She thought non-Christians would feel they were being preached at. She thought the Christians who read the book early would hate it for not being truly biblical. She said she did have doubts, however, about the books cross-over appeal to both markets. Hall said that she had the most trouble in writing the theological aspects of “Huntress.” She wanted to write a story that would appeal to both Christians and non-Christians.

That is something that many people, especially teens, go through, she said. Audrey must face her doubts about God’s love. “Huntress” is full of action, adventure and romance, Hall said. Audrey makes mistakes along the way, which a person in Heaven would not do.Įach book in the trilogy focuses on Audrey’s interaction with each of the three identities of God in the Trinity: Book One focuses on God the Father Book Two, The Holy Spirit and Book Three, Jesus. God gives her the assignment to go into training to learn how to fight the devil and demons. “Huntress” focuses on Audrey’s death, which is only the beginning of her adventures. “Life After” follows the adventures of Audrey. The series draws upon biblical themes but is not a biblical description of Heaven, Hall told me. Hall, who used to work in youth ministry, said her series is in the young adult fiction category and should appeal to both the Christian and secular markets.
