"For the King " Such is the battle cry of the royal army as soldiers in the service of the King of kings and Lord of lords set out to wage war against the forces of evil. Lanus, a new recruit, finds he has much to learn - about obedience, about failure, about victory. And about the vital importance of putting on the full armor of the King. In this fascinating tale of spiritual warfare, the story of Lanus vividly illustrates the Christian's conflict with Satan. Come along as a new convert trains for conquest by skillfully wielding the ultimate weapon of righteousness, the Sword of the Word of God...
The book The Shining Sword never gets old. Its combination of good characters, exciting plot, and griping action make it a simply good book. But the aplication for the Christian life is amazing and cannot be forgoten. The book is and has been a help in many times of need. Based soley on the Bible and strong Christian teaching, the book can help Christians walk after God, and non-believers find the King who loves them so. It explains Jesus and the powers of evil beautifuly and easy to understand. Yes, so may say its a kids book, and it might be aimed for them in writing style, but, much like the Chronicals of Narnia, it is very aplicaple for the adult Christian.

Tightly written allegory with enough adventure to keep even junior high boys interested, yet enough detail and imagery for adults. The book was absorbing and challenging; delightful to read without talking down to the reader! I'm planning on using it to teach my 7-9 graders how to analyze, interpret, etc.
