Review
What a wonderful find! A great historical series for the entire family full of warmth, adventure, suspense, and above all, a reminder of what can happen when we put our trust in God.
-Bill Myers, author of the Wally McDoogle and Forbidden Doors series
I could almost taste the salt spray as Raiders from the Sea swept me away to another place and another time. This is historical fiction at its best: gripping, well-researched, spiritually solid, and with equal appeal to boys and girls. I can't wait to read the next one!
-Robet Elmer, Author of the Young Underground and Promise of Zion series
Page-turning adventure on the high seas! Both entertaining and educational, Raiders from the Sea is a compelling read. Not to be missed!
-Beverly Lewis, Author of the Girls Only and SummerHill Secrets series
