Tyce Greyson is a journalist who investigates the paranormal and the supernatural. Being a man of destiny, commissioned to carry forward Heaven’s countervailing measures, he is constantly caught up in apocalyptic visions in which dangers confront him at every juncture.
His latest fixation is a Middle Eastern scene from antiquity where a man with a star-shaped scar, who he believes to be Judas Iscariot, is seen taking instruction from Jesus and then disappearing at the Last Supper.
Now married to Essie—a Jew whose father is head of Maglan, the most clandestine of Israel’s Mossad—Tyce is called on to find Israel’s Messiah by a rabbinic council. But as it becomes clear that would-be world masters have catatonic plans to bring everyone on the planet under their control, he receives additional, supernatural messages from God.
Will Tyce be successful on his mission to forewarn Israelites of the one who will deceive them?

I read all 3 books of the series and while I enjoyed the fact that Terry James continually brought out references to bible scripture and related it to what was going on in the book, I found all 3 books a little difficult to follow. I for one, felt the editing was lacking and sentence structure could have been better. It caused me to have to read and re-read sentences several times before getting the gist of what he was saying. Since the author is blind, I can understand this being a problem, so I would recommend a more hands-on editing in the future. Quite often wrong words were used as well. I found myself re-writing the sentences in my head, so they made more sense lol! The story line was interesting overall, but as a Christian, I found the instances of the main character going in and out of controlled visions a little hard to track. I know these are fiction books which makes that aspect appeal to a larger audience. However, I feel it went a little too far with the visions lasting for weeks and months at a time, involving many characters and events, only to find that none of it was real. Interesting take on end times events though, and good read overall!
Reading Messiah: And the Prince Who Shall Come reminded me of the Left Behind Series, although the characters are different.
Tyce Grayson, is thrown in the middle of the last days of biblical prophecy. On his adventure by supernatural time travel, he is given glimpses of the coming future. Tyce is a strong character, brave, and diligent in learning the truth of God's word.
The story is fairly fast paced, filled with biblical scripture, and descriptions of the end times made the story come alive. The ending was surprising.
I received an ARC from the publisher and voluntarily choose to review it.
Very difficult to follow. Bounces back and forth in time. A little too "supernatural" and science fiction like. End times prophecy is spectacular in scope without adding walking through wall experiences.
Almost 5* but ended oddly. It just sort of stopped with some things left unresolved and no indication as to whether or not another book would be forthcoming.
