It's a wonderful series. Irene Howat writes with a real warmth and insight. People that you have never met come alive on the page. Christian legends and unsung heroes all become friends you can understand and look up to. In a world where role models of real integrity are few and far between the Lightkeeper's series fills the gap!
Reading this with my 10-year-old son. He loves the stories but more than this we have some great discussions about Christian men from the past, and how God used them. I'm going to buy the rest in the series!
