Son of Perdition: 1 (Chronicles of Brothers)

There's just something very special about this book. To know God's story with this insight is so refreshing and reviving. A MUST MUST READ!!

Excellent read for believers. Ties up well with the Revelations. The Chronicles of Brothers is a true glimpse of the past, present of the future in heaven and in earth. Read and be prepared!

Awesome book.

Full of suspense & drama. Love the characters. Unexpected twist at the end. Can't wait to start reading the next book in the series.

This is the third book in the series by Wendy Alec that I have read. It is by far the easiest book to read and it is quite superb in its story line and details of characters and places in the World. The history, plot and imagination are great. This is what makes the book truly spectacular. In regards to the truth and prophecy of the book, I have faith that there is an End of Days and that Jesus will come and defeat Satan as shown in the book of Revelation in the Bible. Wendy has made an amazing comparison of spiritual, religious and Worldy politics into one story that shows the history of the Biblical scripture. I believe that God has given her his Word to release information to the people of this World so that we can understand the 'truth' or rationale behind the politics that we see everyday. We need to make sense of it all, especially when it is hidden and deceived by the evil powers of the World. It is shown clearly in this book, that the spiritual evil powers exist in human form and they are controlling the World through their plans and politics. To go through the story would take away the meaning as it is for the reader to understand each character and his role in the politics and history that is being unravelled. With additional quotes at the end of the book and some papers on the deceit of government from the Cuban missile crisis in the 1960s, this book shows tactics of evil and their mindset against the good. From black ops, to false flags, to conspiracies, it makes the real World more understandable and sensible. The truth is out there. Just look for it. This book is a credit to life. It is a credit to God and his mysterious works for the love of his people. It is shown here in this book. A great work again.

I loved the first two books so I don't know why it's taken me this long to read this one.I felt this book had a much darker tone than the other books. I think this was because most of the book is set in our lifetime, with events and places we can immediately connect with. This gave the events a much darker and personal theme which left me feeling a lot of trepidation of what was coming (and to come). Especially considering how these events were re-written to suggest even darker plots.Most of the story takes place on Earth so there is less time spent with the angelic/fallen. I loved seeing the ethereal side of things from the first two books, so I greatly missed that. I understood why--the events on Earth were vastly important and us not seeing them leaves us also guessing what plans are taking place.As always I love the amount of thought Wendy Alec puts into these. So many complicated stories taking place, how they each impact the events of the present and future, and the clever way she withholds information to leave you questioning the real intent.I also just love how these books make me think about faith. What faith and redemption mean, and if humanity can actually achieve it or if we're all just doomed to hell no matter what we do. I love these kind of books because they make you think. Even if all you're reading is one person's perspective, you might find something that challenges what you believe (or don't believe) in. And in these books in particular, which include the views of the angels and the fallen, I end up thinking about them too, rather than just the human perspective.

It must be said: Best Novel Ever. There, I said it. Having read this book 3 times already, I am thrilled to FINALLY have it on my Kindle!If you loved the first book, The Fall of Lucifer--heck, even if you hated it--you'll love this one. The slow, brooding evil that was felt throughout 'Fall' is amplified here. In this story, instead of angels, we have 3 earthly brothers that mirror the heavenly ones, but unlike the first book, all of the human brothers are imperfect, and (you guessed it) one of them is the Antichrist. Even though it's obvious from the get-go who the Son of Perdition is, it's still an exciting journey making the discovery though the characters' eyes.The way that Wendy Alec weaves her "faction" story together is nothing short of magical. It's biblical, and any fellow Christian can see that Wendy actually understands what she's writing about. When she borrows from the Bible, you can tell there's respect for the source material.Although, if you're someone who's turned off by Christian novels, don't be afraid of this one. This is written for a general audience (I think non-Christians will enjoy the book more, actually). The characters are real and relatable, with all their imperfections glowing clear and visible. I was surprised to find that the human characters were even more interesting than the angelic ones!The ending on this one is a perfect teaser for the next installment -- Congratulations, Wendy; you've made me completely obsessed with getting my hands on the next book!If you hate cliffhanger endings that make you shout, "No way! No way! No way!" --stay away from this book. I happen to like those kinds of endings, which is why I was shouting.

the story is good. mental pictures of Heaven and Hell are great. I was overwelmed many times as i read all 4 books.But the Biblical accuracy is totally off in every area of the books. i will list a few. Lucifier was not an archangel. the angels that fell with him and were cast out were never allowed to repent and be restored to Heaven. Lucifier would never been allowed to spit in Jesus face in Heaven before or after he concered the cross. the Rapture is put at MID Tribulation which is false. the first 3 1/2 years or 42 months were completly skipped because of ths point. Angels are immortal but they loose there heads in battle. she said that Angels entered the herd of swine. Angels can't possess anything because they have a body. the disembodied or evil spirits or demons if you will can possess these went into the swine this is every thing that died in the flood and the pre Adamite world sa mentioned in Peter. lucifier was the 5th cherib around the throne before his fall. book 2 page 284 the Angels do not walk by faith, they are already in His presence thats is also why there is no redemption for them. we walk by faith ( belief in things unseen ) Satan did not demand of God that Jesus fast 40 days before his temptation. Jesus did this for power from the throne. the list could go on. THIS FOLLOWES THROUGH ALL 4 BOOKS. THE BOOKS STILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONVICT THE SOUL FOR JESUS. IT PAINTS BEAUTIFUL PICTURES OF HEAVEN ALSO ALARMING PICTURES OF HELL I WOULD STILL HAVE MY UNSAVED LOVED ONES READ THIS SERIES. MELVIN SIMS
