Book 2
covenant of war
Lion of War Series
After years of crippling civil war, the northern tribes ask David, king of Judah, to make a covenant of protection with them. But near the Great Sea, the Philistine empire has raised a massive army to strike while Israel is divided and weak.
​
David's army is scattered, drought is ravaging the land, and whispers of betrayal haunt David’s own camp.​
​
Eleazar son of Dodai has been a loyal follower of David for years, and has shed much blood in the protection of their people.​
​
Though he wishes to live quietly with his wife and children, their fledgling kingdom may be destroyed in a matter of days.​
In the sun-scorched valleys and dark forests of the hill country, the fate of a nation will rest on the power of their God and the courage of a band of warriors known as the Mighty Men.
"I hope it wakes up that part of the soul that longs for purpose, brotherhood, courage, and truth. Not as abstract ideas, but as things worth living and dying for..."

"If the Lord allows it, the books may serve as a bridge between modern men and the ancient truths.

Books 1,2,3 were originally published between 2009 and 2013
WHAT'S NEW
All three have since been expanded
"For longtime readers, this new edition will feel both familiar and fresh. The bones are the same—but there’s more muscle on them now."
​
"If you connected with the brotherhood, the grit, the spiritual tension before, you’ll find even more to resonate with here. And for new readers, this is the strongest version of the story—the one I always wanted to tell, and now finally can."
​
"I’ve had the chance to expand the characters, deepen the relationships, and really lean into the spiritual and emotional layers of the story."
​
"The battle sequences are sharper and more intense. The character arcs have more weight. And the writing itself—I think it’s simply better. I’m more seasoned now, more intentional with every word, and more aware of what I want this series to say."

WHY READ
LION OF WAR SERIES
“To say that I'm excited to see these stories coming back to life is an understatement… I believe God used Cliff Graham and the Lion of War series to reach me. I devoured these books, Covenant of War being my favorite so far.
Because of these books I picked up my first bible and started reading about King David's life in the bible… Now I have a family, a wonderful wife who loves Jesus and three kids that the Lord has blessed me with.”
- Steven Rourke
