The Angel and the Ring — Sigmund Brouwer

In this first book of The Guardian Angel series the story's narrator, Pelagius the angel, introduces us to life in 1364 A.D. and to Brin, a teenage gypsy who is despised by his people because his mother died of the plague and his father was a follower of God.

This powerless teen's future seems hopeless until a hooded stranger presents him with a challenge and also a warning to beware of “the enemy.” Thrown into a dangerous adventure, Brin must choose good over evil in order to find his earthly father's love and his heavenly Father's will. This story will captivate readers ages 9�"12 as they join Brin on his path to discovering what extreme faith is all about.
