The Irish-American Catholic apologetics novel The Cross and the Shamrock is being offered for free by R.A.G.E. Media, publisher of the Guerrilla Apologetics series of books just in time for St. Patricks Day.
The novel, written by Fr. Hugh Quigley, is being offered as an ebook download at The Cross and the Shamrock.
The book tells the story of the OClery orphans in 19th century America. Having lost their father during the voyage to America, and their mother soon after their arrival, the O'Clery children find themselves orphaned in the New World, where conspiring forces try mercilessly to deprive them of their faith and heritage.
As the O'Clery orphans struggle to stay together and keep their faith, Fr. Quigley illustrates apologetical truths with the humor and drama of a novel.
Readers will find similarities to the Series of Unfortunate Events books, A Philadelphia Catholic in King James' Court, or a Charles Dickens' novel.
