Shadowmancer has great Christian symbolism in it, has very good points and addressed them precisely. It had a lot of symbolism in the book, it had hordes of very detailed imagery.

The way 'Shadowmancer' was written makes it very hard for even the most skilled readers to read.

There was so much Christianity embedded in this story, I was thankful I was a Christian, otherwise I would have put the book down from page 100. There are so many biblical point of views in this book th ...

I found G.P. Taylor's Shadowmancer to be a boring and poorly written example of an attempt to merge Sunday-school-style Christian doctorine with popular fiction.
