George Bryan Polivka writes pirate-type fiction with quite imaginative creatures. The series entitled Trophy Chase Trilogy was published by Harvest House. |

I will probably own all the BotB series one day and make my children read them. However, I don't see myself reading them again. Paul, on the other hand, I love because she is one of the first Christian Fantasy authors I ever read, but not really one of the best writers. So, I love them, and they are favorites, but more on principle than anything else. |
