The Crown and Covenant series by Douglas Bond is a set of historical novels that transport readers to 16th and 17th century Scotland and England, a time of great political and religious upheaval. The series, which includes titles such as "Mr. Pipes Comes to America," "The Betrayal," "The Resistance," and "The Sword," offers a unique blend of action, adventure, and spiritual exploration. At the heart of the series is the struggle between the crown and the covenant, or the conflict between those who seek to impose their will through political power and those who seek to live according to their faith and conscience. The main characters are young people who find themselves caught up in this struggle, and who must make difficult choices about where their loyalties lie. Bond's writing is rich in historical detail, bringing to life the sights, sounds, and smells of the time period. He also deftly weaves in theological themes, exploring the nature of faith, obedience, and sacrifice. The series is not only a thrilling adventure, but also a thought-provoking exploration of what it means to live out one's faith in a world that is often hostile to it. The Crown and Covenant series is suitable for both young adults and adults, and is a great choice for those who enjoy historical fiction, adventure stories, or spiritual reflection. The series is also a valuable resource for those seeking to understand the historical and theological roots of the Reformed tradition. Overall, the Crown and Covenant series is a compelling and thought-provoking read that will leave readers reflecting on the nature of faith, obedience, and sacrifice long after they have turned the final page.
