Before The First: The Seven Keys of Hildegard
“In these troubling times, this is a story the world has been waiting for! A spiritual, inspirational and historical-fiction series like nothing before!”
But that’s exactly what THE SEVEN KEYS OF HILDEGARD are! Fans of The Thorn Birds, The DaVinci Code, and The Pillars of the Earth will delight in this uniquely epic series, where church and world history, faith and fiction, collide in a most inspiring and fascinating way. Through 20th century and millennial events, it’s the story of a child, a boy, a man, a son, a brother, a friend, a priest, a bishop, a cardinal, a pope—who, together with a fellow bishop, will confront evil in their church and world, to eventually battle the Antichrist at the last hours of . . . Armageddon.
In this short 60-page synopsis/prequel, “Before The First,” we will briefly meet the heroine of the series, the 12th century mystic and Abbess, Hildegard of Bingen, whose wisdom, teachings on natural health, medicine, music, theology, the environment, and visions shaped her world, and the world eight hundred years in the future, through her "Seven Keys." Most especially are her visions of church and world events, the last pope, the Antichrist and Armageddon, in our times.
Read the Prologue and first six chapters of Book 1, “Of Mercy & Of Death” where the story truly begins in the 20th century starting with the visions of Fatima and the centuries-old battle between the good Brethren and the evil Dark Watch who welcome the arrival of the Antichrist into our times. Read the synopses of the first three books plus reviews of Book 1, Book 2 “Of Love & Of Betrayal” and Book 3 “Of Deception.”
Author David Dupuis discusses the forty-year journey of this series and the amazing ‘sign’ from Hildegard (which he actually photographed, and you can see!) Find out what the future holds for this “epic” series. Follow the links to David’s website and where you can purchase the series thus far, (Books 1, 2, 3 and 4)
