"At the time I was terribly confused about very fundamental things, like marriage, relationships, chastity, true love, true heroism. I was desperately looking around
for just one example of a couple who did things the right way, got married, stayed married, and did not regret it. I clung to examples that I found in books, mostly old classics, and fairy tales. A couple people close to me could not understand why I loved fairy tales so much. I don't think I really could have explained it to them, at the time. Then I found the book [The Shadow of the Bear] in the house of an acquaintence, and asked them to borrow it. In a time of my life when I was rather afraid of boys and men, I read your tale of the two young men, sleuthing the streets of New York City, risking their lives to bring the man who murdered a priest to justice. Bear and Fish were young, they were men, but they were strong and also kind. They were heroic. It was awesome."
-- Maria F., 9/6/09
"I don't have any idea of what, if anything, is "out there" in this category - - - but this is VERY good.
The only thing I know to compare it with are Madeline L'Engle's Austin Family series - because there is a solid moral core with realistic characters who have to make tough choices." -- Robert Trexler, C.S. Lewis Society, New York
"About a year ago, I was doubting even the most basic things, such as the Lord. I read your books... and after that, everything seemed to slowly even out, and now my faith is stronger than it has ever been. So thank you so much for these books - they've touched me and helped guide me in so many ways. Thank you so so so much....Your books are my all-time favorites...THANKS!!!" - Chelsea, 6/11/08 (full quote)
"I think that there needs to be more books like yours for teens because it shows that there are people out there who aren't afraid to share the faith, letting teens know that it's cool to have a relationship with the Lord. I think that's one of the reasons why so many people love your books, because it's an alternative to all the other books out there and it shows that you can love your faith, have a relationship with the Lord and still have fun and enjoy life." -- -- Anna D., 16.

"The
things I believed most then, the things I believe most now, are the things called
fairy tales." - G.K. Chesterton ("The Ethics of Elfland," Orthodoxy)
"If
you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want
them to be more intelligent, read them more fairy tales." - Albert
Einstein
"The
more truly we can see life as a fairytale, the more clearly the tale resolves
itself into a war with the Dragon who is wasting fairyland." -
G.K. Chesterton

Have
you ever felt that there was something going on in life that not everyone
was aware of?...As though there’s a story going on that
everyone is a part of, but not everybody knows about—a sort of drama,
a battle between what’s peripheral and what’s really important.
As though the people you meet aren’t just their plain, prosaic selves,
but are actually princes and princesses, gods and goddesses, fairies,
gypsies, shepherds, all sorts of fantastic creatures who’ve chosen
to hide their real shape...Or have forgotten who they really are.
Have you ever thought that?
--Rose
Brier, The Shadow of the Bear

Dear
Regina,
I
just wanted to tell you that I got your fifth book, Alex
O'Donnell and the 40 CyberThieves for Easter.
I read it all in one day! It was absolutely great!
You have a great gift and talent in writing. I wanted
to thank you for writing such great, solid Catholic novels!
One thing that I particularly love about your books are the
guy heros. I love how you make them such strong, Godly,
and truly masculine figures! We need that in our culture
today. Your books are a great inspiration for me to deepen
my Catholic Faith and my relationship with God. Thank
you so much for these books!
God
bless you,
Marlee Klopfer
