Reflecting on the Martyrs

[TheSeeker2014]

Looking for suggestions on Books, apps, or websites that has a list of some Martyrs and talks about their lives, how they died and their strengths and things of the like. (prefer a devotional layout and not a Novel)
I have had a person suggest The Prologue of Ohrid however it seems to be difficult to find available.
Thanks

Have you looked at Fox's Book of Martyrs?

The Project Gutenberg eBook of Fox's Book Of Martyrs, by Unknown.

Edit: Sorry, just realized what forum this is.

The Synaxarion in pdf format would be great, but I'm not sure if it's out there anywhere. I didn't see a complete version with a quick search.

Otherwise check the OCA site. Here's a direct link to a search on the site using the word "martyr".

Feasts and saints with names like “Martyr”

I hope that helps.

there's a great book on Georgian saints in English, and a lot of them were martyrs.

I'm glad you did. May God bless you brother.

The prologue of Ohrid is available in ebook format I think. I would suggest checking Amazon.

Pravoslavie/OrthoChristian has articles about the saints commemorated each day (Old Calendar), and the OCA website, as already mentioned, does the same thing (New Calendar)

the Greek Archdiocese also has a daily reader app as well.
