There are many who would like to study the Book of Revelation, but are intimidated by the scope, majesty, and terror that comprise the Apostle John's vision on the Isle of Patmos. The Book of Eli, a work of historical fiction, is the diary of a friend whoi was incarcerated with John. As John has his fantastic visions, he talks about what he is seeing with his friend Eli, and the two of them talk about what it all means. The result is a work of fiction that brings the Book of Revelation to life and makes it accessible to readers who want to learn more about the Bible's final, majestic book.
