Books with a Beu
Jamie Beu, owner and co-author (with his wife) of CatholicFamily.info, is a "cradle Catholic", devoted husband, and father of two girls. He is a regular contributor to his parish newsletter, as well as an impassioned defender of the faith who is able to both support and challenge others as necessary -- all in an effort to build-up Christ's Kingdom on Earth. To this end, he does a lot of reading - not just of religious books (for education and research), but also of secular books, both to decompress as well as to keep a finger on the pulse of pop culture (the better to relate to others, as well as to help restore the culture).

The Guild
I really enjoyed getting the back-story of how Cyd became Codex. This "prequel" to "The Guild" was well-written and well-done, mimicking the style of the web series.I'm not particularly a fan of the graphic novel format, but the web series (and subject matter) seems to lend itself well to this particular medium (unlike Richard Castle's Deadly Storm). So, in spite of the medium, I still have to give this 4 stars for consistency of character development, humor, and awkwardness that are hallmarks of the series.
