William Newell once wrote, If the keys of the Bible, up to the book of Psalms, hang on Moses books, those of the rest of the Bible, through Revelation, hang on Daniel; and indeed very many of the prophetic Psalms fail to open to us till we see their solution in the wonderful visions of the faithful seer of the captivity.
Empire of Gold sprang from a series of Bible studies on Daniel. The information collated and compiled herein opens to us the biblical books of this crucial time in history. Empire of Gold is a series of historical novels set in the time of a pantheon of biblical and historical greats. Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Josiah, and Nebuchadnezzar live again as Empire expounds their deeds and the chaos of their world. Foundations tells the story that leads up to the world war that changed everything.
Review
In the introduction to Empire of Gold, the author asks, "Who said history was boring?" And this book takes away any doubt, dramatizing history with solid characters and full-bore action. We follow Jeremiah from his youth through the final scene as he is told he is the "prophet to the nations." We end up caring about him and what happens. The author does a good job of weaving biblical events, historical facts and imagined events and dialogue. The book brings the stories alive, and is a page-turner. Overall, a thorough, lively accounting.
