"Spero is an imaginative fantasy that subtly instructs, entertains, and intellectually provokes the reader. It is fascinating reading. I'm definitely hooked on this series." Jean Heimann at Catholic Fire.
"...intelligent as well as inspiring..." Terry Barga at whattodoabout.com.
The first book in the Birth Pangs series, Fidelis, is Latin for faithfulness. The second book, Spero, is Latin for hope. Spero is an exploration, in fiction, of what hope is and why we need it. It is an exploration of what things are good to put our hope in and what things aren't. In the America of the future portrayed in the Birth Pangs series, all of the things that people have traditionally put their hope in have been brought low. There are no government agencies, no schools, and not even churches. In the face of daily perils, people have to figure out how where they are going to place their hope in dealing with them. In the end, there is one daily peril that surpasses them all: death. Spero is about people- even good people- putting their hope in lesser means to tackle lesser problems and being confronted with the consequences. Spero is a 'discussion' about our chief problems and what solutions, if any, are available to resolve them.

I noticed that I am selling my books for less than Amazon.com so I thought I would look around to see what other prices are.
To my surprise, BarnesandNoble is offering the best prices hands down- even beating me- especially on the hard cover.
Here are current prices:
| Fidelis soft cover | Fidelis hard cover | Spero soft cover | Spero hard cover | |
| Birth Pangs (signed) | 14.95 | 24.95 | 14.95 | 24.95 |
| Amazon.com | 15.95 | 29.95 | 14.35 | 29.95 |
| BarnesandNoble.com | 14.35 | 23.96 | 14.35 | 23.96 |

The biggest day of shopping each year is coming up in just a few days. We are all told we must buy buy buy in order to save the economy. Just in time, I am bringing out the first book Fidelis, with a new cover and larger print. This second edition of the soft cover has the same cover as the hard cover of Fidelis. Now, with the Birth Pangs series now consistently themed, you will find that a gift of the Birth Pangs series is an attractive, matching gift for the holidays.
If you recently purchases a copy of Fidelis in the first edition cover, please contact me and I will send out the second edition to you for $10 which includes media mail shipping. This is essentially sending you a copy at cost. Email me at author@birthpangs.com.
I note that Amazon.com is now selling Spero for $14.35, undercutting me by a good sixty cents! No biggie. I can still do what Amazon.com can’t, though, and that’s sign the books. An autographed set of a second edition Fidelis and first edition Spero is just right for the readers in your life.
In conclusion, make sure that if you buy Fidelis in soft cover that the cover is red and has the ISBN of 978-0979127656. Hopefully, the old one (978-0979127618) will be replaced by outlets like Amazon.com and the reviews transferred over appropriately.
