THE LEGACY is the final installment in The Restoration series from Dan Walsh & Gary Smalley.
THE LEGACY centers on Doug Anderson, the youngest son in the
Anderson Family. Doug’s life as a college student has him making choices that
he knows his parents won’t appreciate. As he tries to balance two different
lifestyles, his parents catch on to the fact that Doug is drifting away from
not only his Christian faith but his family as well. The harder his parents try
to get a read on Doug, the more Doug pushes them away. When things finally come
to a head, Doug pretty much closes the door on his parents and Christina, one
of his best friends. Doug soon learns going it alone isn’t all it’s cracked up
to be. But it takes a tragedy for him to be willing to turn his life around.
I enjoyed THE LEGACY, even though I thought the pacing at
times was slow. I feel a little more depth in Doug’s character would’ve made him more likable. His nonchalant attitude towards his relationship with Courtney
bothered me a bit, and made Doug seem cold and unfeeling. I liked Christina’s
character so I want to go back and read, THE DESIRE, to see if I can learn more
about her background.
Overall, enjoyable. Just not riveting.
