The Door Within (The Door Within #1)
Aidan Thomas is miserable. Within two weeks, Aidan’s life is completely uprooted as his parents move the family across the country to care for his ailing grandfather. The quiet but imaginative Aidan is struggling with attending a new school and fitting in with a new group of friends. But when he begins having nightmares and eerie events occur around his neighborhood, Aidan finds himself drawn to his grandfather's basement—where he discovers three ancient scrolls and a mysterious invitation to another world.
No longer confined to the realm of his own imagination, Aidan embarks on an adventure where he discovers a long-fought war between good and evil. With the fate of two worlds hanging in the balance, Aidan faces Paragory, the eternal enemy with unfathomable power. Will Aidan be willing to risk everything and trust the unseen hand of the one true King?
I really had high hopes for this book. I kept seeing this book at the library and finally decided to check it out. It is the first of a trilogy. Well, I have to say I was very disappointed in it.

Didn't care for it. Didn't finish it. Started out good with a nice fantasy storyline, but really got to much into christian themes. They were so obvious that it made the story kind of 'hoaky'. Kids may not pick up on it, I however did.
Do not care for this book... I am a Catholic and in school we had to relate this book to our faith. Think of it as an allegory... Replace characters in the book with people in the Bible... I love my faith, but I did not like how we thought of it as an allegory and related to my faith. I think I wouldv'e liked it better if I had read not thinking of it as an allegory...But a bunch of my class liked it... about 19 people hated it and 19 people loved it!
Sometimes, you go to a book sale and you see hardcover books for a dollar. That's pretty exciting, right? So you might go a little crazy.And sometimes, you see a hardcover book in really good shape for a dollar and you mistake it for a different book and you get so excited that you only skim the synopsis and buy it.And sometimes, you're Jewish and you find yourself owning a book dedicated to Jesus. As a general rule, I don't read Christian fiction. In fact, I usually run in the opposite
