Lauren Stinton Books

Justice is coming. Welcome to King’s Barrow, where the gifts have lived side by side for hundreds of flamemakers, jewelers, weathermakers, growers, artists, seers, alchemists—and healers, like seventeen-year-old Hamal. He knows he isn’t the best, or even the smartest, healer in the city. He isn’t good with numbers, and he always leaves scars. But evil is afoot in the city of King’s Barrow, and someone needs to make things right. Only one healer in the entire kingdom would think to look for a hero in the king’s prison. “In an era where fantasy writing has become fairly predictable, Lauren Stinton surprises us with what I would call ‘fresh fantasy.’” — Michael Brodeur, Author Destiny Finder

She is fire. "Wow! I did not want it to end." John E. Thomas, The Dreams Guy and president of Streams Ministries "Reading through this manuscript during a time of global upheaval and uncertainty felt like a move of God into an otherwise precarious time." Crystal L. Clark, homeschool mom "It always lifts me up-and in these times that is precious!" Jane Lambert, author of the Five in a Row homeschool curriculum "Love, love, love this book! It has so much beauty in it!" Trinity, happy bride in Texas "This. Is. Beautiful." Kate Perkins, Youth With A Mission DTS leader Radiance was named for fire. As a flamemaker, she has fire in her blood and can create it with her hands. Nothing can burn her, and at 8 years old, she's just as passionate and wild as fire is. All her life, no one has ever understood what it's like to be wild like fire-until she meets a man named Hawk, who can create lightning with his hands. Hawk knows something about Radiance that she doesn't know, something important, and it will send her on an adventure that changes her life forever. Ages 8 and up. Great for hero dads, warrior moms, and children who long for adventure.

Light in Darkness Welcome to King’s Barrow, where the gifts have lived side by side for hundreds of flamemakers, jewelers, weathermakers, growers, artists, seers, alchemists—and healers, like seventeen-year-old Hamal. In book 3 of the Hamal Books, Hamal and his seer friend Cale go underground to rescue the remaining members of an expedition that encountered something in a cave. “As you journey with Hamal, you just might find yourself activated in your own unique gifts and calling. If you have ever wondered about your own purpose or design, do yourself a favor and allow the world that Lauren Stinton has created to unwrap a glimpse of who you are in this world.” — Crystal L. Clark, homeschool mom
