Your Hostess:


Hello there! Thanks for stopping by. I'm your hostess Lady Rachel, and this is the blog of a fourteen-year-old girl, who is striving to become a woman of God. I am a homeschool student, living on our small hobby farm with my 7 siblings, from ranging from ages 18-1yo. Take a look at my life as the 3rd daughter from a large homeschooling family and how God walks with me through it. Blessings!

The Kingdom Series by Chuck Black (Part 2)

Posted in Books

I promised when I finished the series that I would post again, so here! Now, last time I put "WARNING! SPOILERS!" but really they weren't. I just typed up and posted what is on the back of the books. So... this is NOT a "SPOILERS!" post... but I had to wait to get the sixth book, that's why I haven't posted this yet, but I have read it, and here is the post:

Kingdom's Call: Book four in the Kingdom series

"For generations the Noble Knights have been in service to the King. Following a strict code of conduct, they preserve the peace in Chessington, the King's chosen city, and rule it's citizenry. Sir Gavin is a young and promising Noble Knight, devoted to King and Code

"Then a peasant disrupts the tranquility of Chessington, brazenly challenging the Code while -claiming to be the son of the King-- a Prince. When it is learned that he is actively training a force of men in defiance of the law, the stranger is arrested and executed.

"But his Followers continue to defy the Code, and Sir Gavin swears to destroy the threat to Chessington-- until he himself is grievously wounded in battle. As he faces his own death, Gavin is saved by someone who will transform his heart and change his life.

"Journey to Arrethtrae, where His King and His Son implement a bold plan to save their kingdom; where courage, faith, and loyalty stand tall in the face of opposition; where good will not bow to evil-- and one brave man stands against the Dark Knight."
There are discussion questions included in the back of the book.

Kindom's Quest: Book five in the Kingdom series

"Having narrowly escaped death at the hands of the evil Shadow Warriors, Sir Gavin is given a new name by the Prince to signify his new allegiance-- to the cause of the One he swore to kill. Called to share this message to everyone in the land, Sir Gavinaugh takes up his sword and embarks on an epic journey.

"Winning hearts and minds with the power of his words and his skill with the sword, Gavinaugh travels from one end of the kingdom to the other, telling Outdwellers about the Prince, convincing them to join him. And though Gavinaugh is at times beaten, thrown in prinson, or stranded far from home, the Prince Himself guides his words, his sword, and his pilgrimage.

"Journey to Arrethtrae, where His King and His Son implement a bold plan to save their kingdom; where courage, faith, and loyalty stand tall in the face of opposition; where good will not bow to evil-- and the Prince's chosen messanger speaks boldly of His quest."
There are discussion questions included in the back of the book.

Kingdom's Reign: Book six in the Kingdom series

"While the Knights of the Prince train in the Kingdom Across the Sea, the Dark Knight, Lucious, reigns in Arrethtrae with complete authority. But when a small group of loyalists swears allegiance to the King, the Prince returns, and in a mighty battle, Lucious and his Shadow Warriors are vanquished and imprisoned in Wasteland.

"Peace and prosperity renew the land, and the Prince rules from the royal city of Chessington. While the heroic Cedric travels as ambassador, he sees every corner of Arrethtrae reaps the benefits of prosperity brought to the land by the Prince's reign.

"But not everyone will swear allegiance to the King , and it seems this paradise may be lost yet again because of the pride and greed of evil men who plot to free the Dark Knight and his minions. Cedric rides desperately to bring the news before it's too late.

"Journey to Arrethtrae, where His King and His Son implement a bold plan to save their kingdom; where courage, faith, and loyalty stand tall in the face of opposition; where good will not bow to evil--- where the King reigns, and His Son!"
There are discussion questions included in the back of the book.

Ok... so I hope you'll read the books now, they are very interesting, filled with excitement and drama! With a bit of romance included in these great books!

Sincerely,
   Lady Rachel

Now, don't forget to stop over at Rachel's Reasoning to read about me being a Goat-Herding Shepherdess!

I hope you have enjoyed reading the thoughts of a thirteen-year-old girl from the country."You can do all things through CHRIST who strengthens you!" Philippians 4:13
