This novel of page-turning action and adventure poses the question, "If a society had no knowledge of Christianity, and then a Bible were discovered, what would happen?" Four hundred years after a deadly virus and nuclear war destroyed the modern world, a new and noble civilization emerges. In this kingdom, called Chiveis, snow-capped mountains provide protection, and fields and livestock provide food. The people live medieval-style lives, with almost no knowledge of the "ancient" world. Safe in their natural stronghold, the Chiveisi have everything they need, even their own religion. Christianity has been forgotten--until a young army scout comes across a strange book. With that discovery, this work of speculative fiction takes readers on a journey that encompasses adventure, romance, and the revelation of the one true God. Through compelling narrative and powerful character development, The Sword speaks to God's goodness, his refusal to tolerate sin, man's need to bow before him, and the eternality and power of his Word. Fantasy and adventure readers will be hooked by this first book in a forthcoming trilogy.

Sadly I found it came across as a Disney fairy tale, by that ... Read more

Recommended for everyone aged 16 and older. This first book in the Chiveis Trilogy introduces readers to an isolated mountainous kingdom in a post-apocalyptic world that has reverted back to medieval technologies and pagan religions. It’s part science-fiction, part fantasy, and part historical fiction. In the kingdom of Chiveis, a powerful pagan priestess keeps the masses devoted to an unh... Read more
