It's rare to see a debut that balances accessibility with ambition this well.-Josh, CEO of Skookum Hill Publishing***The Last Adam is a daring, emotionally charged thriller that reimagines the Nativity through a contemporary, high-stakes lens. Ron Echols masterfully blends biblical prophecy with cinematic action, weaving angels, adversaries, and human frailty into a gripping narrative that spans from Los Angeles to Jerusalem. At the heart of the story is Mary, a young, talented singer whose life spirals into divine chaos, and Joseph, a man caught between legacy, love, and a growing war he doesn't yet understand. The characters are richly drawn, the pacing relentless, and the spiritual themes handled with both reverence and bold imagination. Think The Da Vinci Code meets This Present Darkness, but with fresher emotional stakes and a thoroughly modern pulse. Echols isn't just telling a story, he's constructing a world where ancient powers still pull the strings of everyday lives. A truly compelling debut. -Hammad Khalid, MDPublishing.com
