King's Blood: Raised a Shepherd, Born a King

By: Daniel J. Geisel

Narrated by: Scott Lucas

King’s Blood is a fast-paced retelling of history’s greatest life-threatening journey ever taken to become king. It is the story of David and his unconventional rise to power, but this is not your Sunday-school tale.

To those who know him, he is nothing more than a shepherd. To his family, he is a servant and the youngest of eight, but David has a secret. It is a secret that will propel him into the national spotlight with the slaying of the most notorious giant in history.

Destined to become king, the warrior who once killed a lion, a bear, and a giant, finds himself the target of the kingdom he once served. Hunted now by his father figure, King Saul, David is forced to grow an army of outlaws, find the reason for which he was anointed, and wage war against his true adversary. Surprisingly, it may not be the king, but a man that history has long overlooked.

Daniel J. Geisel is a former Marine Sgt. who has turned his combat and operational experience into a truly immersive writing style. He has spent years in research to accurately and vividly depict David’s culture and life as the Bible describes. Anyone who listens to King’s Blood will not only see the story through the eyes of a warrior, but will also learn a wealth of knowledge about the ancient world and uncover hidden truths about a story so often told.

A Marine Looks At Warrior King David

Scott Lucas's narration was on point!!

This is the story of King David, written from the point of view of a YHWH-fearing warrior Marine. It is in a way very reminiscent of Cliff Graham's books about Benaiah, one of David's 33. I think it takes a man of war to truly understand a man of war. Ezekiel 34:23-24 and 37:24-25 says David will return as a Prince and Shepherd of HIS people forever. The protective aspects of a Shepherd caring for and defending his flock, being transferred to the people he cares for being his flock is very Well Defined in this story. David's being a pre-cursor look at our Warrior King YaHshua/Jesus...Ex15:3, Rev17:14, Rev19:11-21 is expansively depicted. Not needing huge numbers to overcome a more numerous enemy is also made clear. YHWH + 1 believing human is indeed a majority. This theme is clearly laid out over and over again.

Well researched! Well written!! Enjoyed it immensely. When's the next book?😁
