With more than 200,000 copies sold, this is an acclaimed international best seller that tells the fascinating story of an angel named Darien who must convince himself that Satan really does deserve eternal punishment. It is newly revised and expanded, and combined with Stedfast, one of its sequels, to form a continuous narrative. Angelwalk also received the 1989 Book of the Year Award for Religion in Media.
Clearly portraying both the seen and unseen at work, three volumes of a trilogy--Angelwalk, Fallen Angel, and Steadfast --form a visionary story filled with angels, spiritual warfare, and the struggle between good and evil.
