Platypi Books Online: Christian Fiction

One of my favorite activities is to read a good novel, here are a few selections with a Christian theme. I have selected sci-fi/fantasy, mystery thrillers, and action/adventure titles to put on this page since that is basicaly what I read.

Also I have a section for Biblical historical fiction, these books are written about Biblical characters or events but not everything in them is fact, it can bring a whole new outlook on the Bible to read a novel about what it may have actualy been like to be there.
