His very name evokes a sense of awe and
admiration--Daniel, the young Jew with
the fortitude to be God s person in the
midst of a pagan court...and the prophet
whom God chose to pull back the veil of
the future and reveal judgment and salva-
tion to come.
Now, bestselling author Carole Carlson
uses her literary brush to paint a vivid por-
trait of this fascinating man, combining the
breathtaking color of ancient Babylon with
truths as relevant to modern life as the
need for faithful people in high places.
"Why a novel about Daniel?" asks the
author. "Because I believe he is a man for
our times. He lived an uncompromising
life in the midst of a pagan society. He held
high government positions, respected his
superiors, but kept his witness intact so
that even his enemies could find no fault in
him. He is noble, intriguing, fascinating,
and admirable."
Using the historical and biblical basis for
the life of Daniel, the author weaves excite-
ment, court intrigue, pageantry, and hero-
ism into the fictional narrative of this re-
markable man s life. All the familiar, well-
loved stories about Daniel are here--the
fiery furnace, the lions den, Nebuchad-
nezzar s dreams, Belshazzar s feast. And
around this well-known framework the
author weaves a tapestry of detail so vivid
you can see and hear the raucous camel
caravans, glimpse the pagan grandeur of
the Babylonian court, and sense the politi-
cal and romantic intrigues.
