So much death. So much courage. And he’s not even to the middle of the century.

Covers a lot of topics so far. Each chapter is a new story

Good stuff so far. I enjoy the chapters that focus on one person more.

Ch 2 was less of a personal story. I didn’t like this at first, but then I realized: there are too many stories to tell. The Soviet Union - bad. Catholic Church and God - good. May I never be faced with a government similar to USSR but may I be granted the grace of final perseverance.

Very good so far. Enjoyed ch 1 on Father Pro. What a heroic death.

I enjoyed the introduction.

I've been reading this book for Lent for the past 2 years. It is very hard to read about so much death, and at the same time I very much admire these Christian men and women who risked their lives for Christ. Robert Royals makes their stories very interesting and backs up his research with many citations, useful if one wants to explore a particular martyr further.
