Akabe of Siphra, I have brought your enemies low and lifted you from the dirt. Against his wishes and desires, Akabe Garric has been chosen by his people to be king. A warrior at heart, he’d never dreamed of such a swift, unexpected rise to power. Determined to prove his worth to the citizens of Munra and honor his Creator, Akabe undertakes a monumental task: to rebuild the Infinite’s Holy House in Siphra. Only this I ask: Restore My temple and let Me dwell again among the people. Akabe soon discovers that the land he needs is held by the Thaenfalls, known Atea-worshipers who will give up their claim only if he marries into their line. Though he seeks direction from the Infinite, his pleas are met with silence. Frustrated, Akabe makes an impulsive decision, sweeping his nation into a lethal storm that threatens his plans for the temple. As questions of love and faith become tangled with lies, ancient feuds, and treacherous plots, can Akabe, his mysterious queen, and his trusted friends Ela and Kien Lantec find the Infinite’s path . . . or will they fail as so many others before? Will your faith hold strong when I am silent? Child, can you be My king?

R. J. Larson is the author of numerous devotionals featured in publications such as Women's Devotional Bible and Seasons of a Woman's Heart. She lives in Colorado Springs, Colorado, with her husband and their two sons. Prophet marked her debut in the fantasy genre.
Larson continues her exciting inspirational Books of the Infinite fantasy series, following Prophet (2012). Siphra remains an unstable kingdom with Ela Roeh prophesying alongside the newly chosen king, Akabe. To fulfill their destinies, the two must engage in physical battles against mortal and spiritual enemies. When Ela and Akabe’s queen, Caitria, find themselves in the hands of the enemy, Akabe and Kien, Ela’s husband, must defend against impending attacks while worrying about their wives’ safety. In turn, Ela and Caitria fall into a seemingly inextricable bind as they are led into the palace of their worst adversary. Larson makes the fantasy genre thrilling even for readers who wouldn’t normally venture into mystical realms. Though the battles waged resemble tales from the Old Testament, there is no preaching here, merely a compelling story of good versus evil in which good is sure to triumph. --Carolyn Richard
