The First Book of the Gastar Series: "Act of Redemption"
Description
The once-great city of Gastar stands in ruins following centuries of war by undead monsters driven by an evil temple. Victory cost the people of the knowledge to defeat another enemy, Zermon, ruler of hell, who seeks to extend his realm by annihilation of the few people left. With the help of a sympathetic ancient dragon, volunteer fighters from the past war, and the arrival of a teen assassin named Shevata who is known to Zermon, they combine efforts for the existence of the people of Gastar.
Story Behind The Book
The "I See God' books that I've written were based on real life experiences I have had and how God showed me so much about my life through every single circumstance. He is so real. I believe He wants us to see just how real He is. Whether it's a trial, or a good day, or a moment when we need to make an important decision, He wants us to see that He is there to help us through whatever it is.
