Daniel: Exile in Babylon, by Brian Godawa

Today, guest host Luke Taylor speaks with Brian Godawa about his new book Daniel: Exile in Babylon, available from Warrior Poet publishers.

You know the biblical story of Daniel. But you’ve never experienced it like this.

A breathtaking supernatural epic adventure of one of the most beloved heroes of the faith—retold with biblical and historical fidelity.

Daniel is young, sharp, full of faith, and newly captive to King Nebuchadnezzar.

But Babylon doesn’t want Daniel’s life—it wants his allegiance.

In the House of the Tablet, he’s trained to speak the empire’s language and learn its “wisdom,” along with fellow captive Jews, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah.

As long as they don’t notice the surrender happening one small choice at a time.

But the pressure isn’t only from priests and officials. The high priest’s son and his bully gang make Daniel a target, daring him to break and be made a eunuch.

Far away in Jerusalem, Ariela, the young girl Daniel loves, is fighting her own dangerous battle—as a secret messenger for Jeremiah the prophet.

Will she ever see her Daniel again? Will Jeremiah’s predictions of destruction be her own?

Above it all, another conflict rages: archangels move in secret, Watchers masquerade as gods of Babylon, Persia, and Greece, while Yahweh remains sovereign over kingdoms that think they rule the world.

Written by respected Christian author and best-seller Brian Godawa, this series is perfect for readers of C.S. Lewis, Tolkien, Narnia, Lord of the Rings, Ted Dekker, and Frank Peretti.

This novel is the first book of The Daniel Trilogy.
