SHADOWBOUND____Kingdom Quest Book 5

An Allegory of the Book of Job.

He was chosen for his loyalty.

Now he'll be tested by betrayal, loss... and silence.

A deadly game he never chose to play.

Reggie never thought a street magician like him could become a hero. But after catching the eye of the Great King, he rose from orphan to knight-respected, celebrated, and finally seen.

Until everything is taken.

Far above, in the throne room of Garden City, a bizarre wager has been made. The cunning gorgon Dolos believes humanity is weak and unworthy of the King's devotion. His proposal? Strip Reggie of all the King has given him-his friends, his honor, even his magic man-bag Felix-and Reggie will fall like the rest.

Unaware of the cosmic test he's been thrown into, Reggie is cast into a journey of seven impossible trials. He will face lies, loneliness, and the dark voices that whisper he's been abandoned. And through it all, he must answer one question:

What remains when everything is taken?

For fans of The Book of Job, Narnia, and Percy Jackson, Shadowbound is a powerful teen fantasy about unseen battles, unshakable faith, a mysterious king and the quiet strength of the human heart.

Some trials aren't meant to break you... just reveal you.
