Michael Coren

Ceremony of Innocence

Fiction

“A true joy to read. In a literary world increasingly distended with stale predictability, it's so energizing to read something genuinely original and vibrant.”

Eclipse of the Sun

Fiction

“The horrors in O'Brien's novel are frightening not merely because of his suspense-charged, page-turning apocalyptic plot, but because the instruments of coersion he describes are already largely in place. Interweaving moments of profound consolation and ultimate spiritual hope, as in his scintillating Father Elijah, O'Brien is revealed as a novelist of penetrating spiritual insight and prophetic clarity." David Lyle Jeffrey, Author, People of the Book "The sweet, lyrical and faithful voice of Michael O'Brien is perhaps the truest and finest in contemporary fiction. I searched for a very long time before finding a novel as vital as Father Elijah. I thought that such an achievement could not be repeated. It has with Eclipse of the Sun.”

Father Brown of the Church of Rome

Fiction

“This collection could not be more timely, both for Chesterton and for Catholicism. One cannot properly appreciate Chesterton unless one at least understands the Catholic Church and, I would venture to say, one will not properly understand the Church unless one appreciates G.K. Chesterton.”

Open Wide the Gates

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“An important book at an important time—when attitudes are changing—but as the title suggests, the gates need to be opened wide. This work will help very much. It will challenge many, convince many, even save many.”

The Price to Pay

History & Biography

“It's tragic that there has never been a more appropriate time for a book such as this. Compelling, lyrical, captivating, and acutely necessary. Essential reading for every relativist out there, and for those who believe that Christians are not persecuted.”

The Rising

Fiction

“Not only is this book difficult to put down, it is impossible to forget. When fine writing and compelling ideas combine, the result is essential reading. Works like this do not come along very often.”
