Catherine Mackenzie, Author and Editor, says:
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!
