I don't really have a favorite part of Sagittarius Rising, preferring instead to enjoy the story in it's entirety. The thing I most enjoyed about the book was the graphic writing which is consistent throughout. It has been said that the goal of every author should be to paint a picture, with words, on the blank canvas of his reader's mind. If that is true, Lewis was the literary Rembrandt of Great War writers. (IMHO)
