The Chronicle of the Angel Mikael: A Record of the Kings of JudahWhat if an angel had been watching all along?The Chronicle of the Angel Mikael is a work of historical fiction that reimagines the rise and fall of the southern kingdom of Judah through the eyes of the archangel Mikael, sent by God to observe and record the reigns of every king from Rehoboam to Zedekiah. Spanning nearly four centuries of triumph, betrayal, faith, and collapse, this novel transforms the ancient biblical chronicle into a deeply human story - one king at a time.
Mikael is not a judge. He is a witness. Scroll in hand, he walks beside kings in their moments of glory and their moments of shame. He watches Asa tear his mother from her throne in the name of God, then turn to physicians instead of prayer in his final years. He stands in the shadows as Hezekiah spreads an enemy's letter before the Lord and weeps against a wall - and sees the sundial's shadow move backward in answer.
He follows Josiah into the Temple as the long-buried Book of the Law is opened for the first time in living memory, and watches a king tear his robes and weep. But he also records the darkness. Jehoram, who put his brothers to the sword. Manasseh, who filled Jerusalem with innocent blood across fifty-five years. Ahaz, who chose an Assyrian altar over the God who offered him a sign. And through it all, one stubborn, heartbreaking thread: God who keeps sending prophets, keeps opening doors, keeps waiting - even as the kings keep turning away.
