Centurion’s Daughter
by Justin Swanton
Her Frankish mother dead, 17-year-old Aemilia arrives at Soissons in
Roman Gaul in search of her Roman father whom she has never met. She
finds him a bitter ex-centurion—a firebrand, derided by his fellow
Romans.
Soon, Aemilia is caught up in her father's schemes and the intrigues of
the Roman nobility in Soissons. But in the war between Franks and
Romans, Providence will lead her down a path she could never have
imagined. More...

Belisarius
Book II: Glory of the
Romans
by Paolo A. Belzoni
"With Belisarius II, Paolo
Belzoni continues to demonstrate his incomparable mastery of all the
historic resources for the life of our hero, as well as an informed
imagination to sustain a storyline that cannot be forgotten or much
improved. I enjoyed the second volume as much as or even more than the
first. Now, for number three!" More...

Leave
If
You
Can
by Luise Rinser
"I loved Leave If You Can. It
is a very good book to form people in an understanding of a vocation.
And there are some powerful lines in it in that regard. People may
think that one always is holy and attracted to religion, but that is
often enough not the case. One can be called and have an aversion.
That’s why I think the book has a lot to teach. In that respect, it is
a true story." 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...
