BEAR KNIGHT

The Lightraiders must face many evils to stop the impending war with the dragons.

Darkness remains even after the five racially diverse cadets stop the dragon invasion. There are more uncertainties than ever with goblins in Keledev and mysterious kidnappings in Tanelethar. Kara must pause her quest to join the Order and travel back to the Dragon Lands to rescue a tortured prisoner. Connor and Lee navigate the danger of Tanelethar to find a lost artifact that could end the war. Drawn in different directions, the cadets face more evil and fear, relying on their faith in the Rescuer to see them through. This sequel to Wolf Soldier (2021) is full of action and adventure, with clear Christian morals, verses, and religious teachings. It captures the hearts, doubts, and questions of believers at all stages of their faiths as well as the process of learning to trust in the Rescuer’s will. Mainly told in the third person, the narrative intersperses first-person accounts from the prisoner, adding mystery and intrigue. An appendix includes name pronunciations, descriptions of locations, and definitions of terms to flesh out the context and background. The author also includes instructions for playing Vanquish, a game the characters enjoy in the story, which readers can try for themselves using a billiards set.

An exciting, fantastical sequel representative of the Christian faith.
