Altered Vows by Jeff Krogstad is a deeply atmospheric and spiritually charged story that blends faith, betrayal, and supernatural warfare into a riveting journey of redemption. ⚔️🔥
Mishal’s story is both heartbreaking and inspiring—his fall from grace, exile, and ultimate confrontation with forces beyond comprehension make this an unforgettable read. Krogstad’s writing is vivid and immersive; you can feel the weight of the wilderness, the tension of hidden evils, and the quiet strength of a man holding onto faith when everything else has been stripped away.
The book’s exploration of light versus darkness—both within the world and the soul—is powerful and thought-provoking. Fans of Christian fantasy, epic spiritual warfare, and stories like This Present Darkness or The Screwtape Letters will be captivated.
A haunting, beautifully written tale about courage, calling, and the cost of truth in a world of deception.
