"Rapid cultural decline makes the moving completion of Father Elijah's story particularly compelling. O'Brien's eloquent call for faith and courage needs to be heard throughout the world." -- Marvin Olasky , Editor-in-chief, World "A book you can't put down. O'Brien is a master in narrating to us how the diabolic opposition to God might play itself out in our time." -- Fr. James V. Schall, S.J.
, Author, The Order of Things "I have read all of O'Brien's novels, but only while reading this one did I clearly notice the most significant power all of them have: something, or Someone, in these novels wakes me up, makes me wiser and holier." -- Peter Kreeft, Ph.D. , Author, Because God Is Real "Equal parts a thriller, a meditation on the life of faith, and a Canterbury Tales- like series of vivid snapshots of men and women struggling with good and evil, Elijah in Jerusalem offers a cinematic and thought-provoking reading experience." -- Holly Ordway, Ph.D. , Author, Not God's Type "It's been twenty years since the dullness of contemporary literature was set ablaze by the brilliance of Michael O'Brien's classic novel, Father Elijah. It is, therefore, a true joy that this long-awaited sequel has finally been published.
" -- Joseph Pearce , Author, Catholic Literary Giants "O'Brien is a masterful storyteller and a gifted artist. This beautiful depiction of human struggle and good versus evil will move and inspire you." -- Danielle Bean , Editor, Catholic Digest "Michael O'Brien's spiritual epic holds up a mirror to the moral chaos of the contemporary world without depriving the reader of hope." -- Fiorella De Maria , Author, Poor Banished Children " Elijah in Jerusalem is one of O'Brien's best-crafted books, a fast-moving, suspenseful page-turner adorned with lyrical graces and moments of joy which alternate with stark terror and evocations of a powerful presence of evil so palpable that it will prompt sober reflection on our troubled times." -- David Lyle Jeffrey, Ph.D. , Distinguished Professor of Literature and the Humanities, Baylor University "A thrilling novel full of deep intelligence and spirituality, tenderness and beauty." -- Astrid de Larminat , Le Figaro newspaper.
