Spirit Fighter

     This book was one given to me for Easter.  The author, Jerel Law, is a pastor of North Carolina.  The book has stories from the bible that make you remember them or want to read them for the first time.  The story is a great one and the background is better than most books.  The end sums up the main story pretty well but leaves room for a next book.  5 of 5

The Throne Of Fire

     This is the second book in the Kane Chronicles.  It has the same story type and Sadie and Carter still trade off the microphone (as usual).  "Riordan combines hard-hitting action scenes, powerful magic, and comic relief with the internal waves of love, jealously, and self-doubt that makes his young heroes so very human."-Booklist.  The book itself shares quiet a bit of Egyptian gods and some history.  I'm glad the author didn't add to much history but he didn't add enough so it makes me want to learn more about Egyptian gods.  It has a few weird twists but definite 5 of 5.
