The Quest for Thunder Mountain, written to show the wonder of doing the will of God, is the first book in the new young adult allegory series Tales from Terrestria, a companion series to the Terrestria Chronicles.
My son Justin said the allegories (okay, he didn't use that word, I did) in the book were pretty clear. He as able to tell right away that the book was about "Christian things." The main character, Gavin, and his friends spend spend their time trying to figure out if they should follow the plans of King Emmanuel (God). The book centers around Gavin's quest to push through his fear and uncertainty about the future to discover that the will of God is infallible.
The story and its point are easy to understand, but the vocabulary is not "dumbed down" by any means. Full of knights and dragons, this book by Ed Dunlop is enough to capture the imagination of any boy while teaching him biblical truths.
