This is the prayer book I give to all new catechumens. I think the language is good, reverent.

It's great. The articles in the back on prayer, especially the Jesus prayer, are quite informative for beginners.

This prayer book "lives up to its own press" , is what I sought and used daily.

As an evangelical convert to the Holy Faith, this small well made volume was my first exposure to the Orthodox Prayer life of the Church. There is great depth and breadth here. I use this small volume weekly thru Lent and Pentecost as well as for each Feast to refresh the Hymnody in my mind and heart before services. Many Canons and Akathysts to ponder as well as the daily prayers & communion prayers. Also my first exposure to an overview of the Liturgy. Άξιος !

I would have given it 4.5 star rating, if it had been available! The Prayer Book has just about everything an Orthodox Christian needs in one place. My only disappointment was that it did not include the Service of Compline.

I am a catechumen, so my opinion is not based from experience. But given how little I know about Orthodoxy, I'm very glad to have found this book specifically. I saw a few different kinds on Amazon, but they didn't include all of the prayers (or Liturgy) found in this book. Of course, my prayer life is especially enhanced. Coming from Protestantism, where prayer was hit and miss and extremely laid back, to have a sense of order to my prayers has greatly improved my prayer life altogether.

I really like this prayer book. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is the wording of the Divine Liturgy doesn't exactly sync up with the wording of the DL at my ROCOR parish. It still says the same things, it just is phrased differently. It would also be nice to have some midday prayers and suchlike.

It's great and complete. If you combine it with the Book of Hours, you can pray most of the hours daily.
