Priscilla Shirer and Gina Detwiler co-authored this fiction series for children ages 8-12 years old. Xavier and Evan are brothers and used to fighting each other. Now they discover the real battle is in the spiritual realm, and they have been called to fight it using the armor of God.
In The Prince Warriors, Xavier and Evan find themselves in a hidden realm (Ahoratos) where some friends join them, and they learn under the tutelage of Ruwach what it means to be Prince Warriors. He directs them in their first danger-filled adventure and warns them not to take anything from Ahoratos back to their world. Will they defeat the enemy in their first battle with him? What happens when one of them forgets Ruwach’s warning?
Gina Detwiler and Priscilla Shirer, author of several best-selling adult non-fiction books, do an excellent job of capturing the voice of the children in this new series. They tackle the non-fiction topic of spiritual warfare through the use of fantasy fiction to reach their target audience.
More character development than plot development, the series is an easy read for young readers, filled with adventure, choices, consequences of wrong choices, danger, and wisdom gained from experience. Both boys and girls alike will enjoy this series. Loosely based on Ephesians 6:10-18, the series highlights the armor of God and its application in spiritual warfare.
The battle is real and this book is a great encouragement to read about it. The book draws you into the characters and situations that they face and it keeps you reading as they face things that are sometimes scary and sometimes funny. This book is very imaginative, creative, and inspiring. If you are looking for a great chapter book read on the Spiritual war around us and the need for putting on the Armor of God, I recommend this one. We are looking forward to reading more in this series.
We received a copy of this book in exchange for our honest review.
This is a story about 2 brothers, Evan and Xavier and their 2 friends, Breanna and Levi who are sent to a magical land, Aharatos, and given magical boots and belts to help them learn how to watch out for their enemy and fight for truth.
They are whisked away to rescue a prisoner in an evil land and you will have to read this book for yourselves to see if they succeed in their quest.
