  Why does God work in mysterious ways? One of the greatest saints ever to live, Catherine of Siena is mostly known for inspiring the pope to return to Rome from France, but her story begins as a young woman who thinks she is called to be a hermit! How did God turn this aspiring hermitess into someone who was called to argue with the pope himself and his whole entire court? See how little Catherine learns to love God and achieve great sanctity through loving the people she cares for along the way. 
  Mary Fabyan Windeatt was known as “the storyteller of the saints.” In the 1950’s and 60’s, she wrote over twenty historical fiction novels on the saints, bringing to life these holy men and women for young readers across the world. By artistically rendering familiar stories, the Windeatt books help readers see that the saints are real people whom we can emulate. 
  Ideal for all children, especially those enrolled in TAN Academy in the fourth through sixth grades for easy-reading literature.

  This undead collection contains: 
  1. Peter Green and the Unliving Academy  
  Fourteen-year-old Peter Green can’t remember how he died.  
   All he has are his pajamas, a silk tie, and a one-way bus ticket to Mrs. Battisworth’s Academy and Haven for Unliving Boys and Girls, a strange and spooky school for dead orphans like himself. 
  As Pete learns to fit in with his new supernatural schoolmates, he starts to discover his own uniquely undead abilities, and even begins enjoying his life after death...but he just can’t shake the feeling that he’s forgotten something (or somebody!) important. Somebody he left behind in the land of the living. Somebody he loved very much. 
  Somebody who’s in terrible danger.  
  2. Peter Green and the Skeleton Crew 
  Breaking through the veil that separates the dead from the living was just the beginning.? 
  Peter Green’s exploits in the world of the Unliving have earned him quite the reputation, but some are still questioning if he’s the real deal. In fact, he’s not too sure himself if his first great and successful adventure wasn’t just… a stroke of luck, perhaps?? 
  However, he won’t get any time to figure it out – his uncle needs him and two new friends to venture out on a mission. And not just any mission… Vicious pirates, killer, shape-shifting mermaids, and danger unlike any they’ve ever faced await Peter and his friends. Failure is NOT an option.? 
  3. Peter Green and the Desert Disaster  
  Harnessing true power requires a sacrifice. 
  Pete thinks he understands this... until he's forced to face the consequences. 
  Barely having survived his last adventure, it isn’t long before Peter Green is cast into peril once more. Thankfully, he seems to be getting a grasp of his “Other” abilities – his magic abilities – and it's starting to give him an edge in the battle against the victims of the otherworld. 
  But what happens when disaster strikes where it hurts him the most, and I placed his new best friends in great danger?

  Please don’t send me back to Earth. 
  The year is 2075. Earth is ruled by a one-world government. In order to maintain unity, all citizens must deny their national, racial, and religious identities—or suffer the consequences. 
  Stripped of her rights for refusing to assimilate, sixteen-year-old Philadelphia Smyrna escapes Earth’s religious containment camps when her father is summoned to work on Mars. The remote research base seems like a haven of tolerance—until she discovers it’s the same base where her brother mysteriously died two years before. Searching for answers, she stumbles into a hidden lab and uncovers terrifying experiments for an apocalyptic weapon. The scientist in charge has cruel plans for Earth, and he will kill to keep his secret hidden. Racing to stay one step ahead, Philadelphia must decide whether to save the people who have oppressed her for her entire life—or save her family and let Earth burn. 
  Red Rain is the first book in this fast-paced Christian sci-fi adventure for teens and adults.

  Process by A. E. van Vogt - An ancient intelligence stirs, locked in a struggle for survival against forces both familiar and alien. But when outsiders arrive with their own secret agenda, the battle takes an unexpected and perilous turn. 
  Alfred Elton van Vogt, (A. E. van Vogt) was born on April 26, 1912, in Edenburg, Manitoba, Canada, and grew up on a series of remote farms in the prairies before his family eventually settled in Winnipeg. A shy and introspective child, he developed a love for stories at an early age, devouring books and radio dramas while imagining vast adventures of his own. Before turning to science fiction, van Vogt worked as a census taker, farmhand, and in advertising, sharpening his skills as a writer with confession stories and radio scripts. 
  In 1939, inspired by reading the landmark issue of Astounding Science Fiction that featured John W. Campbell’s vision of a “new wave” of science fiction, van Vogt decided to devote himself fully to the genre. His first published story, “Black Destroyer,” appeared in Astounding in July 1939 and made an immediate impact. From that moment, van Vogt emerged as one of the Golden Age’s most influential authors.
