King Solomon is remembered as the wisest man who ever lived.
History remembers his wisdom.
Scripture remembers his faith.
But what if both were wrong?
Jerusalem stands at the height of its glory. The Temple rises. Nations seek Solomon's counsel. His judgments are legendary, his wealth unmatched, his authority absolute.
Then a command arrives from Heaven.
Through the angel Gabriel, Solomon is entrusted with a secret task unlike any ever given to a king: to compile a hidden record of spiritual powers, hierarchies, names, and dominions. A book never intended for ordinary men.
It is called the Segulat.
As the work progresses, angels advise, demons obey, and Solomon's influence expands beyond the affairs of nations into the unseen world itself. What begins as an act of devotion gradually becomes something far more dangerous.
For certainty can be intoxicating.
And faith that is never questioned can become indistinguishable from ambition.
Completed shortly before Solomon's death, the Segulat is sealed away by the Levite priesthood. Centuries pass. Kingdoms rise and fall. The original book vanishes from history.
Only fragments survive.
Names.
Ranks.
Seals.
Commands.
Stripped of their context and purpose, those fragments spread through the ancient world until they become known by another name:
The Goetia.
Part biblical epic, part historical mystery, and part theological thriller, Solomon and the Goetia reimagines one of history's most enigmatic figures and offers a provocative origin for one of the world's most infamous occult texts.
For readers who enjoy the historical mysteries of The Da Vinci Code, ancient conspiracies, biblical intrigue, and hidden histories, this is a story of faith, authority, obsession, and the terrible consequences of mistaking certainty for truth.
This is not a story about rebellion against God.
It is the far more dangerous story of devotion taken too far.
