Prince Damon feels like he doesn’t fit into kingdom life, and he wonders what he’s good for. However, after meeting a stranger, his life takes a drastic turn, and he learns that he does have value, though he still struggles with personal feelings and relating to others. Dennis K. Hausker<\/span> tells his story in Kragan<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Damon comes to believe that his future lies outside of his home kingdom of Kragan, but he has to overcome his emotions and feelings of worthlessness. Though he has imperfections, which he is quick to admit, he has good qualities, including wanting to help the poor and needy. Both his problems and good qualities help to shape him as he and his friends train under a stranger. Though they begin as a rag-tag group, they all become close and dedicated to protecting others from an enemy invasion.<\/p>\n

Kragan<\/em> is not short on action, from the training to the actual battles, the book keeps a good pace. Even with several main and supporting characters, I never found the story to be confusing. I think the plot is entertaining, but also shows attitudes that we should work towards. Damon realizes that he has to put himself aside and do what is right, even if it isn’t his preference. At the same time, the book deals with struggles that we all can face: wondering what we’re good for, anger, trouble dealing with others.<\/p>\n

Depending on your tolerance level, there may be some parts that you find objectionable. Several times, women are physically mistreated, and these parts use detailed language. There is a word that is used several times and, while not a mainstream cuss word, is not something everyone wants to see. These won’t bother everybody, but they are there.<\/p>\n

I received a free copy of this book from the author in exchange for my honest review.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
