Imagine your parents have been lost in utter darkness and only your faith can shine their way home. The Tower of Light series insightfully examines childlike faith from the perspective of three small children, facing insurmountable problems... and succeeding, by faith and grace alone. "This little light of mine" never seemed so bright, and keeping it shining never felt so imperative. Light of Mine, introduces Lauren (12), Aiden (9), and Ethan (5) who bear the responsibility of keeping their Father's newly constructed Tower of Light shining in his absence. From the back cover: Darkness is spreading through Zoura. Beyond the borders of the heathlands, innocent animals are being turned into monsters, and good men into pawns of the Dark One. Father has vanished after joining the Mighty Mercenaries and mother has gone missing in search of him. Alone on the farm, twelve-year-old Lauren and her brave little brothers, Aiden and Ethan, must guard the Tower of Light that will guide both parents home. But when a hooded stranger is caught trespassing the farm, and a new bishop claims the church, confusion pervades their close-knit community. Will the children be able to recognize who is a threat to the Tower and who is there to help them protect it? With little else but the aid of a trio of blessed pets, three mysterious weapons, and their growing faith, Lauren, Aiden, and Ethan find it is up to them to stop the agents of The Dark One from putting out the Light and dooming the heathlands to Darkness. Fans of Little House on the Prairie will feel at home in the series' classic farmstead setting, and the sincerity of the children's love for one another-- nurtured by the example of their parents--will bring a smile to readers and listeners of all ages. Read Light of Mine aloud to your family or confidently give it to your middle grade reader, knowing he or she will be ensconced in a wholesome and riveting experience, beginning to end.
