Interpretation Toward Books Shadow Over Kiriath (Legends of the Guardian-King #3)
After months of conflict and opposition, Abramm Kalladorne has finally stepped into his destiny as king of Kiriath--only to find himself facing more problems than ever. The Mataio remains antagonistic, the failed rebellion's supporters have slipped through his grasp to plot anew, bad luck plagues his every attempt to build Kiriath's defenses...and that's just the beginning. As the forces of the Black Moon advance toward Kiriathan shores, Abramm agrees to a desperately needed alliance-by-marriage with neighboring Chesedh. But with the hour for his union approaching, he is horrified to discover that he has become dangerously attracted to his fiancée's younger sister, the headstrong Lady Madeleine. Even worse, he learns that his attraction is reciprocated--just the sort of situation his enemies can use to destroy everything he's trying to accomplish. And Eidon just might let them succeed. Treachery and faithfulness, guilt and forgiveness, the joy of desires fulfilled and the pain of tragic loss all weave the tapestry of one man's destiny realized--where mind-boggling blessings come wrapped in a mantle of suffering that will test Abramm's faith to the limit and challenge everything he thinks he knows about himself and the one who owns his soul.Itemize Books To Shadow Over Kiriath (Legends of the Guardian-King #3)

Two books in one!Just when I thought things would go well for Abramm, another story jumped from the pages and heartache replaced joy. I can't even fathom what will happen next! A must read.This book was as intriguing as the ones before it, and, if it is possible, I enjoyed it more. The plot and the characters are real and I felt as though I was truly there. This book is a must read in the Christian allegory section, but I do not recommend allowing anyone under fifteen to read it, due to the content of the book. It is rated adult, and it does have some content that would be inappropriate for anyone under that. Apart from that, the book is highly commendable.
The continuing story of Abramm as he starts to rule his kingdom, under goes his coronation, deals with the Esurhite invasion and faces his upcoming arranged marriage. I've struggled with this series for awhile, at moments I really enjoy it, (like most of this book) and then Ms. Hancock made a bad decision. I understand the reason for the extreme suffering for the main characters, however, that should have been the next book not the end of this book. This book should have ended on page 402 (just
Great series
WOW! What an emotional ride! Full of romance, shocking twists, action, and, most importantly, lessons of living for "Eidon," even in the midst of great trials. When I got to a certain potential "happy ending", I was scared to move on. Finally, I did. I don't want to spoil it, but I will say this: Abramm's struggles with his feelings for Maddie, with the Mattio, and with the Armies of the Black Moon... were just the beginning. Yet Abramm and his friends will have to trust in Eidon in their
This book, by far, was my favorite of the entire series. I often find that I adore books that emotionally devastate me, and friends, that is exactly what happened in this case. SPOILER ALERT! DO NOT CONTINUE READING UNLESS YOU WISH TO RUIN YOUR LIFE! In this book we follow King Abramm of Kiriath as he navigates growing dangers starting to boil behind the scenes and we also follow Lady Madeleine as she struggles with a strong love that is not reciprocated, all along both of our protagonists are
Move over Edward, you have been replaced by Abramm Kalladorne. I didn't think Christian fiction would have the courage to be this seductive, but it did. But unlike the obsessive love between Bella and Edward, we see the grown up power of love and attraction and its pull even when it is forbidden. If you are looking for a Christian alternative to Twilight, this is it. Like Twilight, it is clean but still powerful, proving once again you don't need graphic details to be sexy.As with the other two
