Isn't that cool!?
Okay, so, yes, I am a huge fan. (If you didn't already know.)
Brothers at Arms: Treasure and Treachery in the Amazon (Book 1)
"Long ago, these hills were Inca land." She slowly swept her right hand over the hills behind us. "All authority lay in the ruler, the Inca. They said he was divine. All gold belonged to him."
She looked toward the coast, a dim blue mist on the horizon. "The Spaniards came. They wanted gold. They got gold. But not all the gold."
Lawrence and Chester Stoning are twins, but like Jacob and Esau of old they have little else in common. Lawrence is a realist, fascinated by the study of science, mathematics, and history, while Chester longs for the knightly adventures of chivalrous times past - hard-fought battles, gold-filled caves, damsels in distress.
When Chester's impetuosity engages the unlikely pair as bodyguards to a Spaniard and his beautiful ward Pacarina, the twins quickly realize that the 19th century calls for a chivalry of its own. Protecting Pacarina's secret leads all of them into the steaming jungles and dizzying mountains of Peru, a foreboding territory made all the more dangerous by Lawrence and Chester's strivings against each other.
Can the twins learn to trust God and work together before it's too late? Or will they fall prey to the mysterious schemes of Pacarina's enemy - an enemy they know nothing about?

The Boy Colonel: A Soldier Without a Name (Book 2)
"Edmund, do you understand, this is not what I want! I was born for war, I have lived my life in war, and I will very likely die in war. But," his voice lifted in the clear air, passion swelling his tones, "I do not intend it to be this war!"
The year is 1836. A mysterious young English colonel commands a crack regiment in the snowy wastes of Siberia. No one knows his history. No one knows his name. The Cossacks want him dead - but are they the only ones? It seems his worst enemy may wear an English uniform.
The Boy Colonel strives to perform his duty, but when that duty becomes mixed he must decided which sovereign is greater - the king of England, or the God of the Bible. Treachery, intimidation, and deceit block his path. His choice of allegiance may mean the difference between life and death. Is he prepared to risk all to protect his loved ones?
Buy The Boy Colonel.
Secret of the Lost Settlement: The Duty of Warriors (Book 3)
"Noble, leave me!" Edmund said.
"We stick - 'til death."
"No! Find the Miriam. It's my only chance."
Edmund's fingers went slack.
Colonel Nobody (The Boy Colonel) and the Stoning twins (Brothers at Arms) are back!
Outlawed for a crime he did not commit, the "Boy Colonel" must seek pardon by finding witnesses to his supposed crime in the whaling fleet off Greenland's coast. But his plans go awry when his search amidst the fjords and shifting ice-mountains leads him into a hidden valley peopled by descendants of a Roman expedition lost during Nero's reign.
When twins Lawrence and Chester Stoning arrive with news of Queen Victoria's ultimatum, Colonel Nobody must decide whether to stay and protect the colony's persecuted Christians or venture to escape with the proof needed to save his best friend from hanging. Or will he survive the settlement's horrors long enough to do either?
Buy Secret of the Lost Settlement.
AND, because of the awesome news of release on Kindle, I've decided now is the perfect time to re-review probably the whole series - and if not, #1 and #3 for sure. (Those are the ones I most recently reread.) So, be on the lookout for that! :)
Learn more about the author of the series, what he writes (and doesn't), and view exclusive concept art at John's website, johnjhornbooks.com.
And don't forget to pick up Brothers at Arms while it's FREE!
Happy reading,
