Daniel was born in Jerusalem in the midst of King Josiah's religious revivals, a child with royal blood in his veins. While only a youth, he sees the hopes of a nation crumble when righteous Josiah dies in battle – and his revival perishes with him.
Daniel, however, continues to follow Josiah's ways. Then King Nebuchadnezzar attacks the city and carries off captives – including Daniel and his three friends, whose ability he is quick to recognise.
As exiles in a land of strange customs, Daniel and his friends are to be educated in all the wisdom of Babylon. But first, they must decide whose rules come first: God’s or Nebuchadnezzar’s.
Which will Daniel choose? And what will the king do when he finds out?
Before long, Daniel establishes himself as a man the king can’t do without, but jealous rivals ensure that danger is never far away.
This is the first book in a planned series about Daniel, a man held in high regard by God.
The process
Each week, a chapter or two of the book will be distributed to subscribers by email. It's helpful, it's thought-provoking, so why not subscribe to our latest serial Daniel, Man of Light? and enjoy some new Bible-based fiction every week?
This serial will be a little different from all of our earlier eBook serials, since we have decided to see if this book can be published through a traditional publisher. Thus, for this serial, subscribers will have to agree not to pass on to others any of the text or ideas in the story. The subscription fee charged is simply to help cover the distribution costs of the serial. If the book is subsequently published with a traditional publisher, a
serial for the second book in the series would follow in the same way if the Lord is willing.
Why not take this opportunity to subscribe to get early access to the story?
The serial will start tomorrow, God willing, at 9:00am on Tuesday, 17 May 2022 (AEST).
