Wilfred M. McClay, University of Oklahoma, author of Land of Hope: An Invitation to the Great American Story
“In Angel Mountain, Christine Sunderland has created a gripping and theologically rich novel, in which four remarkable people make their way through a shifting cultural landscape ringed with apocalyptic fire, revolutionary politics, and end-times expectancy.”
Paul Russell, author of Looking Through the World to See What's Really There
“Angel Mountain, which the world calls Devil Mountain, is beyond the reach of the secular city of Berkeley. There is a man living on the mountain who speaks of heaven and hell and good and evil. Just raising these topics is enough to spark concern and violence in his audience. Meanwhile, the world of 2018 is on fire, both literally in the countryside and spiritually in the minds and hearts of the characters of this quietly apocalyptic novel. Perhaps when the world does end, it will end both physically and spiritually at the same time. If so, Christine Sunderland's Angel Mountain shows how to live in the midst of disaster and how lives can be remade if we have bold enough hearts. Read if you dare!”
Fr. Seraphim, Elder, Nazareth House Apostolate, Taylorsville, Kentucky
“I have a certain shelf of books that I intend to read more than once. Christine Sunderland's latest novel, Angel Mountain, is one of those books that will go on that shelf, for I will read it again. It is not a paint-by-number book. It is a Van Gogh, with poetic hues, chroma, colors, and shades brilliantly flowing in and out from one another creating a literary painting one will not soon forget.”
Michael De Sapio, author of two screenplays, The Incredible Life of Joey Coletta and Dutchess County
"Christine Sunderland’s Angel Mountain is a contemporary novel of timely relevance and timeless spiritual themes...Sunderland sustains our interest right through the gripping, mystically charged denouement in which we see heaven and earth meeting and eternity intersecting with time. This fascinating novel comes strongly recommended.”
