Shadow Chaser

by Jerel Law Narrated by Kelly Ryan Dolan

Overview

If everything you had was taken from you, could you find the strength - and courage - to live?

*

Many months have passed since part angel siblings Jonah, Eliza, and Jeremiah Stone began their angelic training. As part-angels, or quarterlings , the siblings joined other children of nephilim to begin honing their special powers to use against Abaddon's evil angelic forces.

*

For Jonah, the second term of Angel School seems much more difficult than the first. He and the other quarterlings are gearing up for their mid-term exams, a series of tests that will challenge each part angel in his or her abilities. And on top of that, Jonah can't seem to shake the severe case of pimples that seem to be multiplying on his face by the day.

*

But as Angel School training grows harder, Jonah's battle against Abaddon's forces continues to rage. To make matters worse, a mysterious, shadowy figure finds its way to the Angel School, forcing Jonah to make tough decisions about his life, loved ones, and his relationship with Elohim.

*

As his life comes to resemble a modern-day Job, will Jonah stay faithful to Elohim as he faces his most difficult battle yet?

Gr 5–8—In the tradition of Harry Potter and Percy Jackson, Jerel Law's third installment (Thomas Nelson, 2013) of the adventures of a half-angel/half-human boy is full of monsters, evil creatures, and lots of combat. Jonah Stone and his siblings Eliza and Jeremiah are back at the convent, recovering from their recent battle with the fallen angels and preparing for their next encounter at Angel School, located in the Morgan Library in New York City. The students study spiritual combat, biblical history, and the power of prayer. Everything is going great until Jonah is struck by a horrible case of zits that just won't go away, and his well-intended actions turn into catastrophes. He wonders if his run of bad luck has a deeper meaning and whether his relationship with Elohim will be enough to carry him through. Although listeners can easily navigate most of the narrative, there are some details that seem only to have been dealt with in the first two books, causing minor confusion at points along the way. Occasionally, there are emotional discrepancies between the declarations of the angels and the experiences of the kids. Many fans of preteens turned heroes will eat this book up, with the spiritual crowd finding extra reasons to enjoy it. Kelly Ryan Dolan's narration is appropriate to the story; the male characters are well differentiated, but figuring out which girl is talking is sometimes tricky, unless they are identified by name.—Michaela Schied, Indian River Middle School, Philadelphia, NY
