Both George and his younger brother Erik are testing to see if they can enter the school. The story begins with the annual tryout’s day. But I am getting ahead of the story a bit. After that he can work towards becoming a knight. But in order to become a knight he must first win entrance into knights’ school and make his way through the 6 levels of training to become a squire.

This is the story of George Pennington, a young man whose greatest desire is to become a knight. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.” In all circumstances, hold faith as a shield, to quench all the flaming arrows of the evil one. So, stand fast with your loins girded in truth, clothed with righteousness as a breastplate, and your feet shod in readiness for the gospel of peace. “Therefore, put on the armor of God, that you may be able to resist on the evil day and, having done everything, to hold your ground. This series is going be be based on the armor of God, I was impressed by Linden as an author, but in the new series she is both author and illustrator. This is her first book for younger readers, and it is just as good. They have strong Christian themes and usually have Catholic main characters. Her Young Adult novels that have the strength and appeal that I believe any adult would enjoy reading them. I have compared her writings to Madeleine L’Engle and Lois Lowry, and firmly stand by that comparison. Theresa Linden is one of my favourite contemporary authors. This is her first book for younger readers, and it is excellent. There are some amazing reads for young adults, and adults. In under two years I have read books by Theresa Linden twenty-two times.
