Books with title The House of Sixty Fathers

Jessie Kane's world fell apart the night she assassinated the evil Heavenly ruler, Markus Natimate, and learned that her manipulative father, Shaytan Adamahr, was still alive and well. _x000D_ Now fed up with all the lies, betrayal, and confusion, Jessie attempts to isolate herself from everyone she knows and loves. She just wants a break from all the chaos that is her life. _x000D_ But her world is shaken up once again when she hears threatening rumors from the astral city of Heaven. Frightening and graphic visions plague her, whether she's asleep or awake, and a severe, but kind rabbi from the synagogue down the street insists she must obey his commands or face an extinction of her people in the astral realm.

It's your team or your family or your neighborhood or your church, or maybe just yourself and two other guys. But you have to be able to count on each other, or you can't count on anything at all. My guys are Skitz Fitzsimmons, who's daffy as a box of frogs, and Hector Fossas, who could pass for Jesus' stronger, tougher, holier brother. I'd stack my guys against anybody's. The tribe that runs everything in my parish is the Franchise: Fathers Blarney, Mullarkey, and Shenanigan. One's an old blowhard, one's a nasty piece of work, and one's the coolest priest on wheels. Except as soon as you think you know all that, you find out you don't know anything. They're in charge of right and wrong, but it seems like they make it up as they go along. They want to break us apart, because of what we see and what we say. So I guess the question is, can the rest of the tribe wait when one guy's falling behind?

Excerpt from The Sins of the FathersThe shrill whistle of Cole Company's foundry had screeched forth its regular Saturday after noon's respite from toil. The great wooden doors and gates had been swung open; and a throng of hurrying operatives were jostling each other in their eagerness to pass the confines Of the prison like enclosures. Though tired after their week's labor, the men laughed and chatted and bandied each other with all the jocundity of fair-day rol lickers; and despite their weariness, appeared happy and contented as they poured out of the numerous workshops into the large rectangular yard, about which the buildings were grouped, thence under the arch, past the Office window, and out into the village square.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
