Publishers Weekly Says THE BARK OF THE BOG OWL "Takes Biblical Fiction To New Level"

Publishers Weekly says THE BARK OF THE BOG OWL, book one from rising author Jonathan Rogers' kid-friendly Wilderking series:

"Takes biblical fiction to a new level in an imaginative fantasy...Faith fiction readers of all ages should enjoy this first installment in the trilogy."

Inspired by Tolkien and Lewis, THE BARK OF THE BOG OWL is an epic adventure "told with an American accent," the Georgia-born author says.  Desiring to teach his own boys about moral excellence, and encouraged by recent John Eldredge and James Dobson blockbusters, Rogers explains:

"Books like WILD AT HEART and BRINGING UP BOYS remind us that to raise a God-fearing boy is not to domesticate him, but rather to harness and direct his sense of adventure—his God-given wildness.  But parents inspired by these books still face the challenge of finding books that will inspire their boys.  THE BARK OF THE BOG OWL grows out of my desire to write that kind of book."
