I have just finished reading “Theophilos”, a novel by Michael D. O’Brien, for Ignatius Press audio books. This is the third novel I have performed by O’Brien. I say “performed” because I do “dramatic readings” of the novels, changing my voice and portraying the different characters, and creating thereby something of a radio play.
O’Brien’s work is gripping and spiritually profound. I encourage everyone to check out his novels, all of which are not only written from a Catholic perspective, but also (surprise!) well-written and entertaining to read. And each of them contains at least one moment guaranteed to blow you away with surprise or passion. So far I’ve done O’Brien’s “Father Elijah”, “A Cry of Stone”, and now “Theophilos” for Ignatius Press audio books.
In fact, here is a link to web page that contains a list of all of my audio books published by Ignatius. You can also listen to a sample from “Theophilos” from this page.

Kevin,
You are a great talent. What you are doing with the arts is very important. As a former filmmaker, your work gives me hope that we can inspire each and every generation. Thank you for your leadership!
“Father Elijah” is one of the best modern novels I’ve read. It appeared quietly during a rash of apocalyptic fiction (e.g., the Left Behind series), but O’Brien’s contribution was unique in that it had plausibility. It reminds me of Benson’s “Lord of the World.”
That’s a actual acceptable ascertainment and a abundant band of thought.
