David, Volume One - The Illustrated Novel (Hardcover)

Volume 1

These are the events and people that surrounded and defined David from age 15 to 30--the boy-shepherd, the poet, the musician, the anointed, the warrior, the hunted, and the seeker of God's heart. Few men in history can compare with David's charismatic personality and Adonis good looks. HIs features were so strong and handsome that women vied for his attention. As a warrior who killed thousands, his troops openly adored him. Yet, King Saul was hell-bent on killing him. Saul's son, Jonathan--a prince and possibly next in line for the throne--not only befriended him, but saved his life on more than one occasion.
