This allegorical book is replete with illustrations and symbolism. The first book: Seeking, The First Book of Journeys, follows the travels of a runaway slave from the City of Bondage. Brae journeys in the company of the Messenger, emissary of King Immon, King of the Other Kingdom. Challenged in every port by Dagog, ancient enemy of the King, Brae becomes discouraged and almost turns back. Warfare becomes intense in the final battles of the journey when Brae must face his greatest fears.
The First Book of Journeys introduces us to the "Three Sovereigns," and their messengers, Truth, Mercy, Grace, Sorrow, and others. The Second Book of Journeys surprises us by giving us glimpses behind the scenes from the Other Kingdom. Salina, a child who comes to know and love the Messenger in the First Book of Journeys, travels her own path in pursuit of the Other Kingdom in Tried by Fire, the Second Book of Journeys.
The First Journey focuses on salvation, and the Second Journey provides a window into the suffering and endurance of people who persevere through trials of fire. You will learn to love young Salina as she grows up in a persecuted country and becomes a Resister in the army of her king, Immon. She will be pursed by Dagog, ancient enemy of the King, but her courage will prevail. A book of encouragement for those experiencing the trial of their faith.
Into the Unknown, the Third Book of Journeys takes us into a desolate land and shows us that He who called us is able to keep us, even in the very midst of evil. Mikhail, the merchant sailor who joined Brae in the First Book of Journeys, will experience his own test of faith in The Third Book of Journeys. His experience will inspire you to missionary service and intrigue you as the battles between good and evil abound in mysterious ways through out Mikhail's journey Into the Unknown.
If you know someone who is seeking truth but defended against a direct presentation of the gospel, the journey books may be just what you need to offer them. They will find themselves drawn into the characters of Addar, Emperor of the worlds, King Immon, son of Addar, and the Messenger, emissary to those who dwell in the Kingdom of Adawm. These books will delight readers of all ages.
