Sentinel–City of Destiny
I agreed many, many months ago to do a review of this book. With our move and the new baby, I sadly fell behind on my commitment. This is my attempt at keeping my word. I have never written a book review before but am excited to be able to attempt one now and just in time for Christmas. This book would make a wonderful gift for a family read aloud or for a young boy.
Sentinel: City of Destiny by Landel Bilbrey is an allegory of the Christian life and is geared toward young boys. This book encourages some strong character traits that we would all desire in our growing young men. The book takes you on a quest where you discover keys along the way. These are called the keys to mettle true manhood. These keys are courage, service, vision, and integrity.
Not only does this book cover many character traits and take children on an adventurous journey but it provides many opportunities to stop and discuss with your children the Biblical truths being displayed.
The book includes a glossary of terms, maps for your quest, illustrations, and a study guide for each of the chapters. You can read a few chapters online to see what you think. I am sure you and your sons will enjoy Sentinel-City of Destiny!
