For decades, Peter Kreeft has helped readers think more clearly about truth, faith, and the meaning of life. His works of philosophy have shaped countless minds.
But he has written only one true work of fiction.
An Ocean Full of Angels is that book. And for many readers, it will feel like discovering a hidden treasure.
Set along a haunted New England coastline, it tells the story of ‘Isa ben Adam, a Muslim philosopher who grew up believing the ocean breathes because an angel lives inside it.
What unfolds is not a tidy parable, but a sweeping, imaginative drama filled with mystics, skeptics, and seekers arguing about God while history itself seems to tremble in the background.
Playful, tragic, and audaciously hopeful, it reveals a world where grace moves like a hidden tide beneath ordinary lives.
This remarkable novel serves as the inaugural title of Word on Fire Luminor, a new publishing imprint dedicated to reviving the richness of Catholic literature by publishing novels, stories, memoirs, and criticism that illuminate the Catholic vision of life for serious readers of any faith or none. Its goal is not only to preserve a tradition, but to expand it and bring new readers into it.
An Ocean Full of Angels is the perfect place to begin. It shows what happens when serious ideas, imaginative storytelling, and spiritual depth come together in one unforgettable work.
