Eli is the second book in a trilogy that began five years ago with the book Divinity Dawns. It follows the journey of the hero Cephas as he discards his past and travels to Saudi Arabia in pursuit of his inheritance. Things are not as they appear to be for Cephas as he soon discovers. He is at the fringes of uncertainty in his personal life and relationship. Broken and despondent, camaraderie and his faith in God are his only hope for survival in the Kingdom. His Christian faith is put to the test in a vibrant Muslim community compounded by the instability of the war in the Middle East. However his odyssey into the Kingdom is only the beginning of a mysterious path that is waiting to be unraveled.
A warm recount of events. It is a story that takes you to new heights as you ask yourself how you would cope in the hero's position. There is humor and an honest interpretation of events in the Middle East post Iraq war. The visions are clerical,intriguing and the one on one dialogue a revelation.
I learned that we can only be who we are if we are honest with ourselves
