6 Authors and Works that Uphold Traditional Christian Values

I love audiobooks, but recently, I have run into a big problem! Adult books are absolute TRASH on so many levels from being horrible in language to sexually suggestive or having slow-moving plots. I have decided that most fiction that is written for adult audiences is totally not written with Christain values in mind.

Now, this is not to suggest that you shouldn't introduce controversial topics in books at all, just that I appreciate it when an author writes about mental health with dignity. I also enjoy an author that carefully cuts out the cuss words. And for the love of all, keep sex in its place, not on the pages. When it came to things like Ender's Game, the story is good, but there is entirely too much cussing in it for my liking.

Getting into it, this is my list of tried and true beloved Authors or stand-alone works that do uphold good Christain values.

1) Brandon Mull:
A Latter-Day Saint Author from Utah that writes Juvenal and Young Adult Fiction. His most popular work is the five-book Fablehaven series. The first book he published was the Candy Shop War through Deseret Book. His newest series Dragonwatch is a continuation of the best selling Fablehaven series. Beyonders is a Young Adult fiction series that follows a land with royalty and mythical creatures as well as some pretty interesting choices of villains. Five Kingdoms is another of his teen fiction series.

Brandon's hit series Fablehaven follows two kids Kendra and Seth into a stay with their grandparents who live on a preserve for magical creatures. Each book has a different preserve that they visit together in it. From magical items and battles to save Fablehaven, Kendra and Seth discover special powers such as being able to see in the dark, recharge magical objects or repel magical fear. Dragonwatch focuses on the dragon sanctuaries within the Knights of Dawn as well as introduces some more of the cousins as new characters.

2) Richard Paul Evens: Michel Vey Serries
He is most commonly known for the Michel Vey series about a group of kids who were all in an experiment involving electricity. Michel and the kids each gained a unique electric superpower as a result of the experiments. I have to say that as a dyslexic reader, I rarely read a full book in the span of a few days, but, I read the first book in just a few days and I was hungry for each release that followed. Now the full seven-book series is out. Michel is chasing down Hatch, the villain of the series who is out to kidnap and control every electric kid in the world and then use them as his own personal weapons. He first finds out that other kids have electric powers when he meets Taylor, a cheerleader at his high school who can reboot someone's brain. I really love most of all that the series is written in first person from Michel's perspective.

3) Heroes of Olympus
It's funny but I actualy like this serries better than Percy Jackson. A giant michanical dragon might have something to do with my opinion on this one though. Camp Half-Blood summer camp and Demi God powers are sure to keep you turning pages. 

4) Being Sixteen by Ally Condie
Based on her true story about the Author's sister who suffered from Anorexia Bulimia, this book tells the story from Alison's perspective and a few fictional elements. While the book is technically considered to be a work of fiction, everything she writes about the eating disorder her sister had is true. This book was truly a hidden gem from the library that I found a while ago.

5) By Your Side by Kasie West 

When a girl with anxighty is locked in the library for the weekend she never expected to find a mysterious guy from her school hunkered down there. The two foster a relationship between his backstorry and her anxighty. The book is a real page turner! 

6) Shyelle - Rise of the Dragon Kingdoms by Amanda Evergreen

Did you really think I wasn't going to put my own book on the list? It deserves an unofficial entry at least. And since it is my work, I cheated a little by just giving you the synopsis from the back of the book because I could. You can read more about the author information from the link.

A legend written nearly 2,000 years ago holding power to strengthen the good and punish the bad is about to be fulfilled when four siblings accidentally transport themselves into a world billions of light-years away from home. Kirsten and Crystal are fraternal twins. Together with their two brothers, Alex and Jimmy the four are faced with frightening reality. The only way to return home is to break the ancient magical force field created by the worst Dragon ruler Shyelle has ever seen, the Fire King Ezieken.

In the process of fighting against Ezieken’s binding magic, the four siblings meet Uziel, the Dragon King of the Ice Kingdom. While with Uziel they see that Ezieken is on a mission to rule the entire universe in rampaging brutality. Alien and with hope quickly fading the Esperson siblings must either band together to save the world as we know it or an entire world will be wiped from existence.

But wait! There's one more twist, while each character has a unique Shyelian gift, each also possesses a disability. Some physically challenged and some mentally challenged, the group will struggle to accept and support each other through their weaknesses. Kirsten, the main character from which perspective the Novel is told from suffers from Dyslexia, ADHD, and Anxiety.
