Centurion’s
Daughter
by Justin Swanton
"I loved it....It kept my interest and all
day long I looked forward to returning to
its pages at night. I was sorry to see the
book end....Strongly reinforced is that
sense that in the smallest acts of good, and
most humble of positions, no effort is
wasted and even if the act goes unnoticed it
fashions a character which cannot escape
notice for long. I strongly recommend this
book and would say it is appropriate for
young ladies and gentleman 15 years and
older and their parents of course. This
would be a great Christmas gift,
Confirmation gift for your Confirmandi or
addition to a High School Curriculum." More...

Belisarius
Book
II: Glory of the Romans
by Paolo A. Belzoni
"Like in the first novel, the writing is
smooth, simple, concise and yet beautiful in
its flow. It is obvious that the author has
clearly researched the subject material.
This is shown through the warfare, the
architecture and the political background of
the Eastern Roman Empire. The author brings
us into the ancient world by the proper
usage of ancient terminologies in both
ancient Latin and Greek. Permeated in this
atmosphere, we voyage through Belisarius'
military campaigns in North Africa and the
conspiracies of the Byzantine world. Well
written, accurate and entertaining, this is
a must read." More...

Angels
in Iron
by Nicholas C. Prata
"In addition to being
an exciting action/adventure yarn and
quite a page-turner, Angels in
Iron is valuable as a miniature
history lesson as well....This is a book
that belongs on the bookshelf of every
Catholic man, should be read by every
Catholic boy (11 or older, I would say),
and stocked by every Catholic school
library."

Crown of the World
Knight of the
Temple
by Nathan Sadasivan
"Knight of the Temple is
written in a style of historical fiction
that was prevalent in American Catholic
literature several decades ago and follows
in the footsteps of such Catholic classics
as The Outlaws
of Ravenhurst and the novels of
Louis de Wohl, but with greater intensity.
Sadasivan's book does an admirable job of
creating a believable setting and plot,
with sequences that take us from the Nile
Delta in Egypt to the streets of Antioch
to the Temple Mount of Jerusalem
itself." More...
