Historical Biblical Fiction at its Best!

Even though it's fiction, it helps you see the humanity in the people you read about in the Bible. Who knows, the story might be closer to the real thing than you think.

An engaging, well written thriller. Could have been ripped straight from the headlines. Some Christian references but not preachy.

Love the fast pace, couldn't put it down!
This series is chilling when you consider the hard science. Makes me wonder just how vulnerable the whole world is to tech terrorism.
