by Douglas Bond
In this sequel to the Crown & Covenant series, the Faith & Freedom Trilogy chronicles new generations of the M'Kethe family who find freedom in 18th-century America. Adventure is afoot as Old World tyrannies clash with New World's freedoms. Douglas Bond waves together fictional characters with historical figures from Scottish and American History. The M'Kethe clan finds itself in pre-Revolutionary War Connecticut weathering a storm of religious and political upheaval. Ian M'Kethe is forced to make a choice against enormous odds in the face of rising conflict between the Colonists and the French with their Indian allies. Ian makes an unlikely friendship with Watookoog, an Indian, and risks everything but gains something he thought he had lost forever.
"Here comes Douglas Bond-again-to say that those of us who love the truth, are not consigned to live lives of boredom and dullness. In Guns of Thunder, he's got action from beginning to end. I wish I'd had this kind of book to read when I was a kid." -Joel Belz, Founder, World Magazine
"Our 15 year old son read it in one day and enjoyed the action that is in the book. He would suggest all young boys to read it." -David. D.
"I homeschool our three boys, 17,14, and 12. We read the Crown & Covenant series and were very happy to find the Faith & Freedom Trilogy. Great historical facts and real life action, make it very interesting and want to read what will happen next. We recommend this good reading." -Liana C.
