"In this brilliant novel you will be transported to the first rebellion in heaven... and recognize the spiritual battle within each of us - the desire to worship self more than the God who made us." - Karol Ladd, Bestselling author, including "Thrive, Don't Simply Survive" Before ""In the beginning..."" Angels waged war against their Creator. Created: The Devil's Apprentice, Book One of the Created series, tells the Biblical story of the battle for sovereignty in Heaven. A young angel, Malachi, witnesses the rise and fall Lucifer, heaven's "Angel of Light" turned Satan as he wages war against His Creator. Chosen as Lucifer's apprentice, Malachi struggles with his own war of free will and faith. Part adventure story, part parable, this groundbreaking saga offers new insights into why God created anything with a will of its own and why He chose not to sentence Lucifer immediately to Hell after his rebellion, but instead, created our universe and mankind. Bible believers and skeptics will rethink their positions on Creation as they travel from the heights of the Holy Mount to the depths of Hell with Malachi and the heavenly angels. In a fresh interpretation of the spiritual battle for Heaven, Created: The Devil's Apprentice introduces Rogers' series based on meticulous Biblical scholarship for a fictionalized retelling of the rebellion of Lucifer and his fall from God's grace.
