Rate this book
From Amazon best-selling author R.D. Brady, the latest edge of your seat thriller in the Belial Rebirth series, told with her unique blend of ancient history, religious texts and pulse pounding action.

The violence in Antarctica was only the beginning...


A new enemy has appeared on the world stage. Gedeon Malik and his followers move with the speed and power of the Fallen, but they are not Fallen. The Fallen no longer exist. Delaney McPhearson and countless others sacrificed a great deal to make sure of that.

But Laney fears this threat is just as grave as the one posed by Elisabeta. And it looks as if the danger is only increasing, not just to Laney, but to the ever-expanding group of people she cares for. Keeping everyone safe seems an impossible task.But Laney and her team have done the impossible before.

Those successes, though, were when most of Laney’s allies had the abilities of the Fallen that levelled the playing field against a highly powered enemy. Now, only Laney has the innate ability to go up against Gedeon.

And she knows she alone will not be enough.

The only option that might turn the tide is a radical one. But will it work or just take more of their players off the field? And if it does work, will even that be enough?Or after everything Laney and her crew have been through together, have they finally run into one enemy that they simply can’t defeat?

Stuff and nonsense

I have read each and every book in this series. I do love the story lines, but I have to say that the "biblical facts" is such nonsense that if a weak Christian read these books he or she could be ruined.
If it would only be in the book, ok. But how in the world does the author get the nerve to negate the Word of God in the commentary after the book. Jesus never married because He was the holy Son of God, sent here to do His Fathers will, to preach the kingdom, suffer and die for our sins, and rise from the dead to be our living Savior. He sits at the right hand of the Father, making intercession for us now. I mean if you're going to make stuff up in the book, but to drag the absolute heresy into the conversation at the end just makes the writer look sad and certainly no researcher into true biblical Christianity. There is a fallen angel named Satan and he will meet him if he believes half of what he writes.

Nooooo...hate reading that last page

Well another AMAZING Belial book, this time #3. What can I say about this one? It has everything you want! Seriously. Laney I swear is the ultimate of everything good & beautiful in the world. And Drake! Alive! I will now be DYING until book 4 comes out. Not soon enough! Ms. R.D. Brady never disappoints. This entire series is my #1 favorite of all time, ever. That says everything.

Belial Restored

Another good entry in the series. The characters remain interesting and exciting. Plenty of action and suspense. Without giving much anything, I like the way some of the characters are starting to interact, especially Molly. I was lucky with the first series in that it was already published so I was able in binge my way through it without stopping. My only complaint is that now I have to wait for book Four in this series. Recommended.

Wow

I got hooked on this series and absolutely love it. Being Catholic and having this series largely focused on religious aspects makes me want to step back and question many things, just to know more. I can not wait for where this is going next, but sure hope it includes many more books!!

Outstanding as always

Amazing continuation of the story. Even though so much could be guessed in advance, the story was just as satisfying. Returning faces were wonderful to hear about, and JW is a hero in my books for still trying with Danny who comes out of this one not smelling like a rose at all. Now, when is the next one due out?

Wonderful read

Brady does a great job of re introducing characters. Always a different little twist and a glint of what may come next. Just makes you want the next installment to vet here that much faster!
I think I will have to go back and reread the first Belgian series to get reacquainted with characters again.

17 and waiting for 18

I found the 1st book by accident, and simply couldn't stop. The story is so "real", so very believable. The facts at the end of each book are a plus as well. I plan on getting the books in print so that I can better share them. R.D.Brady you are GREAT!!! Thank you.

Very excited that the Belial are back to kicking butt. Disappointed in how much introspection we get from Laney in this book, though. The whole thing is basically an inner monologue with bursts of activity. There were a couple of cool reveals and some new relationships to explore. Looking forward to the next installment and figuring out if God has a side.

She grabbed me again

Brady has once again grabbed my attention at the beginning of a book and never let go. Every time I finish one of her books, I always have the same complaint. And that is that the next one isn't available yet. Arg!

I really have enjoyed the entire Belial series. Can't wait for the next one. The mix of real factual history, supernatural and religious events and personalities is fascinating. R.D weaves these stories so well!

So glad the series has been continued

As always, RD creates a great stored line and reintroduces so many amazing historically based characters from the Old Testament they take on a life of their own, leaping off the pages into your heart and your imagination. It’s always disappointing to reach the end of every single novel in this series, it’s that good.

great

The book has plot twists and characters that you can relate to easily. The information given about the early Catholic Church is true from my own research.
