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...
