She Walks in Power

Protectors of the Spear, Book 1

By: MaryLu Tyndall

Narrated by: Anna Parker-Naples

Alexia D'Clere didn't ask to be Protector of the Spear, but after her dying mother gave her the tiny metal object and made her promise to keep it safe, she had no choice. Orphaned at age eight, she began to take over the running of her parents' castle with the help of a trusted steward. Yet when a plot to murder her was revealed, a friar whisked her away to live hidden in the forest. There she learned to shoot expertly with a bow and arrow and hone her skills to see into the spirit realm.

Now, at 18, Alexia continues to keep the Spear protected. With her powers of spiritual discernment and her skill as an archer, she is no match for those who come for the spear. That is until she meets Ronar LePeine, one of the King's elite guard.

Ronar desires nothing more than to do his duty to God and King and pay penance for past sins. Yet a forest sprite with flaming red hair blocks his every move, all the while enchanting him like no other. Something evil lurks at Castle Luxley, and both Ronar and Alexia are soon thrust into the middle of a spiritual battle that will not only test their very beliefs but put them both in mortal danger.

Inspirational Faith Based

Loved it! If you're looking for inspirational faith based book, this is the book for you. I wait, anticipating the release of the next book.

The narrator is one of my favorites and does an excellent job.

Good Book!

The author took an interesting approach to the truth of spiritual battles between angels and demons. Though different and maybe a little too literal, I found it to be a very good book. It reminded me of the power of God, and how there are spiritual battles raging. Good book! I would definitely recommend it.

Christian Romance

The book was good and full of scripture, but it was a little too focused on the romance for my taste, and the kissing scenes a bit too heated. Highly recommended if you’re into Christian Romance, not so much if you’re looking for Christian Fantasy

Great read!

Good Christian read with no foul language or inappropriate scenes with characters facing sometimes creepy evil conflict. Female lead is suggestive of Robin Hood.

Review

Really Enjoyable story, plot was good, will be Waiting for the Following books, I'm sure it will be a Great Family Series, mysteries, Love, Narrator was Excellent

She walks in power

This is a very intriguing story. It is well written and the storyline is unpredictable. I couldn't stop listening to it. It reminded me a bit of Tamara Leigh's books which are among my favorite books. I will most definitely listen to the next book.

Christian Thieves ? It Works!

I loved the skills Mary Lu Tyndal uses to weave a Godly plot in with ungodly characters. The use of holy relics in an unholy time is realistic. The portrayal of the heavenly warriors and description of evil are realistic and scriptural. The narrator read 3/4 perfect. The first few chapters were too fast.

A story well told

A very well told story and well narrated. However, there is a bit too much occult and supernatural for the sensitive reader.

highly recommend!

2nd time listening! So good! Exquisitely written book with exceptional narration! I highly recommend this book!

Perfection

Even though I listened to this on audiobook, I’m going to leave a review on Goodreads and BookBub because this book should not go unnoticed. I don’t know which is better, the authors story, or Anna’s narration to this story. Let me just say they were both perfection. This book is Romantic, adventurous, mysterious, stressful, and so much more. As a little girl, I always loved the idea of a knight in shining armor and princesses. I loved medieval history and although if you really think about it, it was probably a really, disgusting, unhygienic time in history. Still, you find yourself rooting for Alexia and Ronar. I loved her spunk and how she always kept him on his toes.

I think the greatest thing about the book is the message of the Gospel, and the fact that you are saved by grace through faith alone. That message could not have been so clearly. It was a sad time in which no one had access to the Scriptures, except the priest, and he could lie and tell the people what he wanted them to hear to benefit him.

This is the first time I’ve listened to anything written by this author, and I cannot wait to listen/read more of her works. This book is wholesome, but I would still recommend readers who are middle school or older to read the books.
