Looking for the ideal Christmas gift
for the Christian reader, or perhaps just exciting thrillers for yourself?
Consider Ray Keating’s Pastor Stephen Grant Novels – WARRIOR MONK, ROOT OF ALL
EVIL?, AN ADVENT FOR RELIGIOUS LIBERTY, and THE RIVER.
Ray
Keating has been called “a great novelist” by the host of KFUO’s “BookTalk”
radio, and Amazon.com reviewers have compared his thrillers to the works of
Clancy, Ludlum, Grisham, Cussler, Griffin and Morrell.
Marvin Olasky, editor-in-chief of WORLD magazine,
lists Ray Keating among his top 10 Christian novelists.
In a Washington Times review of THE RIVER, Kenneth
V. Blanchard wrote: “‘The River’ takes us to the core of moral principle; that
is the battle between good versus evil, right versus wrong and the differences
between one's past and present lives, leaving the reader in deep reflection
about the blurred lines that inspire inner conflict in anyone who has a past
that they must reconcile with… Mr. Keating also allows you to discover how each
of his characters tick in a style and tone reminiscent of some of the best-loved
books of all time.
Regarding Keating’s
novels, David Keene, former president of the American Conservative Union, said,
“Thriller and mystery writers have concocted all manner of main characters …
but none has come up with anyone like Stephen Grant, the former Navy Seal and
CIA assassin, and current Lutheran pastor. Grant mixes battling America's
enemies and sparring with enemies of traditional Christian values, while
ministering to his Long Island flock. The amazing thing is that the character
works. The Stephen Grant novels are great reads beginning with ‘Warrior Monk,’
which aptly describes Ray Keating's engaging hero.”
