I was gifted Seventh Dimension - The Door, as I am a huge fan of allegory. This book first came out in 2013 and is now part of a vast series.
I grew up on The Chronicles of Narnia, Pilgrim’s Progress, and Hind’s Feet on High Places. These works were the basis of my reader’s identity, creating within me a love for layers of meaning and deeper truths. The Door reminds me of those works, with its artful allegorical tale. The author definitely knows her genre, as I see similarities to other works, but she has taken the examples that have come before and made them her own.

The best part of this work, for me, was the strong, clear, Gospel message! As the main character, Shale, is dealing with many deep issues of anger and abandonment, the way she comes to understand her true worth and belief in the King is written exceptionally. I would highly recommend this for others who have young people dealing with these issues.
I would also recommend this as a fun read during bedtime stories, perhaps a chapter a night. A great way to get younger kids into larger books and series.
