Do you believe in angels?
People have different perceptions of angels. Some see them as good luck charms, some think they fly around heaven, some think they are just fairytales and collect figurines for a hobby. Yet, others think they do not exist at all... and then, some are positive that there are Guardian Angels.
Angels are sent by God to watch over, protect, and to transport our prayers to God's ears and return God's whispered answers to our hearts. This is what Henry and Jenny believed and put their trust in through their inspired yet tumultuous journey of life's struggles, victories and the miracle of deep enduring love.
"Pewter Angels," the first book of The Angelic Letters Series, dismisses any doubt that Guardian Angels do exist and is intended to bring direction into people's lives.
Through this five book series of the lives and love of Henry Pederson and Jenny Sarsky, is fiction a reader can easily identify with through actual occurrences in their individual lives that could only be explained as divine intervention. All heaven broke loose for Henry the first time he held Jenny's hand says the book's author, and the journey of joy, pain, loss, sorrow, and the miracle of developing a life long love began.
Lumsden's Henry Ripplinger, author of Pewter Angels and The Angelic Letters Series, is a gifted author who came to writing late in life. His lifelong experiences as a high school teacher, guidance counselor, professional artist and businessman have prepared him to craft this epic love story.
Ripplinger is also one of Canada's foremost prairie artists and his work is on display in private and corporate collections across Canada. His art work can also be seen as the illustrations of the critically acclaimed book If You're Not from the Prairie, which has sold over 200,000 copies and is in almost every home of his local province.
Following in its footsteps, Pewter Angels is that once in awhile love story that comes along to captivate us by reaching deep down and engendering emotions some of us never knew we had.
In the 1940's there was Gone with the Wind, in the 1970's there was Love Story, and in 2010 there is Pewter Angels - The Angelic Letter Series.
Pewter Angels is all this assures Ripplinger - and more. He says "it's a book that touches men and women alike and that you cannot walk away from until you reach the last page,
"... and yet, it leaves you wishing the next books were right there for you to pick up and continue on to an ending that surprises and satisfies beyond the reader's most wishful imaginings."
