Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Centuries before the magi arrived in Bethlehem, a prophecy sets a young magus on his path . . .Following his vision of the coming Messiah, the prophet Daniel calls forth a select group of men who will count down the calendar until the arrival of Israel's promised king. Centuries later, as the day draws near, Myrad, a young magi acolyte, flees for his life when his adoptive father and others are slain by a ruthless Parthian queen. Equipped with very little, in haste Myrad escapes the city and, searching for a way to hide from the soldiers scouring the trade routes, tries to join the caravan of the merchant Walagash. The merchant senses that Myrad is keeping secrets, but when the young man proves himself a valuable asset, an epic journey filled with peril, near captures, and dangerous battles begins. With every day that passes, the calendar creeps closer to the coming Messiah. And over everything shines the dream of a star that Myrad can't forget, and the promise that the world will never be the same.'Carr retells the story of the Magi in this bustling biblical adventure . . . . Myrad's divine vision of the star and his arduous trek battling his own physical problems to pay homage to the Messiah capture the majesty of biblical narratives and will appeal to Christians well versed in scripture.'--Publishers Weekly'Patrick Carr brings us a captivating tale in The End of the Magi. Based on the Holy Bible, he weaves a fictional tale of the adventures of a group of magi from the east looking for the Messiah. Myrad is a strong main character even though he doesn't see himself as strong. He has great character traits and these help him find triumph over tragedy. . . . The End of the Magi is a great holiday read and gives us much to think about in our journey to know God better.'--Fresh Fiction'Fighting magi, tense trades, ambush attacks, chases, escapes, true love, and many real pending miracles (not just the inevitable arrival in Bethlehem) make The End of the Magi a potential classic for Christmas and beyond. Like Carr's other heroes, Myrad feels relatable, courageously flawed, uncertain yet ambitious. His world also comes across as utterly fantastical even while grounded in research.'--Lorehaven Magazine'The End of the Magi is a breath of fresh air into an often-recycled genre filled with the same stories. By deviating from the established tradition, Carr manages to pen a thoroughly original and exciting story that nonetheless ties into the biblical narrative. A fun and enjoyable read!'--Life is Story'Through traveling all over the tumultuous lands of the Bible, the novel deftly immerses the reader into them. . . . At the conclusion all of the issues posed by the prophets over 500 years are answered in a satisfying and inspirational manner by the book's author. This is one of those novels that succeeds in delivering the sometimes dry and often confusing stories, people and lands of the New and Old Testaments to vibrant life. . . . Great historical and biblical fiction.'--Historical Novel Review.…
