The Ring of Solomon
About
Release date June 1, 2024
Brother Greg’s life is all a façade. As the head Pastor of the mega-church Christian Fellowship Center, life was perfect for a man who desired wealth, power, and influence. Greg achieved all his dreams by only having faith in himself while, at the same time, preaching what his followers wanted to believe. Greg had it all, or so he thought until his past returned to take it away again. Unexpectedly, he was reunited with his childhood best friend Robert, who recently woke up from a coma due to Greg's actions.
His assistant, Grace, is intelligent, sexy, and too good to be true. She is on a mission unknown to Greg, from her powerful mother and their benefactors, to monitor Greg until he is needed for a future they are not privy to.
Earlier, when he was in a coma, the Archangel Raphael tasked Robert to get his friend Greg on their side against a group of fallen angels.
The key to defeating them is the mythical Ring of Solomon.

Praise for this book
Loved book 1 so I couldn't wait to read book 2 . Book 2 did not disappoint.
I read book 1 in a day and did the same with book 2. They were both so good I couldn't put them down. In Ring of Solomon, the author has provided more information on book 1's storyline while developing new characters and storyline for book 2. I actually think I liked book 2 more. The author does a fabulous job of intertwining two worlds. It makes you wonder if such things are not just fantasy. Excited to hear that a book 3 is being written. Will definitely be reading that one as well.
I liked the characters Gerard created. The plot twists were good. The flow of the story was well paced. Another good local writer.
Brother Greg: The Ring of Solomon was a blast from start to finish. It’s one of those rare reads that mixes ancient relics, spiritual warfare, and modern action without ever feeling like it’s trying too hard. And somehow, it all just works.
Brother Greg himself is a fantastic character—part monk, part action hero, and all heart. He’s got that quiet strength vibe, like someone who’s been through hell and came out the other side more focused, not more broken. I loved how grounded he felt, even when the story started spinning into supernatural territory.
The plot moves fast, but it never loses its depth. There’s real history layered in with the fiction, and it gives the story some weight. The Ring of Solomon isn’t just a magical MacGuffin—it’s tied into themes of faith, power, and responsibility. You can tell the author put serious thought into this world.
What really stood out for me, though, was the balance. One chapter you're getting chased by mercenaries, the next you’re unpacking theological questions that actually make you pause and think. But it never slows the story down—it enriches it.
If you’re into books that feel like Indiana Jones had a coffee with John Wick and then went to seminary, this one belongs on your shelf. Highly recommend—and I’ll be grabbing whatever comes next in the series.
This is a remake of the old classic good vs evil. In this book it is Greg and Robert against two archangels. They are called by Raphael to destroy the fallen angels, Bezale and Azazel. The ring of Solomon is an artifact that allows Greg to control the fallen archangels when in close proximity. He and Robert, and their ladies, Anne Marie and Grace, trap both angels and start to live their happily ever after. But then you learn that they are being watched by some other force that hints that there is more to come.
Brother Greg is a pastor who hides big secrets, but everything changes when his old friend Robert wakes up from a coma. Robert has a special mission from an angel to help Greg fight evil. They must stop bad angels and protect a magic ring. The story has lots of action, mystery, and lessons about choosing good over bad.
I liked how the story mixes action with theology without losing the plot. The scenes with the Archangel Raphael were actually kind of cool, and the whole ring thing isn’t just magic,it’s tied into Greg’s soul and choices.What to improve? I'd say that some dialogue doesn’t feel natural, and the story jumps around a bit too fast. But that is just my opinion, maybe the author did that on purpose. The writing is mostly easy to get through,even for someone like me who didn’t grow up reading a lot.
