The last two entries into the Sons of Ares had Fitchner on his heels. In the first, he was driven by love and desperation to save his wife Brynn before her execution at the hands of the Board of Quality Control. Then, in book two, Fitchner went head to head with both of his early allies — Arturius and Quicksilver. His wrath left Arturius dead and set back Quicksilver’s dream of expanding exploration and human habitation to other stars. In Forbidden Song, Ares may not always be in control. But he has a plan — and it’s a doozy.

Why don't we always experience God's goodness? It's mostly because we don't understand how he thinks or what he expects. Many people envision a harsh God who ever seeks to enforce a long list of rules. Others wish for an approving God who swings wide the gates of heaven regardless of how we live. Neither image is accurate.

Equally alarming to me was the evolution I saw in my own children concerning their attitudes about school.
