Publisher's Summary

Book 2 of the Kings of Israel Series is available now!

See the story through the eyes of the two men that lived it. Witness David’s rise to strength from humble beginnings and King Saul’s descent from the nation’s highest title. What drove David to succeed? Why did Saul fail?

As featured on Reedsy Discovery!

David was a shepherd, then a warrior. Now, he’s a fugitive, called by God to lead the nation, yet chased into the desert by Saul, the mad king who rules in his stead. But he isn’t alone. Gathered with him is a ragtag group of the downtrodden and discontent. Men who need to a leader. Men who need a king.

Saul has fallen hard. Once the proud ruler of God’s chosen nation, he’s little more than an empty shell of fear and doubt, haunted by his past and unwilling to change. His obsession with finding David is leading his people into ruin, and God has commanded him to give up the throne.

When God speaks, shepherds and kings will hear. But will they obey?
