Rescue Mom. Handle The Prophesied Power.
And Don’t Fall in Love.
Sure. No Problem at All.
And Don’t Fall in Love.
Sure. No Problem at All.
Pero Moshe’s mom vanished from their Oregon home, and the prophecy says it will happen to Pero, too. But when it does—and Pero is transported to an older universe, life gets more than a little nuts.
Throw in a bodyguard who is almost criminally cute, a corrupt and brilliant doctor who wants to steal Pero’s power and rule all of Moon City, and her mom showing up as a pawn in the whole thing. And all Pero wants is to grab her mom and go home.
But, uh, yeah, that’s not happening.
In the end, Pero is forced to choose between forgiveness or escaping with those she loves before a shout crumbles Moon City’s walls to pieces. And both choices come at a cost she’s not sure she’s willing to pay.

My Review
The fate of two planets may depend on her...
Over the years I've read a number of Biblical retellings – some more straightforward than others – and I've also enjoyed some pretty good YA fantasy. The King's Feather is, I think, one of the more interesting combinations of the two genres. This first Under His Wings novel blends fantasy in a modern setting with some inspiration from one of the Bible's more intriguing accounts, that of Rahab and the destruction of Jericho.
Amy Earls has a little bit of everything in this rather exciting novel. From hidden identities and family secrets to betrayal and sacrifice. Add in a girl's fledgling faith, a hint of young love, the hope of redemption, and you get a sometimes slightly gritty tale that took me a little bit to get into at first but then found that it was hard to put down.
The King's Feather was an entertaining read that also managed to slip in some moments that begged me to think on faith and a Biblical story that I haven't read in awhile but really should. This is the first Under His Wings book and I can tell you that it has me intrigued enough to be anticipating the next novel in this series from Amy Earls. Seriously, there are things I HAVE to know....
Tell Tale Book Reviews gives The King's Feather by Amy Earls a 4 Bark rating.
