A Most Dangerous Innocence

Fiction

“The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie meets I Capture the Castle —all wrapped up in a spy novel. Fiorella De Maria writes with eloquence and much heart, touching on serious moral issues. This is a fun book with a dead serious message.”

Adeodatus

Fiction

“With Adeodatus, Michael O’Brien takes his rightful place among the finest writers of Christian apocalyptic fiction. Like Walker Percy and Robert Hugh Benson, he moves effortlessly between heartbreak and humor. His unforgettable heroes fight, suffer, and love their way across a ruined nation toward a nail-biting climax.”

Blue Miles

Fiction

“If Jane Austin and Marcel Proust were to rewrite DIARY OF A COUNTRY PRIEST, you might end up with something like “Blue Miles”—a gently comedic, sharply witty, deeply contemplative spiritual odyssey. When it comes to depicting the monastic life, Father Esposito gets it exactly right. He knows the rhythm and the silence of the cloister; but he also knows—and candidly reveals—the petty annoyances and tragic betrayals that occur there. BLUE MILES may be a work of fiction, but it is the most realistic and moving depiction of monasticism that I have ever read.”

Charis in the World of Wonders

Fiction

“Imagine if William Faulkner had decided to rewrite Last of the Mohicans. What you would have is something like Charis in the World of Wonders —a wild adventure tale written with grace and insight. Youmans' prose is fluid, sharply witty, and deeply rich in symbolism—the work of a master.”

If You Can Get It

Fiction

“At turns hilarious, heart-breaking, and subtly charming, If You Can Get It runs the full gamut of human emotion. More than anything, I want to write Jen a letter asking her to be my new best friend.”

Providence Blue

Fiction

“I am not sure how to classify what David Pinault has done here, but I like it. Is this fantasy? Historical fiction? Theology? Magical realism? The prose is terse, hard-boiled, and cynical—like its main character; but the story is full of darkly unpredictable characters and tragically comic turns of plot. It is at times both shocking and tender.”

Rekindle the Gift of God

Church Leadership & Ministry

“There is no wasted space in this book. Open it to any page, and you will find spiritual direction, consolation, apologetics, and lectio divina all rolled into one. Fr. Kereszty's book has already done me immeasurable good as a priest and as a Christian.”
