Flood - Crowe, Eldon

. .

Résumé :
In Fall, Adam and Eve lived in harmony with the animals in the Garden of Eden, enjoying Abba Father's rich blessings. Then their encounter with Nahash, the deceiving serpent, left them banished and forbidden to ever return, plunging the world into sin. In Fallen, their children, Cain, Azura, and Abel, sought to continue to hear and to follow Abba Father's voice, sometimes with success but sometimes with tragic results, but leaving a heritage of enmity between the future branches of the burgeoning human race instead: the lines of Cain and of Seth, the husband of Azura. Now, in Flood, the world that has been created with such promise and hope in Eden is utterly corrupt and evil. And now even the Eneph, the Fallen Ones, have arisen and walk the Earth, abominations of the Creation and products of the corruption of both humanity and fallen angels. Abba Father, filled with pain, is determined to destroy the world he has created and the swiftly growing humanity that spreads its sinful taint all over its surface. Only a small remnant, the last of the line of Seth, has a hope of survival. The family of Noah, dwelling in the Valley of Seth, is facing the quickly mounting hostility of Lamech, powerful Cainite king of Kalneh, the Great City, and of all the plain. Noah has been moved by Abba Father to leave their old, protected home in the valley and now, against rapidly shrinking odds and pursued by enemies scenting Seth's final defeat, he must trust in Abba Father as he has never done before to deliver him and his family from the Flood.
