The Sword of Solomon by Nick Gasaway is an explorative piece relating the story of King David and his son, Solomon in the Bible through a presentation of a “modern-day depiction of good vs. evil.” Fast-paced and imaginative, the question that comes forth from the book is one of choice…will you accept Jesus or reject Him?
First following a Biblical parallel from King David and Solomon, these modern-day characters highlight Solomon, the world’s first trillionaire. Blessed with incredible wisdom and ingenuity, riches and corporate know-how, Solomon is led to focusing on his father’s (David’s) journal. Solomon’s reflection, admiration and perspective of his father give life to David’s accomplishments before he died. Looking back, Solomon vows to keep track of all who helped his father David (just as the King David honored Jonathan’s descendants in Scripture).
With a woven tapestry of descriptive imagery, readers from the beginning are given a glimpse of the immensity of not only Solomon’s wealth and prestige, but his deep desire for the things of God, including his integrity as his father’s son. Much like, what we see in the Bible coming from King David and Solomon (who asked for only wisdom, yet was granted wisdom and riches by the Lord). Solomon is a wise man dedicated to the fulfilling the Lord’s purpose for him.
His father, David, was a military hero, his sword that hung steadfastly on the wall in Solomon’s study, lends to incredible significance, but also as a memorial to his father, David. Intriguing sub-plots of a DNA activated crystal, including End Time scenarios of a one world government, leading to a global economic breakdown leading to a global economy under a global leader sheds light into possible End Time scenarios that gain strength in the end of the book. Inclusion of inspiring and profound scripture verses, memorable sayings garnered from such famous individuals such as: Winston Churchill, Albert Einstein, George S. Patton, also create a vividly clear picture that shares a fascinating and progressive story.
Notably, this book was written to impact others in a profound way…and asks, “Are you ready? Prepare for I am coming soon.” This was spoken to the author, coupled with a dream, gave him the inspiration to writing this book..
Highly recommended for those that like Christian fiction novels that give hope, light and peace in choosing Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. And for all those warriors and military buffs out there…you’ll love this book!

10.0 out of 10.0 stars
Threats to national security and foreign forces that line up set the tone for this fast-paced thrill ride into, The Chosen, the sequel to The Sword of Solomon by Nick Gasaway.
As a backdrop, Sarah (an electronic intelligence monitoring system created by Solomon), bring exhilaration as a phantom chess game ensues with big losses and high stakes for Solomon. In beginning chapters, an unfolding scenario is planned against Big Satan (the U.S.) that is hated by foreign entities. The U.S. now has become a target. Readers will enjoy this Christian fiction novel that focuses on an exciting adventure into the End Times, as technology increases, as nations strive against each other, and demonic forces are battled. An epic adventures ensues as the ones highlighted are the 144,000, Israel and the two prophets…this is an exciting read! Multi-faceted events happen one-by-one that culminate in the Chosen who are to gather the lost until Christ returns.
Again, the author includes memorable witty quotes and scripture verses that make for a great way to begin each chapter. Each offers a foreshadowing of the chapter’s intent. Chosen are 5 individuals; these 5 are sent to gather the lost before the coming of Christ’s return. Guardians are in place for these leaders, offering complete protection, and the Chosen brings a riveting second book that continues the story asking some relevant and pertinent questions. These questions lead to the ultimate question posed in this book, “If you were chosen by God to do a specific task, how would you respond?”
Relating that we don’t know the day or the hour of Christ’s return, his book is an exciting plausible journey into future scenarios relating parallels to the Bible that offer amazing relevance. The book also instigates readiness and a willingness to do the Lord’s will. Inspiring and entertaining, this is another “hold onto your seat” action adventure from the author who creates an amazing cast of characters.
Threats of EMP’s (electric magnetic pulses), pre-emptive nuclear strikes, Russia’s communism, China’s military man power of 2 million, North Korea’s rebellion and swirls of Arab influences, the plausible modern-day parallels create an intriguing look at the world’s platform and the axis of evils that arise and increase, yet righteousness fights back! The Chosen relates God’s End Time victors who carry His sword and the Star of David until the end. This is an uplifting and inspiring novel, encouraging all to be loyal, steadfast and to never give up.
These series created by the author are highly recommended for the next genre of End Time fiction novels that readers should not pass up.
This s a must-read after The Sword of Solomon and is a uniquely memorable insight to today’s events, offering hope to “be ready” in the battles to come.
