Book one of the Rise of Daniel follows Daniel, Jeremiah, and Nebuchadnezzar at the beginning of the Babylonian Captivity. Daniel, merely a boy of fourteen, is thrust into a world of conspiracy and evil when Jeremiah the prophet predicts the coming of the powerful Babylonian prince, Nebuchadnezzar, to conquer Jerusalem.
The kingdom of Judah has turned her back on the God of Israel, trusting in the Egyptians and the gods of the heathen nations around them. Jeremiah's prophecies strike at the heart of these abominations, creating enemies all around. Even Daniel, a mere lad, must take sides. But there is hope. If Judah will turn back to the one, true God then perhaps, just perhaps, disaster might be adverted.Meanwhile, Nebuchadnezzar is on his way with one of the mightiest armies ever to be assembled. More is at stake than simply the survival of Jerusalem, and Jeremiah must somehow save the ark of the covenant, for if he cannot, then surely Nebuchadnezzar will plunder the most sacred and holy object in all Israel. Even if the prophet manages to do so, Nebuchadnezzar has other plunder in mind. If he successfully captures Jerusalem, he intends to take the best and brightest of the youth of Jerusalem and convert them into loyal servants who can serve the king of Babylon-even rule over their own people.
A fast, action-packed read filled with danger, political intrigue, and betrayal. Containing an air of ancient ambience, well-researched both biblically and historically, this first book in The Rise of Daniel novels will delight and challenge.
WARNING: Some sensitive topics are addressed in these novels, but they are done so obliquely, meaning before or after the event. No vivid or descriptive details are given. Such topics include being made a eunuch, torture, and gruesome violence.
