Here Lyeth

Book 3- Lifeline Fantasy Novel

In Here Lyeth, a boy named Meginhardt is killed and ends up in a fictious representation of Heaven. He is resistant, though. He does not want to accept his death and wants to return to Earth to mend his relationship with his father. Additionally, he finds out that a teenage girl, Lexxie, is destined to carry out his father’s line of descendants. Meginhardt is enraged by this and becomes committed to her destruction.

Lexxie finds out that the man who has raised her is not her biological father. Feeling betrayed, she is determined to find her biological father. She goes on a journey to a neighboring town, but her questions and research lead her to people accusing her of being a witch. (This novel takes place in the 1600s).

This was an interesting fantasy novel. The town Lexxie visits is super creepy and the way they deal with witches is just as awful as the Salem Witch trials. The novel plays on this idea of superstition versus faith, and using innocent people as scapegoats. My only letdown in this novel is the author introduces a young man, Jonne, the local mailman, who gives Lexxie a ride to this town. There is a possibility of a growing romance between the two of them, but he is not in the novel very much, so the reader does not get to see this subplot develop very much, which was disappointing. Overall, though, it is a unique fantasy that deals with faith and the afterlife in a thought-provoking way.

Rating: 4/5
