Publisher's summary

The Origin Story of the Book of Revelation

What in the world was going on when John had his visions of apocalypse?

Ancient Rome, AD 64. Alexander, a Jewish doctor loyal to Rome, has his life turned upside down when the evil emperor Nero Caesar launches a horrific persecution of Christians.

When Nero discovers that an apostle has written a secret apocalypse about the end of the world, he orders a Roman warrior to hunt down the scroll, destroy it, and kill the author.

But a bold Christian woman named Cassandra holds a dark secret that opens the door to a world of spiritual warfare they’re not ready to face.

It will lead them to the holy city of Jerusalem and to the true meaning of the apocalypse.

It will change their world forever. And yours.

Tyrant: Rise of the Beast is Book 1 in the shocking controversial series Chronicles of the Apocalypse. It’s an edge-of-your-seat action-packed supernatural epic, written by Brian Godawa, respected Christian and best-selling Biblical author.

Spiritual Warfare, Angels and Demons

The human story is not the only one in the book of Revelation or in this series. Chronicles of the Apocalypse shows the evil plans of Satan and his fallen angels the Watchers masquerading as gods of the nations at war. This gang of demons is not going down easily.

Tyrant

Awesome. Another classic by Brian Godawa. A good eye opener for one of the most misunderstood books in the Bible.
The only small section I did not particularly care for was Godawa's presentation of the 3 angel's attempt to capture Appollion before his decent to Tartarus. Godawa showed 2 of the 3 angels engaged in their silly rivalry and inattentive and that was part cause of them not capturing him. I could not wrap my mind around the fact that the evil one was stronger, swifter and far more focused than God's angels. But the book was an absolute classic; can't wait until Remnant comes to Audio books. Godawa is such an awesome narrator Great job!

The story itself

Im in love with the combination of history and fantasy. The story itself is so well put together that its almost hard to believe it is not a story from the original text of the bible. The story and narration leave you on the edge of seat. The great attention to detail the combination of facts and fiction makes a listener feel as though they are watching events unfold from behind the veil. I have loved Brian's work from the Chronicles of the nephilim to now and i have yet to be disappointed

Thank you for this work

I’ve lived a life filled with dispensationalism and Zionist teaching and learning. Over the last three years I’ve been on a journey unwinding much of that. Brian’s books have helped me to understand and learn something different. I finished the chronicles series and am working through this newer series. Brian does a great job of relying heavily on theology, history and the Bible and filling in with his fictional work where there are missing pieces. This work has been a gift to my heart.

The Rise of the Beast: is this the only way to look at the End Times Scenario?

I have read Brian Godawa’s Old Testament series: The Chronicles of the Nephalim and enjoyed it. I was hoping that he would be just as meticulous in this series but I have a problem with some of the time factors in this work. He explained within the book about how the sevens in Revelation are to be taken , they are not just cyclical but all the prophecies of the Bible can be taken to be meaningful in the ways of happening in the past and present and future! The Word of God comes to those who are willing to hear with open ears and eyes as well as to those who are not into believing it’s accuracy.

Loved this audiobook!

Brian Godawa is an excellent author weaving biblical truths in a fascinating read. I usually am a book reader but the audiobook really made this story come alive. I love that he uses the divine council worldview which other biblical scholars also uphold (Dr. Michael Heiser). It always makes me want to go back and dig into the word of God once again. Loved it!

Great book

I loved this book so much and I will be buying the next in the series. That is enough to let you know know what I think.

Brings the Bible to life

The author is well researched as the PDF footnotes that are included in the book. I can't wait to continue with the series.

Good enough for a first book.

I do not completely agree with the theology. However, story line is pretty good. Enjoy

Fabulous

The entertaining series depicting the life of Christians surrounding the destruction of Jerusalem is a must read/listen! I enjoyed this series very much

I’m hooked

Not what I thought a novel about the book of Revelation would be but I’m finding it quite compelling
