It’s up to the warrior angel Validus and his hand-picked team of heavenly agents to protect the unbelieving Drew.

Can One Doubting Man Change the Fate of a Nation?
 
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms…”
 
The riveting final book in the Wars of the Realm series, Light of the Last (Multnomah Books, February 16, 2016) concludes the heroic escapades of Drew Carter as he finds himself at the center of a global spiritual battle that could destroy the United States of America.
After an accident left him temporarily blind, Drew Carter discovered he could see what others cannot: the light and dark warriors fighting a spiritual battle around him. But that’s only the beginning of his problems: his unique talents catapult him into service with the CIA on a top-secret mission to uncover a terrorist plot with roots deep in the federal government.

As both light and dark forces discover why Drew is crucial to humanity's survival, Drew’s struggle between following God or remaining an atheist becomes essential to the fate of the United States. Validus, the last and least of God’s angels, must rise to the challenge of leading his team of angel warriors to protect Drew against a Legion of dark forces bent on destroying him before he can find true faith.
Will Drew find God and discover his purpose in both global and spiritual history? Or will his doubts provide an opening for the Fallen to forever alter the destiny of this nation…and the world?    

By drawing on his own experience in the United States Air Force, Black spins a captivating adventure for young adult readers. Black also includes notes to explain how biblical passages shaped his fictional portrayal of spiritual warfare. These elements offer families additional opportunities for biblical discussion and homeschool study. Thoughtfully constructed to emphasize the power of prayer, God's Word and being a witness for the Gospel, Black’s powerful conclusion to the Wars of the Realm series opens the eyes of young readers to the realities of spiritual warfare.

In a culture fixated on the heroes of comic books and science fiction blockbusters, Black’s fictional look at the real importance of truth and prayer is a much-needed challenge for young adults to discover true heroism in living boldly for Jesus.
