St. Bartholomew's Eve from Heirloom Audio
Get ready to get swept away into history! We have been listening to another new favorite St. Bartholomew's Eve from Heirloom Audio. We have been enjoying these fully dramatized audio adventures for the past several years, and were so excited for another!
This 2 CD set is over 2 hours of action packed adventure. Recommended for ages 6 and up, my entire family loves to listen. It is filled with some big name actors like -Brian Blessed, Elizabeth Counsell, David Shaw-Parker, Brian Deacon, Andy Harrison and Hugo Docking just to name a few. The music has been written by Emmy Award Winning Composer John Campbell.
Based on The Extraordinary Adventures of GA Henty, this story takes back to 1572 and a true historical event, the St Bartholomew's Eve massacre. My boys have been long-time GA Henty fans. His stories are full of edge-of-your-seat adventure, but also of noble characters and godly wisdom. I highly recommend introducing your family to his writing and these audios are the perfect way!
In the story we follow young Philip Fletcher, a young Englishman with French family ties, and his friends as they find themselves inside the religious war between Catholics and the French Hugenots (protestants). We are currently studying the reformation time period, and this story brings the struggles these Christians faced to life, and makes the time period unforgettable. I love this short video from Heirloom Audio about the power of stories...
The audio is full of sound effects, swords clashing, hand-cannons firing, and beautiful music. A Mighty Fortress is our God, a Martin Luther song, is unforgettably sung by our heroes in a dark hour. To be persecuted by other Christians simply for a difference in expression of worship to the same God, is a sobering history we share. My testers and I will never look at this historical time period the same.
The story is an intense one, so be sure your young children are ready to listen. This time period is violent, and the audio does a great job showing an accurate picture of the time. The story focuses around the question, Whom shall we obey? The King of France, or the King of Kings? I think it's so important our children know and understand our Christian history... if they don't, they will be destined to repeat it. This story gives them a clear charge to obey God, whatever the cost.
All through the stories, we hear our hero, Philip and his friends quoting scripture, and openly displaying their Christian values, even at great personal cost. I love how these stories demonstrate true heroic values like courage, friendship and devotion without being preachy. Our families need heroes to look up to, and their are few better that those GA Henty has given us and Heirloom Audio has brought to life for us.
We highly recommend them!! Be sure to check out our reviews other audios we have enjoyed:
