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."
--Latin Mass Magazine
313 pp. ~ 1 map

Broken Crusts
by Clifford J. Laube
“I found myself amazed as I began to read
Clifford Laube’s poems. They open out onto the great regions of
Catholic spirituality. I was reminded of such writers as Romano
Guardini, St. Francis de Sales, and some of those early 20th century
French writers. I was really quite overwhelmed."
--Thomas Howard

Kerebos
by Nicholas C. Prata
Experience the gritty and dangerous world
of Pangaea in Nicholas
Prata's
masterful novel, Kerebos
and its climactic companion, Dream of Fire. With the power of Korenthis in eclipse,
the wastes of Pangaea are
terrorized by the raw, merciless might of the Black Legion. All fear
them. None dare resist them. To keep up their strength, the Legion
forcibly recruits the biggest, fastest, sturdiest young men and
brutally molds them into heartless killers. All Pangea longs for the
day
when the power of the accursed Legion is finally broken.
360 pp. ~ 4 maps
paperback ~ 978-1-889758-79-4 ~ $22.95 |

Belisarius
The
First Shall Be Last
by Paolo A. Belzoni
"Presents and argues for,
in an understated way, a Christian way of war, to be waged by manly men
who value purity and patriotism for the sake of preserving Christian
civilization. ...Not that the book deliberately carries a political
message. On its own terms, it is an ambitious tale, filled with action,
spectacle, and intrigues of all kinds....It is painstakingly authentic
in its historical, military, and religious detail, assiduously
researched and replete with facts."
—John Desjarlais, Catholicfiction.net
248 pp. ~ 3 maps

The Laviniad
by Claudio R. Salvucci
Written in the style of the ancient epics, the Laviniad draws on
historical fragments found in Livy, Vergil, Dionysius of Halicarnassus,
and others
to create a tale of heroic-age Italy. Ascanius, son of the Trojan hero
Aeneas, assumes the kingship in Lavinium, a city threatened with
destruction by
the blasphemous Etruscan tyrant Mezentius. The young king must overcome
his inexperience and step out of the heroic shadow of his father to
preserve
a city and a people who will eventually give rise to the Romans. More...
