Embark on the epic tale and witness: The Fall of Lucifer! And the origins of Christianity's greatest foe.

In this captivating narrative, The Third Heaven breathes new life into the age-old story of Lucifer's fall as Michael recounts his emergence as a reluctant protagonist, tasked with uncovering and thwarting the looming threat of insurrection instigated by his brother Lucifer.

As the celestial drama unfolds, delve into the intricacies of angelic conflict, where allegiances are tested, and choices carry eternal consequences. Experience the cosmic struggle firsthand as Michael must confront the anointed cherub that covers God's throne, Lucifer.

From the vantage point of angels, journey back to the beginning, witness the genesis of rebellion and explore the depths of divine relationships and the motivations behind Heaven's upheaval. Why did a third of Heaven seek to overthrow their creator, and what compels Michael to stand against his once-beloved brother?

Embark on a riveting blend of biblical fact and fantasy, follow Michael as he, Gabriel, and others face formidable obstacles in their quest to preserve the cosmic balance. Brace yourself for a tale where duty clashes with loyalty, and the fate of all creation hangs in the balance.

Prepare to be transported into a world where the origin of the timeless struggle between good and evil is birthed. As Michael embarks on his harrowing journey, readers will be spellbound by the profound implications of his quest. And the incredible ramifications for God's dealings with mankind.

Experience the rich tapestry of Christian Fantasy and Religious Fiction as "The Third Heaven: The Rise of Fallen Stars" brings to life an ancient tale still relevant today.

Even though this is fiction, it allows one to imagine what the totality of creation might be, and place oneself in the realm of Christ and God.

The Third Heaven: The Rise of Fallen Stars gives us the answers to the question most readers of the Bible have ever asked: How did Satan come to be? This novel is speculative fiction about how this angel fell from grace and became God’s worst enemy. The Bible doesn’t tell us much about how it happened, so it is in a sense, a pre-quel to the Bible.

The Third Heaven starts out interestingly enough. We are given beautifully detailed descriptions of heaven and of the different angels. Lucifer (the angel who eventually becomes Satan) is described several times as shining like living diamonds and his body also made beautiful music. We learn about the work that the angels do in heaven during the seven days of creation.

The book is flawlessly edited. That made the reading easy. What made the reading not so easy was the switching back and forth from old English (King James Bible English) to modern day English.

I followed along well enough through to about the halfway point in the book. What I found interesting were the parallels that the author drew among the scenes in his story and the stories in the Bible. An example would be where they are having a meal just before El (God) goes for his day of rest and he tells his angels that there is a betrayer among them. They ask who it is and El says it is the one he shares the sop in the cup with. Then he hands the cup to Lucifer. This is a parallel to Judas and Christ at the Last Supper. There were several of these types of parallels in the book. Unfortunately that aspect of the story will be lost on those who are not familiar with the Bible.

Once past the halfway point in the story, I found that the book just bogged right down for me and got decidedly boring. I was kind of struggling up until this point anyway because I really had a hard time being invested in any of the characters. I didn’t really like any of them and I didn’t really hate any of them. I did find El to be rather cold and distant, not the kind of loving and just sort of God that I know Him to be.

The scenes in the second half of the book just dragged on and on. I even skimmed part of the book just to get through it. I think the battles could have been shortened. I admit I was disappointed. I was so looking forward to reading an exciting book about how Lucifer thought himself better than God.

For me, this book was a 1 star out of 5, but that’s just my personal opinion.

I bought this book on Amazon for the purposes of reviewing it.

This is the first work of writing of Neal's that I have read. But then again, this is the only novel he has written so far!! He does plan on future books. I look forward to them. I had bought this book in November 2013, and it stayed on my To Be Read list until the author contacted me (from finding my blog on a Google search) via email asking if I would review his book. That was not a hard decision to make seeing I had already bought his book and would have left a review anyway as I do for all the books I read.

From reading The Third Heaven, I am pleased I am reading this now and not in the future. This is one very hard to put down piece of writing. You are transported to another world. Many times I had to remind myself that this was fiction and not an expanded account of the real events that the Bible has not included! If anyone ever wondered about what Heaven is like before the creation of man, then look no further. As the book description says, The Prequel to the Bible is here!

Neal writes well, and his descriptions of Heaven, the angels, newly created Earth and the galaxy and universe are well done. He has outlined, however briefly, a hierarchy of angels according to their role and various functions. I found this fascinating. It is also Biblical as well, but the Bible is less descriptive about this than Neal who has used some poetic license in this matter. This has definitely added some very interesting plot lines and depth.

I can see that some Christians might have some issues with his depiction and portrayal of Heaven, the angels and even reference to controversial theology. I did come across a resource from Neal's website that does clarify these things. It can be found here: Thinking Behind The Third Heaven [...]. I would recommend anyone considering reading this novel to check out the above resource. It will add to their understanding, and why the author has constructed it like he has and even some of the challenges he faced writing this novel. I am not surprised in a novel of this genre and plot. Many Christians can be very defensive in their opinions and understanding of topics such as the fall of Lucifer, angels in general, the war in Heaven, the creation of the earth and even Genesis in general. Neal has planned well for this by providing this resource. This adds to his credibility as an author and his commitment to not just entertain in this novel but to exhort and uplift the Bible, God and the Gospel message in this medium of fiction.

I found it very interesting the plot line about Apollyon. I know so very little of this angel other than what I have read in Revelation and in eschatological fiction that I had not considered anything about him before the fall of Lucifer. Yes, this is the author's poetic license showing but it did get me thinking and it adds a great storyline and precursor to the fall of Lucifer. Neal also provides a plot twist towards the end that I would never have seen coming relating to both these high ranking angels. Very clever!

I really enjoyed a dialogue sequence where El (God) is talking to Lucifer, and it is very much old style English (same as in the KJV of the bible) and it is very beautiful. Adds a poetic, romantic edge to God despite the content of the dialogue being very serious and God being very serious in the circumstance.

Any Christian or anyone who has read the bible will know that Lucifer's pride was what led to his sin/downfall and the judgement of God upon him. Neal describes his pride and arrogance, even hatred of newly created man and man's reason for existence in such an intense way that the reader is tempted to take time out from reading this, in order to cope with this intensity. From this point on Neal weaves Lucifer's increasing pride and arrogance into the rest of the plot on all levels and layers and it is here that the pace becomes relentless and the action frenetic. The outcome is that war breaks out in Heaven while El is resting from his creative work. The angels are exposed for the first time to violence, hatred, deception, betrayal, hatred. All emotions that are very foreign to them and at first they do not know how to deal with them. They have never been left without any direction from El and to fend for themselves. This plays directly into Lucifer's deception. Neal shines here with him weaving his own poetic license and recorded biblical events in a masterful way. His poetic license is very clever to wind all this up with a possible explanation of the gap between Genesis 1: 1 and 2. Very much riveting reading.

Neal describes the creation of Hell very well, and it is another piece of riveting reading. Very descriptive and sobering and forms a great pillar in the plot structure. Very different to other fictional descriptions of Hell from other Christian authors but nonetheless appropriate and in line with what is recorded in the Bible.

There is so much in this novel that to describe it here would make this review one very long and involved one. Neal is quite the story teller and this novel showcases his talent very appropriately.

This could translate to one great movie!

Highly Recommended.

Beautifully written fiction that gives us food for thoughts as to why Lucifer rebelled. I loved this book because the author masterfully blended "facts" found in Scriptures with fiction. I felt I got to understand Scriptures better BECAUSE of the fiction. I can't wait to read the next opus of the trilogy!

Interesting tale involving an imagining of what the war in heaven might have been like. Though not doctrinally exact; which it never claims to be; it nevertheless brings to mind the unfathomable power and, beauty and glory of the Lord. Also, hang on those who are saved, one day we will see for ourselves!
