Publisher's summary

Margot’s paintings are stunning, terrifying, and prophetic. Within months, the world will end—but few believe her....

The end times predicted in the book of Revelation are about to crash down upon the world. The forces of evil are marshaling under the guise of a man of peace. One woman, gifted with divine prophecy, foretells a time of terrible trial and divine judgment.

Are her visions a gift from God, warning that the coming Tribulation can be avoided? Or are they a trick from the Great Deceiver?

When Dylan discovers her prophecies, his life changes forever, and he joins her. Then people begin vanishing. The world descends into chaos, anarchy, and lawlessness. And her paintings send Margot and Dylan on a dangerous mission. But rushing to stop them—the Antichrist and his legions of evil.

Will they prevail against the dark forces sent to destroy them? Will the world abandon its cynicism and see the hand of God before it’s too late?

Time is running out...for everyone....

The biblical signs are being fulfilled daily. Authoritarian governments everywhere are cowing their citizens. Lawlessness and disorder are tearing society apart. The world turns not to God but to immorality. Churches everywhere abandon the Bible and preach apostasy.

It’s all preparing the world for the coming of the Antichrist and the seven years of Tribulation.

Heeding the signs of the times, Mark E. Fisher presents his eighth novel, The Day the End Began. It's the first in Days of the Apocalypse, his new Christian end-times series, venturing into Christian apocalyptic, dystopian fiction.

Adhering to a Christian worldview, The Day the End Began closely follows the biblical end-times prophecies revealed by God in the books of Revelation, Ezekiel, Daniel, and others.

The voice of the narrator

I just could not finish the book. The story line is great. But the voice of the narrator hits me like nails on a chalkboard. Just could not listen anymore.

please use a new narrator next time

I liked the story and thought it was fairly well written. There were some things when it comes to operational security that I thought were lacking such as security with the phones and how sloppy they were in that regard. Also if Sergey was such a spy master, he did some very sloppy things like showing up at the apartment that he knows is being watched. In the future when you are talking about reloading a gun that uses magazines please don't call them clips. They are magazines. My big gripe though was the narrator. I couldn't get over the fact that he sounded like a child and didn't really give much vocal personality to any of the characters.

Good story, needs a new narrator

I'd love to hear the next book, but please get a new narrator for the future. It was pretty hard to get going because the narrator sounded like a kid trying to read a serious book... this series deserves someone who can bring the listener into the gravity of the situation, and the characters to life.

Enjoyed this story

The storyline was interesting. The characters were the best part of the book. I don’t believe in a pre tribulation rapture, however, the one thing that comes from “living through” the tribulation is that you can see the mighty hand of God and His protection. That comes through in this story and it is encouraging.

Excellent story but

Awful, truly awful narration. Loved the book and appreciate Mark Fisher’s investment. Hoping the next two volumes are narrated by a different person.

Very good story, but not good narrator.

The story is really good and Biblical sound, love the picture that is painted with the story. That said the narrator is not great and makes the story feel really clunky and basic sounding. Once I got over this I have really enjoyed this story and would recommend it to any Christian or anyone looking for a good end times story that flows the prophecies from the Bible. I look forward to listening to the rest of the story.

Tom Stone

Hearing the narrator's high voice made me question the book. But, it turned out to be the perfect voice for the young adult characters, especially with his great range.
The plot was fun and very creative and has convinced me to look at "The Day" with wide open eyes.

Great story, but narration not great.

Story is awesome! The person narrating was not good with different voicings for the different characters. His voice was too high and didn’t have a deep enough timbre to really deliver the different character voices. Probably why they switched starting on book 2 to a different and much better narrator. Much better on books #2-5.
