Publisher Description

From the author of Peace Child, Don Richardson, comes Lords of the Earth, an unforgettable story of missionary tenacity and zeal that sold over 100,000 copies in the hardcover edition. // Engulfed in the darkness of Irian Jaya’s Snow Mountains live the Yali–naked cannibals who call themselves “lords of the earth.” Yet in terror and bondage they serve women-hating, child-despising gods. Missionary Stan Dale dared to enter their domain. // Lords of the Earth is the story of Dale, his wife, his companions, and thousands of Yali tribesmen–all swept together in a maelstrom of agony and blood that climaxes in a dramatic, unexpected ending. If you were captivated by Don Richardson’s “can’t-put-it-down” style in Peace Child, you will be moved by Lords of the Earth in a new and different way.

"Just finished re-reading this again. It definitely gets better each time, but it's partly that I need a few reads before I can really savor this type of book. The first time or maybe even first few times, I tend to be in too much of a hurry to find out what happens. And on a sidenote, I just happened to catch that there's some sort of tech company in our area called "Shadowfax". How cool is that? ;)"

    " The Lord of the Rings is one of my favorite stories of all time. I enjoy the danger and intrigue, the bonds of friendship and love, and the sheer epic-ness of the story. This book has shaped and continues to shape me as a writer. "

    " I've been a big fan of the movies for a long time, and one day I asked myself why I haven't read the books. I wasn't into big books, to tell the truth big books sorta scared me. But my little brother started reading this trilogy and I didn't want him to read something I haven't so I decided to read them. I finished the trilogy in 9 days. A record for me. I can't wait to read them again. "

    " The best book of all time. The language, imagery and creativity is astonishing, while the underlying theme of courage, self-sacrifice, honour and friendship should be essential themes in every school curriculum. I must have read this book a hundred times and am still very moved every time. "
