JOSIAH'S KINGDOM Trilogy
The Divine Dawning - Book I
by Glory Keverne
(Author of the internationally acclaimed 'A MAN CANNOT CRY')
Set in Colonial Africa in the forties through the life of one man, The Divine Dawning captures the early stages of the epic soul journey we are all destined to make. Embroiled in breath-taking adventure, metaphysical mystery and lessons in elusive love, Daniel Lasky, a 27-year-old Great White hunter, takes the reader on an unflinching expedition through humanity's traditional minefields of sin and suffering. Famous for shooting lion, the Apache trained tracker is commissioned to find the grave of a Christian minister last seen in Northern Rhodesia 30 years before. What he finds in a lost valley of the cursed Shinshika mountains, challenges the very basis of Orthodox religion, containing the power to transform humanity and save the planet. The revelation shatters Daniel's cynical world view, triggering his own, dimly discerned, Divine Dawning..
