He believes that is what will save him. Caleb however is convinced that the charm is useless and only God has the power to save them. The second theme is the hard choice the boys face towards the end of the story. They must decide between justice and mercy and their choice could not only impact them, but those around them. | Reviewer: | J:-)mi | Recommendation Scale: | 4 |
