Publisher's Summary

Two Epic Storytellers and a Clash of Ancient Cultures

A novel of spiritual warfare, dragons, the first Chinese emperor, the Great Wall of China and the tower of Babel.

Brian Godawa, best-selling author of ancient historical fantasy, teams up with Charlie Wen, co-founder/Head of Visual Development for Marvel Studios, to tell a fantasy action-adventure romance rooted in the ancient history of China and the Bible.

East Eats West

It’s 220 BC. The ancient Western Empire is crumbling.

In a desperate bid to save his throne, the Greek king over Babylon sends his son, Antiochus, a dishonored warrior, into the mysterious land of the Far East to capture a mythical creature that will give him absolute power: a dragon.

What Antiochus finds is beyond his imagination: A mad emperor on a quest of immortality, a beautiful concubine with whom he falls in love, a mysterious power of magic and technology, and the true nature of the dragon that protects this world.

The Dragon King is the first novel of the historical fantasy series, Chronicles of the Watchers that charts the influence of spiritual powers behind the history of earthly rulers.

Great story telling of the Eastern context

Godawa did a great job in creating the setting along with the events leading to that context. It takes plenty of research, and the author will go to great lengths to align this with his creative writing skill.

Of the chronicles of the Watchers, Jezebel is more indepth when it comes to telling the spiritual narrative. In that book, he creates two parallel worlds (the earthen and spiritual) that ran simultaneously.

Here, very little, if any, work is lent to the spirit realm. It is a book from the Chronicles of the Watchers. But it doesn't read like a book from that series. The story is told entirely from the human perspective, and none from the spiritual forces. This is the only book he has written where there are no archangels.

Godawa has another book coming out for this series. And I hope we'll see more of the characters that were active in the spirit realm.
