Ilustration To Books The Judging (The Corescu Chronicles #1)
What happens when you want to do the will of God but are cursed for all eternity? Hungary, 1640. A village priest, enamored with his God and loyal to his sheep, awakens to find the village on fire. Searching for survivors, he is confronted by a dark creature with sharp teeth and red eyes. With the stab of the demon's fangs, the priest is transformed from a servant of good to an unwilling agent of evil. Present day. Four centuries pass, and Dr. Mark Corescu, that same village priest no longer recalls his origins. Corescu uses his position in the medical community to maintain a mortal facade as he pursues his true calling. Corescu seeks out evil men and women in a ritual he has dubbed the Judging. He condemns and kills them, one a night, feeding his lust on their blood. He feels neither guilt nor remorse. He believes he is serving a Higher Purpose. Artist and equestrian hobbyist Hope Brannen falls for the doctor at first sight. He feels the same, believing that she has been sent by God to aid him in his divine calling. Hope knows deep down he is not an agent of God but rather a real-life vampire. She turns to her seminary-going pal Tony Agricola for advice. As the story's only truly righteous character, Tony recognizes immediately that the doctor has incorrectly discerned the will of God. He agrees to speak to him about the matter, discovering that the doctor has suppressed his past. Slowly the doctor is reminded of his days as a humble village priest, as well as the time he spent in the clutches of the darkest creature imaginable. Steering the vampire down memory lane is difficult and risky but Tony does his best to correct the doctor's faulty theology. At the same time Corescu's perfect world is falling apart. Persevering through dangerous and perilous encounters with the vampire's immortal contemporaries, Tony shows the vampire the error of his ways. But just because his eyes are opened does not necessarily mean that his ways are easily changed.Mention Books Concering The Judging (The Corescu Chronicles #1)

Wow! Ellen wasnt kidding when she says welcome to my imagination,enjoy the ride! this one one heck of a ride. Not a rollercoaster though,wasnt much downs. So I'll say ferris wheel! When first get on you are taken back in time to a priest and a horrible incident, dont freak and get off, you dont stay there. Up we go,to the first judging,*cringes*. Then we move up to meeting characters,Hope the female main character,Her friend Fran that works for the handsome but mysterious or should I say scarey,When I first received my copy I was a little weary to read it, I am not at all familiar with the Christian horror genre, nor had I ever wanted to read a book in that genre. This book however, changed my views. Mark, a vampire centuries old, has always believed he is doing God's will by ridding the world of it's evil-doers. He along with his two companions, driver and assistant live a lavish lifestyle, free of guilt. All of this changes when Mark meets the girl he's waited his life for, Hope. I
Note from Author: Oh, how I have longed to put this book in your hands. Written from 2004 to 2006, then waiting patiently to be picked up by a publisher, this Christian vampire thriller is looking to entertain you and make you think.For readers of RABBIT: CHASING BETH RIDER, you recognize this title as the book Beth Rider wrote to enrage the Rakum (vampires) and cause them to hunt and chase her down.Enjoy!
I won this book from one of Ellen C. Maze's competitions, Ellen wrote inside it Enjoy the ride. What a ride it was!Mark Corescu is like Dexter with fangs.Mark was a Priest before being transformed into a vampire, back in 1640. He has lived his vampire life, believing he is doing Gods will by killing evildoers of the human race; giving them the chance to repent, before draining their bodies of blood and subsequently ending their lives. Fate brings two people into his life who make him question
Impressive. A vampire story that is written within the interesting category of Christian Horror seems a challenge in itself but Maze's combination works. She creates strong visual characters thrown into situations that are believeable enough in a fantasy world. Then has a vampire that is put in a spot where he starts to question his actions and his past. I would recommend this title to readers that are true vampire/horror readers. The religous perspective, to me, makes it all the more
