JustRead Tours Blog Tour: Lion of Judah by Henry O. Arnold

Welcome to the Blog Tour for Lion of Judah by Henry O. Arnold, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!

Title: Lion of Judah
Series: The Song of Prophets and Kings #5
Author: Henry O. Arnold
Publisher: WhiteFire Publishing
Release Date: May 15, 2025
Genre: Biblical/Historical Fiction

The new king is crowned in triumph…
But his pride proves to be a fatal flaw…
And from out of his own house calamity falls upon him 

Once a shepherd, a captain, and a fugitive, David is now king. He left behind the dangers of life on the run and embraced the comforts of living in the palace. No longer known as the “giant-slayer,” but as the “lion of Judah,” King David enjoys the popularity and prosperity brought on by his victories. 

But peace in the nation of Israel has a double-edged sword. David’s pride subverts his judgment, and his desires overwhelm his heart leading him down a dark pathway. The king will go to any lengths to cover up his crimes, but disaster falls upon the House of David bringing this broken and contrite king to cry out to Yahweh for mercy.  

Lion of Judah continues the tale of triumph and tragedy, deepest love and burning rivalries; the new epoch is given a voice…and it is The Song of Prophets and Kings. 

Biblical Historical Fiction is a genre that has gained my interest in the last year. Lion of Judah by Henry O Arnold is the latest in this genre that I have read. It is Book 5 in The Song of Prophets and Kings series. I have not read the other books in this series, yet, but look forward to reading them in the near future. 

I truly enjoyed the story of King David this book represents. King David was full of pride, which brings about many issues. Many found King David to be concealing his flaws due to his prideful nature. King David seems to be using his authority to his advantage. I think the moment when King David finally breaks down and asks for mercy, was when the book really spoke to me. The book is showing that we are all flawed and we have to be willing to surrender our flaws and be true to ourself and to God. The author has amazing writing skills and makes the book easy to understand. The mixture of Biblical Truth and Fiction writing makes the book really intriguing. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Fiction with Biblical Truth. GREAT BOOK!
