Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
While two newly created rock badgers explore their growing world, they encounter a dark foethe great dragon, the serpent of old. The sinister creature interrupts the badgers joyful exploration of the growing landscape to reveal his wicked plan to destroy Gods creation. When the enemy takes flight, the badgers race to warn Adam and Eve of the impending danger. With every thunderous flap of wings, the serpent draws closer to his perch in the forbidden tree. Will the badgers make it in time to expose the evil plan.
The Shadow and the Promise by bestselling author Marty Machowski follows the adventures of the animals who witness the events of Genesis and Exodus unfold before them. Join badgers in the Garden of Eden, an array of animals in the Ark, groundhogs at Babel, Abrahams donkey, sheep from Josephs herd, the cats in the palace in Egypt, and a dog and oxen present at the Passover.
"Welcome to the Redemption Tales -- a series of Bible stories retold from the perspective of animals who could have witnessed the events firsthand. Follow the conflict between good and evil, the hope of the Promised One, and the long-anticipated return of the King. These books join a rich history of memorable stories that feature talking animals. There is something marvelous about a talking animal that makes for a good tale. While the animals are fictional, the truth behind each of the tales is taken directly from the adventures in the Bible"-- Introduction.
