Andrew Peterson's YA fantasy novel, "On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness," hit the bookstores this month.
After checking out all the buzz on this book, I'm really beginning to regret not requesting an advanced copy!
After perusing the authors website, and reading several book reviews, I've gotten a sense that Andrew Peterson has a fun, rambunctious sense of humor. Just take some of these names of creatures in the book:
Cave blats, fangs, horned hounds, quill diggles, thwaps, and the unforgettable...toothy cows...
I think Monty Python could use some of those characters.
But besides the humor, reviewers are raving about the authors writing skill, and excellent plotting. And the praise isn't limited to those within the Christian circle, check out Fantasy Book Critic.
Andrew Peterson's website is another great place to look around

Brandon,
You should definitely pick up a copy if you have the time. And thanks for the non-Christian based link to Fantasy Book Critic! Very cool...

Odd that the editors would have left the double dark in the title, but maybe that's part of the "fun" element.
Hi Christopher,
Now with your reccomendation to boot, that's even more reason.
Hello, bob,
I definitely think the book title toys with the scary elements by highlighting the word darkness, all while giving a glimpse of the author's quirky sense of humor.
