I enjoyed Christopher's Tripod trilogy and The Lotus Caves. His teens are normal, rather than emotional wrecks or unnaturally capable, and their adventures have reasonable scope as well. Until the Tripod prequel came out years later, I thought these were HG Wells's War of the Worlds aliens from a successful follow-up invasion.

I'm curious how you, as a religious person, would view the efforts of those who noticed slaves were suffering and responded by evangelizing them, rather than doing anything that would do any good from a secular perspective. I suppose in practice there was a lot of overlap between practical help and evangelizing, but it's hard for me to understand why any effort went to evangelizing.
