The backdrop of REBEL GLORY is the world of junior hockey in Canada. Craig plays for the Red Deer Rebels. If he can help take them to the playoffs, his chances of making his way into the NHL would be almost guaranteed. Craig's entire focus is hockey, and when the team's performance begins to slip, he worries that his dreams will amount to nothing. The Red Deer Rebels are suddenly plagued by bad luck. One player finds his hockey gear infested with cockroaches, a game on the road is jeopardized by not one, but two flat tires, and team uniforms are mistakenly washed with fiberglass insulation, causing itchy rashes that distract the players during the game. Craig begins to realize that many other incidents seem to be pointing to some sort of team sabotage. Sigmund Brouwer provides an inside view of junior hockey and one player's determination to save not just his own career, but his entire team's reputation. REBEL GLORY is written in a fast-paced style and at a comfortable reading level that will attract even the most reluctant readers. Reviewed by: Sally Kruger, aka "Readingjunky"

I am 12 years old and really liked this book! I already ordered the other sequels. Rebel Glory was funny in some parts and there were mysteries to figure out, too. At first, I didn't want to read it, but now I'm thirsty for more! Sigmund Brouwer, you're the best!

Im not a big reader but my wife brought home rebel glory for my son wesley who is 10 and plays roller hockey. Well I picked it up and started reading it and couldn't put it down. Since then we have the hole series and we are sharing them with Wesleys team mates to introduce them to Sigmund Brower. Thanks for good clean books that chidren can read, as well as us big kids.
