Review of What Child Is This
Colton and his cousin Cyrus work tirelessly at the Morgan Mine. He wishes for a better future for himself and wishes to marry and start a family with his love, Wyola. Wyola works for the cruel judge under harsh and severe conditions, and she appears to have disappeared one day. On the other hand, Randall Morgan, the mine's owner, is concerned about the mine because a young immigrant was recently killed while working on a new north vein in the mine. Morgan remains optimistic about the north vein, which they believe will yield enormous profits. But this discovery may be the beginning of their doom because it has piqued the interest of some evil men who will stop at nothing, even if it means killing everyone at that mine, to get to the fortunes. Who will triumph in this battle between good and evil?
The intensity created as the story progresses is one aspect of the book that sticks out. So much evil lurks among the people, and innocent people are murdered regularly. You can feel the hatred and even fear of the villains through the pages because of how masterfully they are portrayed. Few evil people are capable of causing such chaos and destruction, demonstrating how evil can destroy an entire society if not stopped. As soon as I opened the book, I became completely engrossed in it. The plot developed naturally, and as I learned more, I was able to comprehend the book's title—What Child Is This—as Colton struggled with a multitude of thoughts and struggled to decide what to do. I found it interesting that some of the events I read about at the beginning of the book eventually made sense toward the end, and everything fit together nicely.
I found nothing to dislike about the book. I felt like I was a part of the drama as it unfolded. I shared the characters' sense of hopelessness as they searched for justice and the truth. Anton did such a good job of humanizing the characters that I felt my heart break as some of the people in the story were brutally murdered. I felt sorry for the dear ones of those affected, reflecting on the profound joy that had been shattered. I contemplated whether their loved ones could recover and embrace life anew or if they might succumb to the overwhelming losses and abandon hope altogether. I rate What Child Is This by Kurtis Anton five out of five stars. I found no grammatical errors and believe the book was exceptionally well edited. I suggest this book to readers who enjoy suspenseful, action-packed books.
