Book Description

Series: Prodigal Project | Publication Date: August 31, 2004

Based on a Biblical interpretation of the Rapture, Kings continues the story of those caught up in the events following this world-upending event. Azul Dante, the increasingly controversial figure whom some nations hope will restore order to the world, recovers from a recent assassination attempt. Behind the scenes, another and even more sinister force exerts its powerful influence at a gathering of ten world leaders. While they meet, other events prefiguring the start of the last days have armies poised for battle.

Meanwhile, the members of the seven set out to spread the good news of Christianity and salvation in a world desperate for answers and assurance. Book 4: Kings demonstrates once again that:

The answer to the ultimate test is faith.

From AudioFile

Book Four in The Prodigal Project series continues the saga of those left behind after the shocking Rapture lifts believers from the earth. The authors base this story on the biblical interpretation of the Rapture in Revelation. Narrator Dick Hill plays seven major characters with unique pacing, accents, and style. His sinister depiction of Azul Dante, perhaps the long-dreaded Antichrist, is filled with threat and foreboding. His portrayal of the preacher from the Crystal Cathedral combines thunderous voices that fade to ghostly echoes and a strange sense of hopelessness that enhances his mysterious message. This well-done series depicts a dramatic test of faith. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine --This text refers to the Audio CD edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prodigal Project Book 4 Kings, October 11, 2004

I have read the entire series and am not a Christian fanatic or anything like that but this is great! I am totally consumed by the characters and the correlation to Revelations the author has produced. I keep wondering what will happen next, between the skies burning and the winds moaning, I cannot put these down once I start. If you have ever wondered what might happen based on the teachings of the Book of Revelations, these are must read fiction. The inter-twining of the characters makes the series encompass all types of people and how they would react if they thought the world was coming to an end. Absolutely the best series I have read in 35 years. I can't wait for Book 5!

5.0 out of 5 stars Best series ever, January 17, 2005

Once I picked up book one in the airport I could not wait for book 2 and then 3 and then 4, and now 5... quite simply, you will not be able to put this book down once you start. For a religious theme, it does not come off as preachy and really makes you think how you would react in the same situation. Although some of the characters names are quite cheesy and there is a large gap in time between release of the next book, I would highly recommend this book to anyone.

2.0 out of 5 stars All 4 books could have been written as 1 book, December 5, 2008

I read all 4 books in this series. It was interesting, but there was too much repetition throughout each book and each subsequent book gave repeated extended history from the previous books, which was really unnecessary. All 4 books could have been written as 1 book which would havce saved all the repetitious history. If reading the books one after the other as I did, it made for quite a boring book. I skipped quite a bit in the final 2 books. I can understand why the publisher discontinued this book. Well-written, but disappointing.
