The best Catholic fiction.
Excellent Catholic fiction and very easy to read. Hard to put the books down once you start to read. Hope more books are on the way.

Must-Read! Good Books!
I was skeptical at first. I was happy to see that there were books whose driving force was Catholicism and therefore happy to read them,but I somehow expected them not to be as good as "real" books. I guess I had been tainted with the idea that such books were more or less hokey. I'm glad I read Pierced By a Sword anyway, however, because it wasn't hokey at all. I was further surprised and joyful to find how full it was of hardcore Catholic belief. I LOVED it. I also learned from it. I considered myself someone who prayed a lot until I read this book, even though I didn't do a daily rosary. Now I know I need to be praying a lot more, and I have begun a daily rosary which, with the help of God and Mary, I have been able to maintain. Now I am praying that my husband, a returned Catholic, will soon join me. I can't wait to read the next two (I have to order them for myself since the one I read was my father's) and have already recommended them to a couple of my very good friends.

Pray I Can Get More!
Addictive might be the word for it! I'm on my second time through and really don't want it to end. If I had a stamp I'd order the other two and
the tape on Our Lady. Since I don't please pray my Abbess will allow me to order them when I ask her about it. Thank You!

God's will must be our will!!!!
Reading this book has opened my heart to God's blessings, brought me to see myself in a different way, showed my how much I must change and trust the Lord in His Will and not mine. I can see how God's mercy is for all of us and that we all can change ourselves and others by our example. I feel God's love and mercy and the change in my heart for doing God's work! May God Bless You and your family!

Exellent Book, Written to Perfection!
Riveting book that this now college student couldn't put down until fininshed. In its own way, it asks the question: "are you ready?" A must read to understand what might be coming.

Uplifting and Entertaining
Thank you so much for writing a book that is both uplifting and entertaining at the same time. Have you thought about having a screenplay written and a movie made?

Revelatory, Mystical, Spiritual--Gripping Reading
Absolutely thrilling. I had finished LaHaye's Left Behind series and started a Catholic study guide for Revelations when our local bookstore owner suggested Pierced by a Sword. I couldn't put it down! It's revelatory, mystical, spiritual. It energized my bible studies. I can't wait to get the marian apparition tape. I can't wait for my husband to read the book so we can talk about it. The brings home how deep, rich, other-wordly our faith really is. How real, how tangible our faith is. I've recommended the book to my family and friends. I recommend it to you.

A novel that makes you think
I was very intrigued by PIERCED BY A SWORD. The book was very well-written. The novel drew the reader inside, making him/her feel as if they were a character living right there in the book. I also felt a strange urging to start saying the rosary again.

It has changed my life.
I read this book 4 years ago and it has changed my life. I had never prayed the Rosary before and now I pray the Rosary daily, followed by praying for many family members and friends. I have shared the book and your Rosary tapes with friends and it is so powerful what you have done for so many. Thank you so much!

EYE OPENER
This book is more powerful than what anyone could say to you. I have seen so many changes in lives who have read this great novel. I can't stop giving it to people and praying the rosary.
