As a pastor for more than twenty-six
years, I understand the importance of providing good literature for our
families. It is for this reason that I enthusiastically recommend the
Terrestria Chronicles, written by Ed Dunlop.
This seven volume allegorical series
has been a source of great blessing to members of our church. Our
people love these books. My own family has devoured each volume. The character lessons and
biblical principles are obvious, powerful, and invaluable. Our church
families are using the Terrestria Chronicles as a tool for
reading and teaching spiritual principles to their children.
Some of our elementary children and
teens have completed the series and are now reading them for a second
time. Personally, I have never seen books that hold the attention of
readers like the Terrestria Chronicles. Speaking for our church,
I must say that we are grateful that God has provided such a valuable
resource to assist in the spiritual growth of our families.

I recently heard about this series of books called the Terrestria
Chronicles. They are medieval, castle, knight-themed books, so I
thought my oldest son might be interested. He read the whole 7 book
set in 3 days!! My husband, a medical doctor, decided to read one to
see what all the fuss was about and was very impressed and went on
to read the whole series.
So, now, I'm curious. I read the first, then the next, and just
finished the series. I have to say, that these books rank as one of
the top 10 books I've read in all time (and I'm a bibliophile)!!! I
strongly urge you to do what you can to get a set of these....get
some contact paper cause they will get read...in fact...after
today's reading, I'd say, that these books have changed my life. I
want to be just like Prince Josiah as he serves King Emmanuel with
all his heart.
You will NOT be sorry! Other than the Bible, I can't think
of greater books to have your children reading! We
are big fans of Pilgrim's Progress, but our family all agrees that
the Terrestria Chronicles are so much more helpful for building up
our faith and strengthening our walk with the Lord.
This series has set a new standard in our family.
Before buying
a book, I think, "Does this have as much eternal value as the
Terrestria Chronicles?"

awesome! I couldn’t put them down...”Read More
One of my fifth-grade super readers came in this morning and told me
that she had read the entire Terrestria series in just five days.
When I asked how she liked the books, she replied, “They’re awesome!
I couldn’t put them down!”
The kids in our school are all eagerly reading the books and I am
praying that lives will be changed. THANK YOU for making these
available to our families.

We at Lifeway
Baptist Church want to thank you for writing The Sword, the Ring
and the Parchment. Every Wednesday, I use your book for our
story time. Now, when Pastor Tony announces that it is story time,
the children clap and cheer! The other club leaders have also
commented that they can’t wait to hear what will happen next to
Josiah. Thank you for following the Lord’s leading to write the
Terrestria Chronicles. There are 65 first through sixth graders at
Lifeway who are glad you did.

"I ask God every day to help me be like Prince Josiah"
I just wanted
to let you know that I finished all 7 of your Terrestria books. I
LOVED them! I ask God every day "Please help me be more like Prince
Josiah." I liked how those books applied to life.

"These books showed me that I had taken my salvation for granted..."
I have read
all seven books of your Terrestria series and I would have to say
that few books have helped as much as these have! My walk with the
Lord had been a little stagnant and "old" to be honest. Since these
were children's books, I thought that I would read them to my 9 year
old son. He liked fantasy style stuff so I would try to entertain
him a little. By the time we were in chapter 4 or 5 of the first
book, I was choking on my own tears. These books showed me that I
had taken my salvation for granted.
One night as
we finished our reading, my son said, “Dad, I know who the King is,
and I want him to adopt me, too.” He received Jesus as the result of
our reading the Terrestria books together!
