About

Jerusalem, 734 BCE. A young prince grasps for the throne of Judah, desperately attempting to find refuge from instability brought on by a powerful confederacy, an expanding empire, and the words of a prophet.

Prince Ahaz of Judah is a young man overwhelmed by a suffocating choice: join the Syro-Ephraimite confederacy or align with their enemy, the rising power of Assyria. Standing in the center of this conflict is the prophet Isaiah, who attempts to show Ahaz a third option. His revelations offer spiritual and political direction. He tells Ahaz's father, "Neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid." But for the young prince, fear is unavoidable.

In this gripping historical tragedy, the 8th-century BCE Levant is brought to vivid, gritty life. Follow Ahaz as he navigates a world of palace intrigue, ancient rituals, and the brutal reality of Iron Age warfare. It is a story of epic politics, faith vs. syncretism, and a man who, in trying to save his kingdom, risks losing his soul.

Perfect for readers of historical epics and those seeking a deeper, narrative-driven understanding of Isaiah's world, Neither Fear Ye Their Fear is a meticulous look at the crisis that birthed some of the most profound prophecies in human history.
