Terminal 9 by Patricia H. RushfordMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I was really pleasantly surprised by this book. I picked it up at my local Christian bookstore and I was expecting your normal all tied up happy ending and resolution. What I got was a gritty mostly gripping mystery with real characters and real questions. Not all of the characters were Christians who had their lives together, nor were the Christian characters having pages long conversations about why their non Christian counterparts needed God, which was a nice change from the evangelical heavy novels I usually read of this type.. In fact this was the middle of the series and I have a suspicion that this book is a bit low on the God factor due to characters and storylines being what they are. That's okay because the references to God didn't feel forced.
And a fun fact is that I thought I recognized the author's name and it turns out I did, I read a series for kids that she wrote and liked it a lot for many of the same reasons that I like this one even if I couldn't articulate it at the time. I am excited to find the rest of the series.
