SHADOWBOUND Kingdom Quest Book 5 An Allegory of the Book of Job. He was chosen for his loyalty. Now he'll be tested by betrayal, loss… and silence. A deadly game he never chose to play. Reggie never thought a street magician like him could become a hero. But after catching the eye of the Great King, he rose from orphan to knight-respected, celebrated, and finally seen. Until everything is taken. Far above, in the throne room of Garden City, a bizarre wager has been made. The cunning gorgon Dolos believes humanity is weak and unworthy of the King's devotion. His proposal? Strip Reggie of all the King has given him-his friends, his honor, even his magic man-bag Felix-and Reggie will fall like the rest. Unaware of the cosmic test he's been thrown into, Reggie is cast into a journey of seven impossible trials. He will face lies, loneliness, and the dark voices that whisper he's been abandoned. And through it all, he must answer one question: What remains when everything is taken? For fans of The Book of Job, Narnia, and Percy Jackson, Shadowbound is a powerful teen fantasy about unseen battles, unshakable faith, a mysterious king and the quiet strength of the human heart. Some trials aren't meant to break you… just reveal you.
