What is Prophetic Fiction?
There is incredible breadth amongst definitions of "Prophetic Fiction." Our primary focus are books that deal in biblical prophecy, though also permitting elements of speculation / prophecy from other sources (such as Mayan prophecy, Nostradamus, and private revelation) so long as they are not in direct contradiction to a Judaeo-Christian ethos. Yet even in the inclusion of these possibly dubious sources, we ask the reviewer to remember... we are talking about fiction! Finally, we also are open to more secular "speculative fiction", which for instance, might include projections on future forms of civilization based on current political/social trends, etc.
Our Criteria?
A great story, well told, and thought-provoking without possessing any anti-Christian message or sentiment. The books listed have either been read by our staff or critically reviewed by trusted sources.

Arguably the master of contemporary Apocalyptic/Prophetic fiction, O'Brien has been compared to Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy as being among the greatest faith-based literary writers of all time. His understanding of the human person, and man's place in the universe approaches that of the greatest Phenomenological philosophers of our time, and each novel is rich in prophetic imagery, which is masterfully interwoven within plots, characters, and scenarios. O'Brien's "Children of the Last Days" apocalyptic series/theme is contained in the first five books listed below. The listing given is a suggested order of reading the books, leading with "Father Elijah" (O'Brien's best-selling novel), then leading into a series of prequels and parallel stories.

Apocalyptic -- Suspense/Thriller -- Theological/Philosophical -- Political
THE DOMINION PROJECT: Described as "A supernatural thriller with religious and geopolitical themes," this seven-book series weaves vivid supernatural imagery within contemporary geopolitical scenarios, all viewed through the eyes and experiences of characters of diverging beliefs and backgrounds. It is offered as a challenge to the "conventional evangelical Christian end-times scenario" which has been prevailing in recent years, as well as a sort of "literary antidote" to the increasingly popular books and films which promote disinformation and misunderstanding into the nature and history of Christianity. It is the author's hope that Dominion is entertainment that is edifying for the faithful and thought-provoking for the skeptic.
