This is a great new novel for those interested in literary fiction. It melds genres of science fiction and mystery into an very interesting tale of three astronauts who find themselves on the planet of Pluto, with everything they need to survive. Interestingly woven into this novel are subtheme, which cause the reader to continuously dig for the deeper meaning of the novel, and there is a deeper meaning! (It reminds me of reading Lord of the Rings in 11th grade, and we had to analyze the book afterwards. I remember one individual commenting that there is no way an author write a book to have all of these different meanings. Now, after reading Tomb of the Devils, I am convinced that authors write in that way. While the book moves slowly during the first three chapters, don't put it down, because once you become hooked, you will be wondering "What is going to happen next". I highly recommend this book, The Tomb of the Devils by Michael D. Christensen, for your reading pleasure
