Wow, I did kind of see the ending happening, but there are some things I didn't see coming. The twist of Lucifer falling in love was not expected. This did remind me mildly of the account of Job though. I did have to read this knowing there would be things that I did not agree with religously speaking. l did not agree with the gender of God. Nor with Satan inventing love, God himself is love. Satan did however corrupt love by his pride. I did appreciate the author showing God knowing all along what would happen. As a fictional story, it's very well written, I love the ending, I love that forgiveness is key. I did 100% agree with the depiction of Lucifer/Satan. Pride was without a doubt his downfall. So, for any Christians out there picking up the Fallen series, just remember it is all fiction.
