Daniel’s Den by Brandt Dodson

Daniel’s Den is my first Brandt Dodson book, and I’ve been told by some already that it’s a little different from his norm. Yet, since I haven’t read any of his books yet (sh!!! Don’t tell, but I do have them on my shelf,) I have nothing to compare it to. Having just read my…
