THE KID AND THE SPARROW PRESS presents a novel against the darkness of this age—an endearing tale of adventure, innocence, and redemption.
Critically acclaimed reviews:
“This book presents a danger to our secular world.” —Committee on the Separation of Church and State
“Juan Domingo, the main character, perpetuates old-fashion ideals. . . including chivalry, innocence, purity, and the outdated family unit.” —Tom Chambers, president of Vital Modern Ethics
“While it begins seemingly innocuous, this novel elucidates the threat of Christian thought in a progressive society.” —The Foundation for an Enlightened Population
“The worst book I've ever tried to read. . . couldn't stand Juan’s reckless attempts at living out the Sunday sermons in his childhood. I had to stop after the fifth chapter.” —Karen
Juan is wanted by US federal authorities, a Mexican drug cartel, and God. On the run, he flees to a major port city on the Gulf of Mexico. Confronted by narco violence and the total impunity of organized crime, he makes the “mistake” of protecting a child migrant. When a cartel aims death at him like a heat-seeking missile, he takes it as his opportunity for redemption. Will Juan learn the craft of facing death from his Master and be capable of enduring the greatest directive: “Greater love has no man than this, that he should lay down his life. . . ”
Cathedrals, Mosques & Pirate Pierre begins in a remote river-town on the edge of the Amazon Basin. Juan's innocent childhood is filled with excursions into the rainforest, a sense of duty in being an altar boy, and dreams of becoming a professional boxer. When his family emigrates to the United States he must leave the waterways, flora, and fauna of his tropical birthplace.
