The Guardian: To Run with the Swift by Gerald Lund

If you haven’t read The Guardian Series by Gerald Lund it’s one I am pretty sure you will enjoy!  This books was a fun read!  My husband even listened to the first one on CD and can’t wait to listen to the next one, he likes a good suspenseful and adventurous book to listen to on his way to work .  I really liked the first book in this series, and the second one was just as good!  This book isn’t like anything Gerald Lund has ever written. It’s actually a story that he told to his children when they were little.  How fun is that!?!  My husband tells some of the best stories, and I always tell him he should put them in a book.  Maybe one day he will.

This fast paced, suspenseful novel is a fun read and keeps you wanting to read more (which is bad when you have five kids that need all of your attention).  The great thing about this fun, action packed  book is you can read it as a family.  Which I probably should have done instead of reading it in bed with my head lamp late into the night.

Here is a little summary of the book from Deseret Book…

From the bombed-out ruins of Munich, Germany, in the last days of World War II to a lavish present-day castle in Switzerland, this sequel to The Guardian (published in Fall 2013), weaves a vivid, heart-stopping tale of resilience, resolve, and revenge as Danni McAllister and her family discover the real reason they have been targeted by international terrorists. The astonishing secrets and unexpected powers of the pouch, dating back nearly two hundred years, take center stage in a plot filled with surprising twists and turns as Danni finds herself locked in an extraordinary battle of courage and fortitude that will determine the fate of her family and her role as the Keeper of the Pouch—or risk losing both forever.
