Have you read any books published by Lamplighter? How many do you own? Which is your favorite? Have you listened to any of their audio books?

Wow that's a lot of them to have read I don't even think we have that many. We have a lot of the lamplighters, and Mom usually reads them to the whole family. We also like listening to the audio drama versions,

I haven't read many of their books, but I've listened to a lot of their audio dramas! My favorite audio drama is probably Teddy's Button :) It is so funny :D and the White Gypsy is really good too. Their later ones are a lot better quality

God's Maiden of Virtue

That, is a lot of books! =) We don't own any Lamplighters ourselves, but we've borrowed from others at times. And I love them! The stories are all so good, and I love seeing the spiritual growth of the main character (s) throughout them.
We also own a bunch of the audio dramas - which are probably my favorite audio dramas to listen to out of "tons" we have. :)

My mom read some of those to us. I probably should have said "I've read/had read to me" or something like that :P

I pulled up their webpage and looked at their list of books while making the list of ones I've read. :P :P

Matthew Minica

Wow, that's a LOT of books! I have some recommendations for the next ones you read… The Hidden Hand, Ishmael, and Self-Raised! :D Then maybe you can sign Nathan's paper. :P

61754db001e2e2ef52b2b9212cdda1ec?s=128&d=mm

Matthew Minica

Haha, well, Nathan asked me once he knew I liked the Hidden Hand, if I considered it to be the best novel I have ever read. I said yes, at least tied for the best with the others I mentioned. So he wrote down my name on a little paper that says "The Hidden Hand is the best novel that I have ever read". (He's trying to get some people he knows to read it.) Then he had me sign my name at Nationals. :P

I'll have to sign it if I make it this next year! :D I just read it maybe a month ago. It is totally the best Lamplighter I've read!!!

61754db001e2e2ef52b2b9212cdda1ec?s=128&d=mm

Matthew Minica

Nathan will be glad to hear that! :D Have you read Ishmael or Self-Raised? They're just as good!! They have the same author as The Hidden Hand as well.

By far my favorite books by Lamplighter Publishing are Tales of the Kingdom, Tales of the Resistance, and Tales of the Restoration!

266cde1033d31d718cd424406e1da504?s=128&d=mm

Rebeka B.

A friend of mine keeps telling me about those books (Ishmael, Self-raised, and The Hidden Hand) she says they really good! I need to read them! I was not able to find them at the library though. :/

Da0c115528ccb8e9cfb5be6d3c31a4da?s=128&d=mm

Bethany Meckle

No, I haven't. They sound good, though. :) I'll have to check if I can borrow them from one of my friends.

@Anyone - which is your favorite drama? I haven't heard the newest three or four, but we have the first - third seasons. My favorite is Sir Knight, but the White Gypsy, Teddy's Button, and Sir Malcom are pretty high up there, too. The bookend story on Teddy's Button is definitely the best! :D

We have one really good library (or should I say librarian) that keeps a nice stock of Christen books! :)

Lucky. :P I would love the library, but I can hardly ever find good, Christian books there. I spend my time in the crocheting or painting section. :D

By far my favorite books by Lamplighter Publishing are _Tales of the Kingdom_, _Tales of the Resistance_, and _Tales of the Restoration_!

Oh, I've read those! LOVE them!!!

Emily H

We don't have all the dramas…my favorite out of the one's we've heard is probably the White Gypsy…I really like Teddy's Button, Sir Malcolm and the Missing Prince, and Charlie's Choice as well though!!

Bethany Meckle

Where have _you_ been?

Lol! Whoops, sorry, I've been getting on to do my review, but, knowing that your presence haunts the forums, I've been avoiding them as much as possible – oh, just kidding!!! I haven't had time to get on to the forums recently. :D Don't worry, I'm still totally committed! I couldn't possibly leave for good while you're still on – I would miss you too much. :P

Da0c115528ccb8e9cfb5be6d3c31a4da?s=128&d=mm

Bethany Meckle

Ah, how sweet. *She was talking about me, not you!*

Lol! You are so nuts… FYI, I probably won't be on the forums much at all for a while, what with being busy with school and stuff. BUT DON'T WORRY!!!!!!!!!!! I'll still be doing Memverse. :) (btw, you should come to the live quizzes.)
