Book
Heart of a Lion
First published 2002
Young Noah grows up within a protected village, but encounters a wider world marked by violence, appetite and spiritual compromise. His struggle to remain faithful prepares him for the divine command that will separate his household from the society around them.
The novel expands the Genesis flood narrative into a story of temptation, marriage and obedience. Dialogue, chronology and daily life are imaginative reconstructions, and the book’s presentation of the flood belongs to biblical fiction rather than independently established ancient history.
