A scholarly examination of a fascinating topic

Brian Godawa is the premier author of Christian fiction. Like Frank Peretti, he has an uncanny ability to paint a picture of what is happening in the Spirit realm. In this particular book, he flexes his scholarly muscles and hits this ancient historical record unlnown to many out of the ballpark. Were their goants, or were they just tall people. Where did demons come frpm? Where did Jesus soend those 3 days after His death on the cross. These and many more mysteries of the Bible will become clearer as you digest this revelatory work!

The story of ancient near eastern civilization.

This is a well researched documentary. I enjoyed listening to it and learned a lot from it.

Thought this would be more about the Giants

This book had all the makings of an interesting story but kept repeating the same passages of the bible and book of Enoch. It had its good points but at times was like a boring lecture.

Excellent

Great book. He did his research and gave references as well. I loved it so much I went through it twice. It heightened my relationship with God and the Bible.

Makes me want to read the series

I wasn't aware of "The Chronicles of the Nephelim" series, but now I want to read them all. This had been one of the richest books I've ever read. Full of imagination, solid research and truth. I'm glad that people like Brian are using their gifts to show us the mostly hidden storyline of the Bible and the"cosmic war of the seed"!
