Dear Readers

There is usually so little to say once the third book of a series arrives and is read.  You are either reading the series already or if you are not, this review can ruin the whole series for you.  If you haven’t read the Books of the Infinite series by RJ Larson, then stop reading this review and go find book one Prophet and book #2 Judge, read those first.  We will wait for you. 

Ok so now that those readers who haven’t read the series are gone we can talk about this book, King, book number 3 in the series.  I have loved all three of them (not sure which one is my favorite) and really wish I had time to read them again as when I talk to my daughter about them I realize how much I missed the first time through them. 

Ela, Kien, and Pet/Scythe are back and ready to do battle for the Infinite again, even if he requires their lives.  Akabe is determined to rebuild the House of the Infinite so that the people of Syphra will be reminded of his awesome power whenever they see or worship at his house.  The only problem with this plan is Akabe forgot to ask the Infinite if this was his plan for Syphra and his people.  Because he didn’t ask the Infinite now Akabe and his new wife Caitria may have to pay with their lives.

Once again the story line of this book is fast paced, adventuresome, and a good reminder that sometimes God does require things of us that we may not be ready to give.  Ela has gone from a frightened little Prophetess to a confident woman who is ready to do His bidding at any cost.  Her love for the Infinite knows no bounds, but she is still very human and that comes through in the book.  Which is probably why I truly loved this series so much, the characters are so very human, whether they were good or evil, they represented “normal” humanness.  It was a good reminder to me that God will use us no matter how great or small we feel we are. 

Loved this series and am looking forward to the next book or books that RJ writes.

Happy Reading
