Here is my praise for The White Lion Chronicles:The White Lion Chronicles is a beautiful series, you will forever be changed after reading them. They are so touching you’ll cry tears of sorrow and joy. Christopher Hopper has profoundly written about the separation from God, sin, and the great sacrifice of what Jesus did for us. This series is so incredibly moving you can’t help, but stand in awe. I highly recommend reading these books.
I had the privilege of personally meeting Christopher Hopper on the West Coast Motiv 8 Fantasy Fiction Tour last year. He is an extremely kind man, who dearly loves his beautiful family, and God, with all his heart. When I heard The Fantasy Fiction Tour was coming to a town near me I was so excited, I actually couldn’t stop talking about it. Two of my favorite authors were going to be there, Wayne Thomas Batson and Christopher Hopper, I had to go. I dragged my family to come along with me (I’m the only one in my house who loves fantasy ) they surprisingly also had a lot of fun, especially my sister. Every one of the authors there were super nice, it was awesome.
