Crannig Castle - A Review

Welcome back! I hope your week has gone well. Mine has certainly been a busy one. My sister and I started our seasonal jobs at Hobby Lobby this week, so we've had to make an hour and some drive a few days a week. But, we're moving this weekend, so the drive will be cut almost in half! This is a dream come true for us; we call Hobby Lobby our "Happy Place". 

But enough about me and the craziness of life at the Snell house - you're here for a book review! In all the craziness of packing, I almost forgot about this post. Morgan, I humbly apologize for (almost) letting you down :D

Some Background:

  God, please look after Adriel. Keep him safe and keep him from acting foolish. And please help him to be able to find me.

Rae knew she could trust God to look after both of them. It was all she had now.

The Time Captives have been reunited. The rightful king has been freed. Now all that remains is to defeat the strytes who still hold a tyrannical rule over the people of Calhortz. But with their lack of soldiers, it’s a task that is easier said than done. They need allies, but are they worth it when it requires facing ghosts from their pasts?

Returning to his home country only brings the loss of Adriel’s family to the forefront of his mind. His determination to find Rae has never ceased, but now that determination could potentially destroy all that he and the Time Captives have been working towards. And his new-found faith may not be able to withstand the challenge.

Will they be able to set aside their personal struggles for the sake of the freedom of all or will they allow their pasts to consume them? Will they manage to win back Crannig Castle from the rule of the strytes? The fate of Calhortz hangs in the balance.

Crannig Castle is the final book of the Time Captives trilogy, a tale of faith, family, fantasy, and a fight for truth and freedom.

My Thoughts:

I'll be honest - I did not want this series to end. I've grown to love the characters, the story, , and the suspense. There were parts where I cried; there were scenes that made me laugh. The plot line is well written, and the dialogue flows naturally (a big thing for me).

While aimed at late elementary/early middle school ages, Crannig Castle can be read, and enjoyed, by all ages. Look at me! I'm 25, and I sit here wishing there were more stories to come! Go buy it for someone's Christmas present! (Or, maybe even as a gift to yourself....) It's available on Amazon now!

This is shorter than I intended it to be, and I apologize for that. But, as I said earlier, I forgot with all the packing and other moving drama we've had going on the past two weeks. I'll see you guys soon! Maybe even post some pictures of our new house!
