Knight Of The Holy Ghost

Who was Gilbert Keith Chesterton? A rotund man in a cape brandishing a walking stick? Certainly. A twentieth-century writer? Prolifically. A great champion and defender of the Christian Faith? Gallantly. He is known too as the "prince of paradox" and an "apostle of common sense." Chesterton has lately been enjoying a resurgence in popularity. His name appears on blog posts and news articles alike. His name is spoken more often on college campuses, and schools around the United States are being named after him. Who was this engaging, witty, prophetic man? Allow Dale Ahlquist, the president of the American Chesterton Society, to introduce you to him. In a rollicking adventure quite Chestertonian in flavor, Ahlquist captains an expedition of discovery into who this GKC fellow is. He deftly and cleverly explores Chesterton as a man, as a writer, and as a potential saint. Those curious about Chesterton will have their initial questions answered. Those who might be dubious about Chesterton's reputation will be challenged to reconsider. Those who consider Chesterton an old friend will be delighted. All will be engaged by amusing anecdotes, plentiful quotations, and a thoughtful study of the life of G. K. Chesterton.

This story tells the tale of an extraordinary human being, a child of God, who discovers his destiny with a small group of present day Knights doing battle with the one true enemy of humankind. Satan. Theirs is an order founded not to fight men of different faiths, but to war on "powers and principalities and the ruler of this dark age...".

Step into a world of Christian faith based fantasy-fiction where the power born of faith in the name of Jesus brings the sword of flame to life in the hands of the Militis Sanctus Phasmatis; The Knights of the Holy Ghost.
