book review Deborah Hale The Wizard's Wardbook review Deborah Hale The Wizard's WardThe Wizard’s Ward by Deborah Hale

… The Wizard’s Ward started off deadly slow and I had to force myself through the first chapter. After that however, the book picked up speed and I really started to get into it. The more I read, the more I liked The Wizard’s Ward. The characters are likable and very real-feeling. Deborah Hale is a master of sexual tension as well, and you can feel the underlying note of it throughout the entire book, goading the reader onward, if only to find out if the guy gets the girl in the end… Read the rest.

The story is fun and interesting and stands up to my wife’s criterion for Christian novels: if the Christian part is removed, it should not be just like any other genre novel. The Restorer is so integrated with Scripture (bot...
