The Fall of Lucifer: Chronicles of Brothers, Time Before Time Series, Book 1

In this world where people's intelects have been tainted to tend to believe fiction over fact due to television, I tend to hesitate when someone says that a fiction book changed their life.However, it was not through reactions to this book that I was drawn to it, but it was through an interview with Wendy Alec that I decided to take my precious time and attempt to read this book THE FALL OF LUCIFER.What most people do not remember or know is that The author of the Harry Potter Series claimed that she was dictated the Harry Potter series in her kitchen and put them in a vault to release over time (I heard her say this in person on one of the morning shows in the US- it was not through other people's recounts of what she said). The books are so "dangerously close to reality" according to many who are high up in the wiccan realm that they have had many high level wiccans very upset that this book is putting the most powerful spiritual concepts into the hands of unskilled and inexperienced children who can so easily abuse them. The wiccans had felt the need to develop counseling lines in England to handle the enormous requests that these *fiction* books have engendered toward the wiccan religion.I always find it amazing how people can think nothing of this kind of claim about a book or book series when it comes to a book like Harry Potter, but when someone else says it about a book that is about biblically based things, it is put down terribly.Wendy Alec said that this book flowed so easily that it was like it was being written through her and not BY her. It was not the claim, but her manner that drew me to this book.When I came here to Amazon, and read some of the reviews, I knew that I had to try it.The Fall of Lucifer is a fiction book which takes place through the other side of the looking glass so to speak. Instead of being on earth viewing the heavenly kingdom and the pre-adamic wars in heaven, the reader is looking through the other side of the looking glass from the heavenly perspective- and then down at earth when it is created.This kind of perspective is very hard to pull off successfullly. As I read this book, many times I shook my head in disbelief at the way that this book ebbed and flowed like it had a life of its own- as if it were a story being told by someone with inside knowledge of what really happened.In essence, this story starts with the angels and the Triune Godhead living in the first heaven. It describes the life that they had together, and then shows how a seed of evil began to take root in Lucifer- one of the three brothers on the angelic trio- Gabriel, Michael, and Lucifer.Each was created to fulfill an important position, but they lived in harmony until this seed of evil began to germinate in Lucifer. It had to do with the creation of man to be close with Jah (God the Father) and the jealousy that began to take root in Lucifer.A glimpse of the pre-adamic dwelling of Christos (known to western culture as Jesus) in the first heaven and his standing there is very insightful. The great war in heaven which involved 1/3 of the angels choosing to follow Lucifer was effectively portrayed- not everyone wanted to go , but they were confused at their loyalties, having never been confronted with these types of choices until that point.The origins of hell and the original purpose are put out for the readers inspection. The creation of Man and Woman and their relationship to the earth as owning the deed there lays out well the reason that Lucifer (name changed to satan to indicate his desire to be king of his own domain- now hell) HAD to get Adam and Eve to bow to him INSTEAD of Jah (God the Father) is very well laid out.The whole reasoning behind the Jesus visiting earth, His death and ressurection is explained in a way that I have never seen before in any book- ficton or otherwise- all in one place.The book leaves off with a sequel in the offing, but does not leave the reader feeling lost.My impressions of this book over all are- the beginning is very hard to follow for me because of all of the different unusual names there- I had a hard time keeping them all straight. Eventually, I managed, but I will be reading it again to make it easier this time.I found that reading this book went quickly and kept me reading- I rarely get to read books anymore. I had to put it down several times in the course of a few days, but it was easy to pick up and resume without having to read it all over again, another big plus.Every book has their head scratching moments, and this book had a couple, but for the most part, I found it profoundly insightful, and like I sad at the beginning of this review, it was like the story took on a life of its own and I could feel it weaving itself around me as I read this book. Evil suddenly takes on a whole new level of perspective as does the constant battles on all fronts to snuff out Christianity and Judiasm through each generation. Every attempt to destroy Christianity carries the trademark of satan each time behind the faces that are used to try to accomplish this task.Many questions and curiosities that I have had filed for years suddenly made sense. It has affected me deeply and I am amazed that someone like Wendy Alec could write a book with this much intensity and accuracy- but then again, like JKRawlings once did- Wendy Alec did not assert that she wrote it alone........This is one of the highest impacting books that I have read in a very long time. I can not recommend it highly enough.

I gave this book five stars because even though it is fiction, to me it was as if so many answers about heaven before the creation of earth were answered. What life for the angels, especially Lucifers life was like. What life in heaven in general was like. The vivid details and imagery about heaven were lush, the details about how the prototype of mankind :Adam was crafted all the way down to the complex genetic design, it was incredible. How the angels pondered and pondered how to save mankind back in the days of noah because they knew how much God cared for us, yet they went back and back and checked and double checked and triple checked for a way to save mankind and finally when all hoped was lost they finally found noah, then finding a way to help him through the flood was another challenge in itself, it was great to read from the perspective of the angels executing their plans for noah, in the bible we read from the perspective of noah.I was not sure if I wanted to buy this book or not, I read through the amazon reviews, and finally decided to take a chance, this was my first fiction christian novel. I did not regret my purchase, I ordered book 2,3 and 4 since I liked this one so much. Its seven books in all, only 4 books are in print so far. I am currently reading book 2 The first Judgement, I'll write my review when I finish that one as well.The first 30 or so pages of the book, I did not find so exciting, it was in the future, revelations, a glimpse into the ending of the whole cosmic storyline. Once that was done, the story went back to the beginning of it all which is what I was looking forwards to reading about and it was great, I could not stop reading, once I finished one page I was hungry for the next until I finished the book, and at the ending I was left even more curious thus resulting in me ordering book 2 to continue the story.I recommend this book for all people, if you believe in the bible, dont take this book as gospel but rather as what could have happened with Lucifer and his angelic host. If you dont believe in the bible, its still a great read with a good storyline with interesting characters. Once faithful brothers and then in the end fighting on opposing sides. A tale of a forgotten son, felt abandoned, envy, war, banishment and resentment. Guilt and sadness turned into bitterness and rage finally resulting into overwhelming pride which leads to the cosmic paradigm shift.

I was very excited when I started this book. The premise was captivating, the characters interesting and the writing very detailed. I could imagine each beautiful place and person. But then things seemed to get very confusing. I had trouble following all the different characters and who was doing what and who was aligned with whom. I’ve had to set it aside several times and now just finished Ken Follet’s A Column of Fire, and after keeping up all of those characters and plots felt I could get through and finish this one. I do plan on reading the next book. I’m still interested in the characters and what happens to them but I’m going into it knowing it’s like to be some work to get through.

Fantastic read, couldn't put it down

Das Buch ist sehr empfehlenswert. Es ist sehr spannende geschrieben und ist gut zu lesen. Vielen Dank für die schnelle Lieferung und den guten Artikel.

Well written, interesting story line. Wording was challenging with the use of many words we were not sure of. But as a whole, we're sucked in.

Super Roman.Interessantes Thema.Sehr gut und spannend geschrieben.Schade, dass es diese Reihe (außer Sohn der Verdammnis) nicht auf deutsch gibt!!!!

Amazing book so beautifully descriptive and so honouring of the Lord! Loved it 😃
