"The Shack is the most absorbing work of fiction I've read in many years.  My wife and I laughed, cried and repented of our own lack of faith along the way.  The Shack will leave you craving for the presence of God."  Michael W. Smith, Recording Artist

"This story reads like a prayer - like the best kind of prayer, filled with sweat and wonder and transparency and surpirse.  IF you read one work of fiction this year, let this be it."  Mike Morrell, Zoecarnate.com

"Reading The Shack during a very difficult transition in my life, this story has blown the door wide open to my soul."  Wynonna Judd, Recording Artist

Author William P. Young was born a Canadian and raised among a stone-age tribe by his missionary parents in the highlands of what was New Guinea.  He suffered great loss as a child and young adult, and now enjoys the 'wastefulness of grace' with his family in the Pacific Northwest.
