I live in north west England and particularly enjoy speculative fiction, although am happy to try most well-written books.

From parish churches to cathedrals, from Saxon times through to the Victorians and today, Christian places of worship have been a key part of the physical and spiritual landscape of Great Britain.
In this book the author visits a small selection of those churches and cathedrals, giving us a glimpse of his feelings and the impressions they left on him. The book is grouped into themed chapters and the writing style is light and easy to follow.
You don't need to be a Christian or even a believer in any kind of religion - the author himself is not - to enjoy this book. Anyone who has wandered into a small parish church while hiking around the countryside, or visited one of the impressive cathedrals in UK cities, will probably find something of interest here.
