#76-Other Worldly Tales #3

Knighthawke-NEW-WEB-ICONKNIGHTHAWKE--VS-NEW-WEB-ICOWe’ve been looking at tales where the setting is an “other worldly” one.  But, what if our main character is “other worldly” and set in our modern day world.  We take a look at such a character today known as “Knighthawke”.  Author Jerry Minchew created Knighthawke as the main character for the book bearing his name and the sequel, Knighthawke: Vanishing Shadows.  Michael is an ordinary young man with ordinary aspirations who is caught in an unbelievable set of events which make him over into an “other-worldly” character.  Take a listen to some samples in today’s podcast!

#75-Other Worldly Tales #2

Cover-AudioOur look into tales of other worlds – even just altered earths – continues today with an in-depth look at The Destined.  This is a tale of evil powers which arise every 700 years or so and threaten earth.  To counter this threat, others are imbued with gifts to fight this evil and set things right again.  This story tells the story of a High School Teacher and a few teens who have been imbued with this power.  The question is, will they know how to use it to save the planet from total annihilation.  It’s a such a fast moving action-adventure-other worldly tale that it’s hard to stop listening.

Loves Great Plan_CoverWe close out our series of Books That Go Together with a look at the latest production in the Warren Family Series, Love’s Great Plan.  In this book, we meet David and Charity’s son, Coty.  He is police officer who shoots a teen in self-defense.  While he is fighting his demons after the shooting, will he allow Amanda help him?  Or push her away? Does Love’s Great Plan include a life together for Coty and Amanda? Or not?

Songs That I Whisper

This week we move from multiple stories about individuals to stories about a family.  In a series of five books, we meet the Warren Family.  The first book I produced for Regina Puckett, Concealed in My Heart, tells the story of the romance between David and Charity Warren.  Songs That I Whisper introduces us to the first of their adult children Suzette and her beau, Seth Black.  We examine and sample both of these books in this podcast.  Next week, we’ll look at the other books in the series.

#69-Books That Go Together #4

lobe & matterLast week, we started looking at a pair of books by Michael Miller.  These books – The Sixth Lobe and Born to Matter – tell the story of Danny Wilson and his unusual ability to read people’s sub-conscious thoughts.  We met Danny as a boy last week.  This week, we see him all grown up and tackling the real world.  I play samples from the second book, Born to Matter.  Join me for a fun ride.

#67 – Books That Go Together #2

Knighthawke-NEW-WEB-ICONKNIGHTHAWKE--VS-NEW-WEB-ICOWe continue looking at books-that-go-together by sampling more from the Knighthawke series.  Remember, books that go together are stories and characters that are so good that they cannot be confined to one novel.  It takes multiples.  The Knighthawke series is just one of the ones I’ve recorded.

Knighthawke tells the story of an American hero, Michael Webber.  In the second book, Knighthawke: Vanishing Shadows, Michael continues his quest for his identity and taking on missions for the Air Force, many involving international intrigue.  Michael continues with his one mission – find his family.

#66 – Books That Go Together #1

Knighthawke-NEW-WEB-ICONWe start a new series today in “Books That Go Together.”  Sometimes a story is so good that it cannot be told in just one novel.  It must spread across to a second, maybe a third, maybe more.  Think of the Lord of the Rings series, for example.  I have recorded several books which fall into this category.

Today I focus on a book which covers the life of an extraordinary young man named Michael.  Since this covers his life, it had all the elements you might want to see in a book – mystery, adventure, romance, and even some science fiction.  And that is just in book one.  Listen for some samples of a wonderful read.

#65-Thinking of Clerical Crime

Non-Prophet Murders cover

This week’s podcast requires some thinking. Some books just set you thinking; even if they are murder mysteries.  In this case though, I’m not thinking about how the crimes might have been better executed.  I ask some questions of Christians about the reputation of the Church – the Bride of Christ.  All of this is stimulated by re-examining Becky Wooley’s book, Non-Prophet Murders.  Join me and let me know what you think with some feedback!  I’d love to hear from you!
