Jerusalem is under siege. More than a thousand miles to the west, Tourec grows restless, tormented by guilt and sorrow. He is offered a chance to leave the safety of the monastery and journey to Jerusalem to defend Christendom's holy places, but it is a choice that will weigh heavy on his heart. And what he discovers when he reaches that turbulent city will light the spark that one day will engulf the entire world.
The Jerusalem Chronicles follows the journey that takes Tourec Beauchamp from a humble monastery in Italy to the cataclysmic battleground of Jerusalem, the Holy City. As the world descends into Satanic madness, Tourec and his brethren rise up to defend that which is sacred, but the cost will be far greater than anyone could imagine...
MARK CARVER writes edgy, intense Christian fiction that illuminates the truth of the Gospel while not shying away from dark and challenging topics. He also writers lighter, more inspirational stories under a pen name to avoid confusing his readers. Mark lives with his family in north Georgia, where he enjoys art, literature, nature, and gardening.
It gets straight to the point of the story about how it's okay to feel fear despite excitement and the willingness to do something for a cause, even by the pivotal moment that was hinted at in the Age of Appolyon series, Tourec's willingness to go and fight, it's revealed what his thoughts were in that moment. A nice touch of humanity in this incredible backstory.
