Description
The Complete Christian Urban Fantasy Collection of 15 short stories and 2 novelettes.
Brett Mitchell joined the militia late in 1812, intent on protecting home and family from invaders, knowing the risks: death in battle and infection from wounds. He didn’t count on another threat that came to American shores with the enemy. Something worse than guns, rockets, cannons, and mortars. Something out of his worst childhood nightmares, and even God appears to have abandoned him at his time of greatest need.
This series of short stories and novelettes follows Brett’s journey through fear, abandonment, and rage to acceptance, purpose, and renewed faith.
