Darkness Calls the Tiger JustRead Blog + Review Tour

Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour for Darkness Calls the Tiger by Janyre Tromp, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

Title: Darkness Calls the Tiger: A Novel of World War II Burma
Author: Janyre Tromp
Publisher: Kregel Publications
Release Date: May 14, 2024
Genre: Christian Historical Fiction

After the attack on Pearl Harbor, Imperial Japan devours the southern portion of Burma, intent on taking over mainland Asia. Unaware of the coming darkness, Kailyn Moran drifts in her role as the only daughter of a widowed missionary.

As whispers of war snake through the Kachin mountains, Kai's father is convinced God will protect the mission. He entrusts the village to her and the kind yet inexperienced new missionary, Ryan McDonough, while he makes routine visits to neighboring villages.

War descends like a tempest upon the mountain peaks, and an unbreakable bond forms between Kailyn and Ryan as they unite to provide solace to both villagers and the flood of refugees. Despite their tireless efforts, a brutal enemy shatters almost everything they love, pushing Kailyn to embark on a path of unrestrained vengeance.

Afraid he's losing the woman he loves, Ryan fights to protect Kai from the deadly consequences of her choices. But in the face of destruction, can he convince her of the power and freedom of forgiveness?

"Evocative and transportive, filled with nuance and spiked with the violence of war, Darkness Calls the Tiger is a story of redemption in the midst of hopelessness." --Tosca Lee, New York Times best-selling author

I really enjoy Christian Historical Fiction Novels. Darkness Calls the Tiger by Jaynre Tromp is the latest in this genre that I have read.

The setting is Burma in WWII. The main characters of the book are Kailyn and Ryan. Kailyn is the daughter of a Missionary living in Burma during this time. She teams up with Ryan to save the Villagers where they are living from the ravages of the War. They have many struggles while trying to help the Villagers, but their Faith in God is strong. They also realize that they are taking a liking to one another. The author does a wonderful job at addressing senstive topics like rape and the atrociousness of the War. I really felt that I was in Burma while reading this story as the author did the research and made the reader really get captivated by the storyline. The book is one of Faith, Trust, Forgiveness and Redemption. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Chrsitian Historical Fiction and WWII stories. FANTASTIC BOOK!
