Drums of Desolation
Chris Heimerdinger
- Reading
- As you read, keep track of the group's preparations and the challenges that complicate them; this can help make a multi-character conflict easier to follow.
- Themes
- Defence and internal conflict: The Nephites prepare Hill Cumorah against external adversaries, while conflict and corruption within their community threaten the preparations. The plot structure sets collective defence against problems within the group, making internal cohesion part of the danger facing the community.
- Worth knowing
- The setup signals an anticipated day of violence and danger. Consider whether a sustained conflict-and-threat storyline would suit the reader at this time.
