Darryl Nyznyk

The author takes you into the lives of the characters and you find your self on a wonderful journey back to the first Christmas. A delightful reminder of a message which is often lost in today's busy world.

3.5 stars. I quite enjoyed Mary's Son by Darryl Nyznyk. It had a bit of a Miracle on 34th Street feel to it, although the plot line was very different. Also a Christian tone, but lightly done. Plus some time travel! Ok, that part was a bit over the top (it is a "fantasy"), but I enjoyed it. Very very light - I suspect I might have rated it lower on a different day / mood.

A story about the true meaning of Christmas, with a character who plays a very similar role to Mary Poppins (not the Mary of the title) and who has just as many 'magical tricks', and who, in the nature of this tale -- is the instrument of God's miracles, as well.
