Joel Beeke is one of the most solidly Reformed men around. I don't believe he is KJV-Only, just a defender of the King James Version over modern versions.
As for the books you mentioned, I haven't read them myself so I can't comment specifically, but in general Beeke is one of the best Puritan-minded writers and ministers around today.
RHB is a great resource for good Reformed books in general.

James -- not Joel
Yes -- I know Joel Beeke is a familiar name in Reformed circles -- I'm talking about James W. Beeke

I believe James Beeke is Joel Beeke's brother.

Hmmm, thanks for the clarification. I don't know anything about James, but I think highly of Joel.

Yes the books are excellent. I used the "Teens and Young Adults" books when I was in High School. Lots of illustrations and Bible references, they are well done.
I also taught from the book for older children (last year) and I also found it to be well done. Some of the parents found it confusing but I thought overall it laid out the material quite plainly.
