The Bronze Bow by Elizabeth George Speare. Wonderful YA Christian book. I must re read it soon.

Classic Christian fiction?
My candidates are:
A Prayer for Owen Meany, by John Irving.
The Starbridge Series and The St. Benet's Trilogy, by Susan Howatch.
And, depending on your definitions of great/fiction/non-fiction/truth/Truth, a smaller or greater part of the collection of books commonly known as The Bible.
-------------------- It's the Thirties all over again, possibly even worse.

I also liked The Witch of Blackbird Pond which was another one of her books. It was set the early days in America and the "witch" was a Quaker who was being persecuted by Puritans.
