"How does God bring good from tragedy?"
Do you like the TV series "Touched By An Angel" and the
movie "It's a Wonderful Life" or "The Preacher's Wife"?
Then you will like the Angelwalk books starting with
WENDY'S PHOENIX. I enjoyed it, but I feel that it is best
presented as a drama not a romance. Romance is only an
incidental part of the plot. This is a drama with a strong
Christian perspective; so may not be enjoyable to all. The story starts a lot like "Wonderful Life" with flashes
of Wendy's life... her husband's disappearance 10 years
before, her life as a public defender, and her award-
winning efforts to make a difference in the lives of people
she has defended. It introduces the people in her life
and her life long belief in angels... and their belief in
her. There are several conversations between angels.
Using an introspective point of view from Wendy and
personal conversations with her friends for the first part
of the book sets the stage for "the big event". Even the
angels ask God to reconsider allowing this to happen to
Wendy. A car hits Wendy and although it is miraculous that she
survives, she is left paralyzed from the waist down. The
mayor, who had been developing a relationship with Wendy,
is there for her as well as her angels. The soul searching
that had begun in the first part of the book opens the door
for her struggle toward a new life and the changes that
paralysis brings. Cy Korte © Copyright August, 1999
