COMMUNITY REVIEWS

final book in trilogy submitted by cdeucher on July 22, 2023, 7:26am This was a great set of books by Lisa Cline-Ransom. Loved each individual boy - Clem and his struggle to fill the gap left by his father's death - and how they each fit together. The author's historical note at the end of each book was also compelling.
