Fun as always

This book is almost an apology for the so-so predecessor "Warriors of Cumorah". It introduces plenty of that classic Tennis Shoes adventure and awesome characterizations as it explores that crazy time period of the Tower of Babel and the days before that final battle of Captain Moroni. Again, Heimerdinger goes overboard with some hokey plot devices, but it's all so well-written that I was able to forgive him.

Another Great Tennis Shoes Book

The Tower of Thunder is another great book in the Tennis Shoes series. In this book, Mary, Joshua and Becky have ended up in the time of the tower of Babel. They wander upon a woman who is dying and leaves the baby in their care telling them to bring him to Shem.Akish, who had dropped his sword in the previous book, wants his sword back and the sword causes trouble for the group, trying to warp the mind of whomever uses it. Harry and Megan end up in the times of the tower, too. They arrive during a battle and get captured when a spy bird calls out their position. They get accused of being angels sent from heaven by the king who is preparing his armies to wage a war on heaven. We hear nothing about Ryan, Megan, Apollus or the others who were sent through time in this book.I don't want to give out too much about this book so you will just have to read it yourself. If this is your first tennis shoes book, you might want to start with number one or two. This book does require you to know some characters from the older books.
