Discover the Untold Story
At the dawn of creation, watchers looked upon mankind from above and intervened.
Now the story from five millennia ago has been retold in The Descent of the Gods – a Biblical action epic set during the age before the Great Flood.
“Big. Bold. Brave. Descent of the Gods is an epic tale told with distinct style, tone and voice while staying respectful to the faith.”
— Richard K., Coverage Writer & Script Judge
Story Background & Trilogy
The story is based on the account given in Genesis 6:1-4.
Although brief, the story is referenced in much more detail in historical Jewish accounts, by the early church fathers, and by other extra-Biblical sources.
These sources were consulted to help fill in the story’s details, while remaining true to the Biblical account, theology, and overall context.
Sequels
The Descent of the Gods will be followed by The Children of Wrath and then by The Sons of God.

Synopsis
After watching evil spread unchecked throughout the world before the flood, angels descend in human form to intervene.
But as their mortal forms are tempted by the very sins they came to eradicate, a boy and a girl from enemy tribes risk everything to ensure the angels do not fall from grace as mankind did in Eden.
But not everything is as it seems, and mankind and angels will be forced to make choices that will have eternal consequences.

Why I’m Rewriting a Novel I’ve Spent 20 Years Building
After twenty years and six drafts, I am rewriting large parts of The Descent of the Gods — not because the story failed, but because I finally understand how ambitious it needs to be. On the Watchers, Cain, Enoch, Naamah, and why angels fall.
