Editorial Reviews
“An extraordinarily readable book featuring an unusually fascinating character.”
—Dallas Morning News
“Magical, mythical, profound, Danny Gospel takes us from the lost family farms of Iowa to the lost beaches of Florida and manages to cover everything: faith, doubt, kindness, cruelty, redemption, and passion.”
—Faith Eidse, co-editor, Unrooted Childhoods
“Danny Gospel is the best American novel deliberately written from a Christian perspective.”
—Professor James B. Anderson, St. Cloud State University
“What is a song? It is a perfectly expressed emotion. It is words that dance. It is a place on returns to again and again, like a rhyme, like a home. It is a cry to heaven. Danny Gospel is a song. David Athey sings it.”
—Dale Ahlquist, President, American Chesterton Society
