Blessings of the Firebird's Light
Hey, I'm looking for recommendations on good Christian Fantasy books. I've read the Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis and I finished Blessings of the Firebird's Light by Rose S. King. Blessings was really good. I'd never seen a fiction book which weaved spirituality and fantasy the way Rose did. I also enjoyed seeing PoC as main characters.
But, now I'm looking for something new to read. Does anyone know of other Christian fantasy books that are good and current? Thanks!

I would recommend The Hobbit wholeheartedly. Yes it's not as blatantly Christian as the Narnia books (which I just finished reading), but it was written by a Christian man and I'd say the themes and morals of the story and characters are Christian.
Also if you want a good Christian fantasy novel, what better place to start than at the very beginning, with the world's first ever novel and fantasy novel The Pilgrims Progress!
I read it in old English recently. But a more modern English version is available for free as well on Kindle. I'd avoid part two though, it was a bit bleh imo.
Other than that, maybe the LotR's, but I haven't read them yet and so cannot vouch for them.

If you're into deep stuff, I'd recommend George Macdonald's fantasy novels. His stories inspired C.S Lewis to write Narnia! They are great if you need some food for thought.
Lord of the Rings!! Also Castaway Kid by Rob Mitchell is a favorite.;)
