What if the People of Old were right?

I think the Christians of today are looking for something that’s not coming.

By John Irvin

If you’ve known me for any number of years or been following my Author Journey, you’ll know from light mentions, I am a man of faith. I was born a Christian when I was five years old.

I’ve always felt religion is something we should be wary of. Most unbelievers who do not share my faith, do not understand this statement.

But I believe my Christianity is a relationship with my Creator.

The original definition of “a Christian” is “little Christ.” Meaning the followers of Christ were like Him or sought to become like Him.

But, in this postmodern world we live in, I believe most denominations and most religions have fallen so far away from the true teachings of Christ.

But, I’m here to promote a book. This book is called The Church in the Coming Great Tribulation. You see, this book is important to me, because it has played an important part in, what I believe, my shedding of a lie I was taught all the time.

So many Christians in my circles growing up taught that there is this time period called “the Tribulation” that’s going to shower down God’s wrath on this sin-cursed world. But I was told that all believers will be “raptured” out so they wouldn’t have to go through such a tough time.

This book was one of the many books that opened my eyes to the truth.

Whether you are a believer or not, I think this will be an eye opener for what’s coming. If you read it and we’re wrong, you’ll have spent just a few dollars and be none the worse. If you read and we’re right, you’ll recognise the events that will occur and see that Christ is true.

So, please, if you haven’t bought one book from all the ones I’ve promoted, buy this one!

Here’s the link:

THE CHURCH IN THE COMING GREAT TRIBULATION by STEVE URICK.

Since I’m sharing the links with Amazon, I want to give their book description:

“Christians today are widely being taught that the next event on the prophetic calendar is the any moment and signless Rapture of the Church. Thus, the bride of Christ will not have to go through the Great Tribulation. But is that what the Bible truly teaches?


The Church in the Coming Great Tribulation examines the biblical doctrine of the Rapture and its timing in relation to the Day of the Lord, as taught by Jesus and the apostles.


If you have questions about the Rapture, or doubt some of the things that are being said by modern-day prophecy teachers, this timely work sheds light on the subject and will help to clear up any confusion you might have.”

Do NOT miss out on the urban fantasy thriller: THE CHURCH IN THE COMING GREAT TRIBULATION.

Kate Daniels returns to fight the Supernaturals

When her friend is almost killed, things take on a whole new meaning to Kate…

By John Irvin

After finishing up the sequel in the Kate Daniels series, I immediately ran to my local BooksAMillion bookstore and bought book three, Magic Strikes.

Knowing what to expect (by the way, that’s pure awesomeness), I started reading and found myself yanked back into the Post-Shift world of Atlanta, Georgia.

Kate and Curran are still going back and forth, but something’s developing there.

I was gripping the corners of the book as I tensely held on for the ride.

If you’ve started the Kate Daniels series, you will not want to miss out on this third installment.

If you haven’t started the Kate Daniels series, what’s wrong with you? Just teasing, but, seriously, you need to start collecting this series like I did.

Now that I’ve read all ten books, I feel like I’m experience in the Post-Shift Magic world and close friends with the heroine and hero.

You can be too.

Here’s the link:

MAGIC STRIKES by ILONA ANDREWS.

Since I’m sharing the links with Amazon, I want to give their book description:

“When magic strikes and Atlanta goes to pieces, it’s a job for mercenary Kate Daniels in this thrilling novel in the #1 New York Times bestselling series.

Drafted into working for the Order of Merciful Aid, mercenary Kate Daniels has more paranormal problems than she knows what to do with these days. And in Atlanta, where magic comes and goes like the tide, that’s saying a lot.

But when Kate’s werewolf friend Derek is discovered nearly dead, she must confront her greatest challenge yet. As her investigation leads her to the Midnight Games—an invitation only, no holds barred, ultimate preternatural fighting tournament—she and Curran, the Lord of the Beasts, uncover a dark plot that may forever alter the face of Atlanta’s shapeshifting community…”

Werewolves are Not the Only Supernaturals!

When Elena Michaels discovers her belief that witches, sorcerers, vampires, and half-demons do not exit is false, she’s in trouble

By John Irvin

Have you ever seen the show, Bitten? Your in a dark fantasy world where werewolves are real. There’s a unique twist to the story: Elena is the ONLY female werewolf.

But, having watched the first season of the show, I did not know the world had other supernaturals in it. So when I picked up Book 2, Stolen, I was in for a real surprise.

It’s a good surprise.

I like supernatural stories.

Though, werewolves or related creatures are still my favorite of them all.

Elena didn’t believe the others existed either, until she’s captured and held in a prison with vampires, sorcerers, witches, and other kinds!

You’re going to want to join in the intense action and paranormal mystery of this book, believe me!

Here’s the link:

STOLEN by KELLEY ARMSTRONG.

Since I’m sharing the links with Amazon, I want to give their book description:

“Elena Michaels is back—and she has company. When a young witch tells Elena that a group of humans are kidnapping supernaturals, Elena ignores the warning. After all, everyone knows there’s no such thing as witches. As for the thought of other ‘supernaturals’, well, she’d just rather not dwell on the possibility. Soon, however, she’s confronted with the truth about her world, when she’s kidnapped and thrown into a cell-block with witches, sorcerers, half-demons and other werewolves. As Elena soon discovers, dealing with her fellow captives is the least of her worries. In this prison, the real monsters carry the keys.


Lending a mission of vampires, demons, shamans, and witches, Elena is lured into the net of ruthless Internet billionaire Tyrone Winsloe, who is well on his way to amassing a private collection of supernaturals. He plans to harness their powers for himself—even if it means killing them.

For Elena, kidnapped and imprisoned deep underground, unable to tell her friends from her enemies, choosing the right allies is a matter of life and death.”

When Angels Fall

Gemma Doyle has found her special power of second sight. Can she use it to find the Temple in the Realms?

By John Irvin

This is the sequel to A Great and Terrible Beauty. You know I wouldn’t promote it if I didn’t enjoy it. Following the magical and mysterious theme of its prequel, Rebel Angels, brings you further into Gemma’s life.

Will she ever be able to finish this mission?

I found several tense parts, wondering what would happen next and hoping against hope Kartik would not accomplish his mission.

If you enjoyed the first book like I did, you will have to follow my steps and buy this second installment in the trilogy.

I’m also still wondering what exactly the Temple is and if we really want to go there. Can’t wait to read the third book and finale!

Here’s the link:

REBEL ANGELS by LIBBA BRAY.

Since I’m sharing the links with Amazon, I want to give their book description:

“Gemma Doyle is looking forward to a holiday from Spence Academy—spending time with her friends in the city, attending balls in fancy gowns with plunging necklines, and dallying with the handsome Lord Denby. Yet amid these distractions, her visions intensify—visions of three girls dressed in white, to whom something horrific has happened that only the realms can explain.

The lure is strong, and soon Gemma, Felicity, and Ann are turning flowers into butterflies in the enchanted world that Gemma takes them to. To the girls’ great joy, their beloved Pippa is there as well, eager to complete their circle of friendship.


But all is not well in the realms—or out. Kartik is back, desperately insisting to Gemma that she must bind the magic, lest colossal disaster befall her. Gemma is willing to comply, for this would bring her face-to-face with her late mother’s greatest friend, now Gemma’s foe—Circe. Until Circe is destroyed, Gemma cannot live out her destiny. But finding Circe proves a most perilous task. . . .

This sumptuous companion to A Great and Terrible Beauty teems with Victorian thrills and chills that play out against the rich backdrop of 1895 London, a place of shadows and light . . . where inside great beauty can lie a rebel angel.”

Has the Godspeed’s journey been in vain?

Amy is just as shocked as everyone else on the ship, have they really reached the New Earth?

By John Irvin

This is the finale in the Across the Universe trilogy and, I must say, I did not know what to expect.

With all the chaos from book two, Shades of Earth came at me as a breath of relief. I mean, they’d actually arrived at their destination ahead of schedule?

But then, there’s the gut-wrenching plot twist as always and I was back to diving in the trenches with my fictional friends, holding on and hoping for dear life they’d make it through this.

If you haven’t snatched up the first two books, I want to ask you something…

What are you waiting for?

Grab them and grab this one now!

Here’s the link:

SHADES OF EARTH by BETH REVIS.

Since I’m sharing the links with Amazon, I want to give their book description:

“Amy and Elder have finally left the oppressive walls of the spaceship Godspeed behind. They’re ready to start life afresh—to build a home—on Centauri-Earth, the planet that Amy has traveled 25 trillion miles across the universe to experience.

But this new Earth isn’t the paradise Amy had been hoping for. There are giant pterodactyl-like birds, purple flowers with mind-numbing toxins, and mysterious, unexplained ruins that hold more secrets than their stone walls first let on. The biggest secret of all? Godspeed‘s former passengers aren’t alone on this planet. And if they’re going to stay, they’ll have to fight.

Amy and Elder must race to discover who—or what—else is out there if they are to have any hope of saving their struggling colony and building a future together. They will have to look inward to the very core of what makes them human on this, their most harrowing journey yet. Because if the colony collapses? Then everything they have sacrificed—friends, family, life on Earth—will have been for nothing.”

Do NOT miss out on the mystery and adventure: SHADES OF EARTH.
