Award-Winning Newspaper Hails Pepin's Book as "Practical and Well-Documented"
For Xulon Press author Ricki Pepin, watching her child suffer for more than a decade with a debilitating illness spawned a book, God's Health Plan: Caring for Body, Mind and Spirit. In this book, the author shares with readers her discovery of seven biblical principles that changed her life during this chaotic time-as well as steps to both physical and spiritual detoxification. Now it seems as though reviewers are taking note of what Pepin has to say. Pendra Lee of Citizen USA, an award-winning newspaper, explained her reservations upon first picking up a copy of God's Health Plan: "My first thought was 'Oh no, another one of those Christian health books that reads well but is hard to implement.' I was wrong. This is the first book of its kind that I've read that gives a rational cause and effect for many diseases, then lets the reader take charge by following through via the extensive resources she provides." Lee goes on to say that "the author has done extensive research. Practical and well-documented, all the information one needs to start the 'audacious journey to a better life' is contained in this one book."

MBR Review Dubs Delgado's Book "Fascinating if Not Disturbing Reading"
Xulon author Bobby Delgado speaks out on America's prison systems in Gangs, Prisons, Parole: The Politics Behind Them, and now it appears as though the nation is taking note of his message. Ken Scott of Midwest Book Review's Small Press Bookwatch reviewed the book recently. Small said the author "takes the reader on a disturbing and graphic journey into the Texas prison system. He explains and tries to make the reader understand how 'good guys' can still find their way in and, once incarcerated, stand little chance of ever turning their lives around. Delgado tells it how it is and the book makes fascinating if not disturbing reading." The review, which is accessible via the Web at www.midwestbookreview.com/sbw/may_08.htm, also appears in the Cengage Learning Gale Interactive CD-ROM series "Book Review Index," which is published four times yearly for academic, corporate, and public library systems, as well as such book review databases as Lexus-Nexus and Goliath.

Jones Takes to the Airwaves to Broadcast Words of Praise for Xulon Books
Listeners were in for a surprise when Chad Jones of Sky High 91.7 FM KNEO Radio recently sat down to review several new titles from Xulon Press on the station's "Author's Corner" program. The seven-minute segment showcased the best and brightest of Xulon's newest offerings-from Michael S. Kientz's Build Your Walls! Guard Your Gates! to Todd Shaw's Out of the Box and Loving It! to Bill Armstrong's Musings from the Mountaintop to The Fall and Rise of Christian Standards by David Kidd to The Walk by Randy H. Bunyard to Complete and Total Salvation by James Howard.
Jones began by dubbing Kientz's work "a great story that has much to teach us about courage, leadership, faithfulness to God's call, and more" and had nothing but praise for Shaw's book, which he called "engaging and motivating...[a] book that provides guidance and encouragement to make a real impact on others in exciting and relevant ways." The praise didn't end there, however. Armstrong's Musings was hailed as a book that was "going to teach [readers] in a very special way," Kidd's Christian Standards was described as "a makeover for the church from the inside out," Bunyard's The Walk was described as being bound to delight people with its "record [of the] many authentic walks taken by real people," and HowardÕs Salvation was praised for its help in "simplify[ing] and explain[ing] your once unanswered questions."
