Acting out because of his grief at the loss of his grandfather had sent Adam to Juvenile boot camp. Protecting the inmates from the brutal guards taught him leadership, loyalty, and friendship. Adam and his friends escape boot camp, but find themselves transported to Heaven, which they find under siege. They must learn the skills of a warrior before they enter the portal that will take them to the alien stronghold. There, they must steal back the only weapon that stands a chance of stopping the invasion; the Staff of Moses. If they fail, Heaven will fall and leave the way open for an invasion of earth and the eradication of mankind.

My Review

'For Heaven's Sake', by David Wickenden is a phenomenal book, unlike any other I've read before. Other works of the author are mostly in mystery, suspense, thriller genres, but this is quite a unique one, and I must say, certainly well-written. 

One of the most pivotal point about this book is that it unfolds in different POV's. That makes the novel even more interesting. 

The characters are all brave when time asks for it as well. Adam, the main character, is a 'born leader' in the literal sense. He goes on to lead his people and be with them when time's rough.

'For Heaven's Sake' is a easy read, and very refreshing from most of the books. It takes place in 'heaven', which is gripping. 

The title, as well, is to be taken literally, as everything in the story is for heaven's sake!

Another key point of this book, is that the gods of different religions, tribes, countries, are all in the story together, fighting and rooting for each other. 

All in all, 'For Heaven's Sake' is fantastic read, and I recommend it to everyone who loves a sort of 'off the earth' writing ;)

3.5/5 Stars 

Great if you enjoy: fantasies

Not great if you’re looking for: complex reads
