A Novel Based on the Book of Luke

If you love the TV series, THE CHOSEN, you'll love THRONES IN THE DESERT.

THRONES IN THE DESERT does what no Biblical novel has done before. It weaves the story of five fictional characters through twelve chapters, with each chapter corresponding to the first twelve chapters of the Book of Luke.

The five main characters--a tax collector, a slave, a guard in Herod's Palace, a Pharisee, and the daughter of a Zealot--have all placed a false god on a throne in their life, only to see it overturned by the rabbi from Nazareth.

"He has brought down rulers from their thrones. He has lifted up the humble," said Mary, the mother of Jesus, to her cousin Elizabeth, when both women were expecting children of great promise. In THRONES IN THE DESERT, a young girl named Eliana overhears Mary's proclamation but is unaware of the approaching storm in her life--and the Messiah's ability to calm storms.

Follow Eliana and four others as they encounter Jesus. Their stories will challenge you to ask: What have you placed on the throne in your life?

The story of Luke- come to life

Excellent story of fictional characters that bring the story of Jesus come to life as portrayed in the book of Luke.

the story is fantastic. it really needs a human narrator though.

I don't mind virtual voice, but for this book with lots of unique names the mispronounced names were distracting. I rate the story though and hope the future books get human narrators

Biblical fiction steadily held my interest through the book

I want to hear the next in the series, but not with AI Audible. Enjoyable mix of characters - enjoyed the animals too.

You can’t really tell it’s a virtual voice

Some of his characters are more likable than others but life is full of that. Enjoyable listen!

AI reader making it a monologue rather than a narration.

Read by AI lacks feeling you get from human reader. Story jumps around, difficult to follow.
