A CHRISTIAN DYSTOPIAN THRILLERIt’s the year 3013. The world didn’t end; it was rebuilt.
Food is rationed. Freedom is an illusion. And salvation now comes with a price.
Michael is starving, hunted, and running out of places to hide. War and famine have stripped the earth bare, while androids and artificial intelligence stand equal under the law. Above it all, one man rises offering peace, provision, and protection to anyone willing to bow.
Most people do.
Michael won’t.
But refusal comes at a cost… and there is nowhere left to run.
Meanwhile, Ivy should be celebrating new life. Instead, she’s handed a sentence. Every child must be implanted with Savior’s chip—marked, monitored, and claimed before their first breath. Her husband is ready to comply, but Ivy, a woman of God, is not. Because once their child is marked, there’s no turning back, but in a world where every move is tracked and every choice is watched, escape is nearly impossible.
When Savior's forces demand their worship, who will Michael and Ivy bow to?
Honestly I would give this infinity stars if I could! This book was absolutely PHENOMENAL!! I honestly don’t see how this book hasn’t blown up!
This is an End Times Dystopian, and I love it! I haven’t seen many Christian Dystopian books (I’m sure there are some out there I just don’t know about yet!) but this was an amazing introduction into this Genre for me!!
It’s fast paced, the characters are amazing and I love how unique each character is! It’s Dual POV, which is great so we can get both perspectives on what’s going on!
This does have some strong themes, and I honestly cried a few times.
I will immediately be going on to the next book in this series once it is out! I can’t wait to see what is in store for these characters and their journey!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 — A Thrilling, God-Glorifying Page-Turner!
I.D. 514 by A. Bean was such a good book—I genuinely could not stop reading it! From the very first chapter, the story grabbed me and refused to let go. A. Bean is such a talented writer, and I absolutely love how she doesn’t shy away from crafting a book that will have your heart racing one moment and praising God the next. It’s rare to find Christian fiction that balances suspense, emotion, and faith so seamlessly, but she did it beautifully.
Ivy was everything—strong, fearless, and so deeply relatable. I loved following her journey and watching her courage shine through every twist and challenge she faced. She’s the kind of character who stays with you long after the final chapter.
My only complaint? I wish it was longer! A. Bean, I need 400+ pages in the next book because this one was just too good. I wasn’t ready to leave the world, the message, or these characters. Consider this my official request for an extended sequel!
If you love Christian suspense with unforgettable characters, a gripping plot, and a message that points you back to God, I.D. 514 is a MUST-read.
For me the writing of this book is a bit all over the place...I couldn't connect with the characters or story enough to enjoy it...if it wasn't for a reading challenge this would have been a dnf for me
