The story was captivating, and the characters were interesting and fun. I absolutely loved the storyline, and the story was quite original. I loved the story, and thought it was brilliant.

The ending ... was just what I wanted it to be." ~ Hayley Guertin, Hayley's Reviews "Everybody loves an underdog story, and I'm no different...but this is the first time I've read one where the underdog was a god. Mr. LeBel's creative genius shines throughout the entire book, and I can only hope that this is the first in a series of Universe Builder novels. I would love to see this made into a movie..." ~ Chris Snead
