Susanne's
story, "The Convert", presents this dilemma: when one of his
congregation wants to marry an alien who is more flora than fauna, what's a
priest to do??
Review:
One of the top 7 in LEAPS OF FAITH: "The Convert", by Susanne Marie
Knight, is an interesting tale about an indigenous alien who wishes to marry a
human colonist to his planet. In this tale a priest must decide if he has the
right under God to marry this alien to a human. He goes through a lot of
psychological struggle, but when he hears the story from the alien, he begins to
look at the situation with his heart. Also included in this story is how abusive
we can be, simply because we don't understand, or do not seem to have the
capacity to understand things that do not fit into our little spectrum of
understanding. A wonderful story that is beautifully told.--David Brollier.
Christian Science Review.
FIVE
STARS! Quantum physicists, amazed by the symmetry of the universe, have said
that the more they delve into the quantum mechanics, the more convinced they
become of an existence of a higher power. Karina and Robert Fabian merge science
and faith in an anthology of fifteen Christian science fiction stories that
ignites our imaginations... In Susanne Marie Knight's 'The Convert,' Father Wren
has an equally awesome decision to make. He's the only priest on the Ophiuchi 4
colony and must decide the marital fate of Chloe and Ping. She's a deaf human;
he's a telepathic tree."--Scribes
World Reviews
"Highly
Recommended! ... the stories engrossed me from the beginning. Though
SF/religious in nature (as stated by the publisher), each story managed to be
more than that. They cover the gamut of human experience--doubt, faith,
adventure, and conflict. I found the juxtaposition of futuristic story elements
and inspirational elements compelling. Each aspect blends seamlessly into a
unique collection of stories. Regardless of your faith or reading preferences,
don't miss this collection of stories from FrancisIsidore Electronic Press,
including such authors as Leslie Brown, Peter Bell, Michael S. Poteet, Susanne
Marie Knight, Greg Beatty, and many others. It poses intelligent questions and
offers honest answers. This is a book designed to make you think, and it
achieves its goal."--Dog-eared
Webzine
Leaps
of Faith contains
fourteen stories by twelve authors. The stories delve into different aspects
of space exploration, time travel, hard science, evangelism in space, robot
rights, and contact with extraterrestrial lifeforms. Though much of the work
deals with Christian (and often Catholic) concepts, belief and general faith
also drive many of the stories. Some of the stories are pure adventure.
Others are deep, philosophical works that struggle with science and belief.
And, still others are humorous looks at our human selves. "The
Convert" by Suzanne Marie Knight and examines how far Christianity can
be extended to alien species--Janie
Franz, Myshelf.
Leaps
of Faith
will undoubtedly go down as one of the best collections of Christian science
fiction in this new century. Katrina and Robert Fabian have pooled together
some incredible talent... This book will certain entertain and challenge the
reader. If you enjoy short stories, this is for you.--Steven
Macon, Editor Yellow30 Sci Fi
"The
book was a real delight to read, and the authors wrote their stories well. It
was easy to become immersed in each tale as they followed one common theme. I
give LEAPS OF FAITH two thumbs up!"--Midwest
Book Review
"This
is a collection of stories from authors who explore many different aspects of

or when we reach out to alien races... I found the collection over-all thought
provoking and a good read." --Author's

5
STARS!! "Special Delivery" is a wonderful surprise. I started
reading this story, not really knowing what to expect, and was delighted with
the story Susanne Marie Knight brought to life. If you are at all familiar with
Roman mythology, "Special Delivery" will have an added level of
enjoyment as you meet the characters that change Ralph's life. The characters'
veiled references to mythology as well as Ralph's dry wit will have you smiling
at their levity and humor. Ralph has a self-deprecating sense of humor that
blends well with the first person telling of this story. Ms. Knight's writing
style and delivery ensures that readers are entertained and rewarded for taking
the time to read her work. "Special Delivery" is a short story that
delivers a quick, refreshing, and romantic twist that is sure to charm.--Amanda,

Angel Reviews
4
Roses! "Special Delivery" is a short story and only spans a few minutes in
the life of Ralph [Dunmeyer]. The story is fast paced and the dialogue is great.
We get to see what Ralph is thinking and feeling but not the other characters in
the book, not even in the end. The Fates do have plans for everyone and they did
a little show and tell with Ralph. You might learn that you don't have to change
completely in order to find happiness and love. If you have a little time to
spare and want to learn a little about Greek and Roman mythology then pick up
"Special Delivery".--Pam, A
