About This Book
Reach for this book when your middle schooler is beginning to ask deep questions about the nature of evil, the strength of faith, and what it means to stand up for one's beliefs against overwhelming odds. Shadowmancer is a high-stakes, gothic fantasy that pits three young friends against a power-hungry vicar who has traded his soul for dark magic. While the story is an intense adventure filled with ghosts and monsters, it serves as a powerful allegory for spiritual warfare and moral integrity. Parents should be aware that the atmosphere is intentionally dark and eerie, making it a compelling choice for readers who enjoy spooky tales but want a foundation of traditional morality and justice. It is an excellent bridge for discussing how light can overcome darkness, even when the situation feels hopeless.
