Description
Chosen to save a people. Called to serve an enemy. Plunged again into the gray world of Lyric and Hazor, Susan and Mark search frantically for their teenage son, Jake, as all signs hint that a trusted ally has betrayed them. Assassins, political intrigue, false leads, and near misses beset their path, which will lead them into the dark prisons of Hazor before the One's purpose is revealed. Cast out by those he trusts and preferring to cross swords with the One rather than yield to His show more will, Kieran flees to enemy Hazor, only to find that the One knows no borders. Pursued by his calling, Kieran finds a boy without a home, a king with burning questions, and a nation torn by darkness. As he embraces the tasks the One has set before him, this new Restorer learns that the One requires his all—perhaps even his life. show lessTags

The Restorer's Son>, by Sharon Hinck, is the 2nd novel in the Sword of Lyric Series.
Picking up where "The Restorer" left off, Susan and Mark travel back to Lyric to find their missing son who stumbled upon the gateway. Jake soon meets up with Kieran, the new Restorer, and learns about the strange new world. But Kieran is more than reluctant to be the new Restorer. He has struggled with his faith in the One for years. How can he fulfill his duty, when wrestles with his own convictions?
Told from a back-and-forth first person narrative between Kieran and Susan, it’s a successful storytelling device. Until further in the story, when Susan and Kieran are traveling together, it becomes slightly confusing trying to remember which one is show more speaking. But this novel was even more exciting and powerful than the first. Kieran’s struggles are realistic and moving. And I was definitely glad that this book focused more on him, as I could tell from the first installment that Kieran was an interesting character.
A powerful blend of Christian faith and fantasy, Hinck has created a fantastic world of swashbuckling heroes and political intrigue. The characters have depth and there always seems to be another story to be told. The adventures continue in Book 3, The Restorer’s Journey, available now. show less

Another riveting read, deeply spiritual with engaging characters. Looking forward to reading the next instalment.
I love this book! It is so amazing. The story is so unique and original, unlike anything I have ever read. What I love about these books, is the way she portrays the importance and power of Scripture. That is just *so* cool to me. Definitely definitely check these out! You won't regret it!
