths through story this book rivals writings of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R Tolkien.

Gripping. Paradoxon is a modern day Pilgrims Promise that rivals tales like Narnia. Challenging you to see deeper truths. I look forward to gifting this book to many friends.
