Book Review: Sir Quinlan and the Swords of Valor, Knights of Arrethtrae, Book 5

from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group

Looking for a good book? I would recommend Sir Quinlan and the Swords of Valor, Knights of Arrethtrae Book 5 by Chuck Black. I read this book and then let my 11 yo son read it. Without giving away too much, this book has just enough 'drama' (decisions must be made) as well as action (there are sword fights) and thankfully no romance! There are a few twists in this book but it generally is easy to follow with not too many characters. I believe these books were written for teens and I would personally recommend this one to teens that are looking for this genre. Something I really liked in this book were the two instances of looks-can-be-deceiving.

There is a definite purpose to this book, however, that I should let you know about (if you don't already know about Chuck Black's books). The main purpose is to show our need for Jesus Christ as our Savior and the job we have when we decide to follow Him. Or what our lot will be if we do not choose to follow Him. At the back of the book there are study questions with answers for if you would like to use the book in a group, or just for your own personal study. 

Overall, this is a good book and my ds wants the rest of them now! A nice thing about this series is that even though it is part of the series, it is a stand-alone book. Black gives a brief history at the start of the book for those who haven't read the previous books. 

This book can be purchased for $9.99 through WaterBrook Multnomah, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other book sellers in print format or ebook (prices may vary).

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.
