  The Kingdom to Come is book one of Jennifer Ball's A Great Light series. Mystery, faith, love, hate, deception, and reality converge to create a meaningful, endearing story. Two worlds; one is real, the other is believed to be a myth. However, is it possible that which cannot be seen with the natural eye, but is witnessed and felt in the heart is the truest reality? "Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1). This narrative explores the power of innocence over the deceptive influence of the world. It captures the purity of love to withstand the forces of evil. It portrays hope and gives homage to what is not seen. It reflects the unbreakable bond of faith and love. As the two main characters interact, their characters evolve and grow. Yes, this is a war story in which good battles evil, benevolence overthrows malevolence, and faith conquers fear. But most importantly, it is a beautifully told story of love that stretches into eternity.
