Beginning before Noah is born and continuing on until the world is washed clean, Flood is a stunning biblical saga about family and forgiveness in a world filled with pain. With deep character development, lyrical prose, and heart-stopping twists, McPherson puts a fantasy twist on one of the most well-known stories of all time. Nearly two thousand years after Adam and Eve eat death into existence, the flavor still echoes in their descendants' tongues. War is sweeping the world from the iron throne of a man who calls himself the God-King. Caught in the crucible is a young family broken by loss and carried along by the prophecies spoken over the infant boy who fits in their hands. Will little Noah grow to be the savior the world needs? Or will bending his bow come easier than bending his knee to the God who holds his destiny?
