“WORLD UNITED completely exceeded my expectations. The combination of biblical prophecy, global politics, spiritual warfare, and human emotion created a story that was impossible to put down. I especially enjoyed how the characters felt real despite the massive world events unfolding around them. David and Esther's journey added a heartfelt emotional layer that balanced the action perfectly. The pacing was excellent, and the ending left me eager to continue the series. ONE OF THE MOST COMPELLING CHRISTIAN FICTION NOVELS I'VE READ."
"What an incredible reading experience (WORLD UNITED). The world building was detailed, the plot was intense, and the spiritual themes were woven naturally into the narrative. President Steinstad was one of the most fascinating antagonists I've encountered in Christian fiction. His charisma made him both believable and dangerous. The scenes involving angelic and demonic forces added another dimension to the story without overwhelming it. I found myself emotionally invested in the outcome of every major character."
“The real genius of this novel is that Wes Brustad set down his thoughts in contemporary prose. As all history may be considered as an "...echo upon an echo", THE ROAR OF THE LIONS delivers a contemporary atmosphere because the personal conflicts, wars, religious rivalries, conspiracies, insights, romances and political competitions are as topical today as they were centuries before the Christian era. Wes Brustad has written an original novel letting his imagination run wild to offer the reader a most satisfying experience.”
“The writing flowed through the various twists and turns of the numerous subplots without tedium and maintained my interest throughout as the author created suspenseful circumstances. His development of the significant characters and events made them seem as real as if he experienced them personally. I’m impressed with his creative imagination and the prodigious research that resulted in this historical novel.”
“REVENGE! is a wonderful story told about a family who has settled in a new town in the West. Two bad men come to their farm asking very nicely if they can water their horses and if she has anything they could eat. She finds out too late just how dangerous they are. She carries a lot of hate & revenge for these while she also blames God. A very interesting story and could very easily be based on a true story because things like this did happen too often back then. Well worth reading.”
“Wes Brustad creates a very plausible picture of what Babylon was like by creating a world involving every facet of that fascinating society. The politics, the religions, the royal family, their servants and all the diverse segments of Babylonian society come alive in his book. Wes has weaved an exciting story which is hard to put down. I hope we see more from this author.”
“Very well done story that makes the book hard to put down. Great cast of characters that create constant action in every paragraph. The clarity of their roles in the plot is superb. The description of the environment in Babylon throughout the book is very well done. Would like to see more books from this author.”
THE LIONS' DEN by Wes Brustad is an incredible tale. This historical book, brought to life amazing characters, battles, wars, and a friendship unlike any other. Wes Brustad's writing is superb.

“A very good book. The writing is sharp and the pages just seem to pass as you are engaged by the story. The book is exciting from the first pages and continues through out. I would recommend you buy this book.”
“Fast-paced; fascinating characters; truly interesting backdrop; terrific story development and details. This was a real page-turner, always leaving you wanting more. Really didn't want it to end as it was easy to care about the characters.”
“Always good to find a book you can't put down. Mr Brustad is a great story teller weaving intrigue throughout an interesting and enjoyable tale. The characters filled in around historical figures become real. This is one that deserves another book about this time in history. Can't wait for the movie.”
Wes Brustad's THORNS is a gripping and imaginative fusion of biblical history and supernatural warfare that pulls readers into an unseen battle of faith, obedience, and sacrifice. Told through the eyes of Guardian Angel Beniel, the story explores the weight of duty, loyalty, and divine timing as angels and demons clash across both heavenly realms and the earthly world. Brustad masterfully humanizes celestial beings, allowing readers to feel Beniel's inner conflict as deeply as the physical battles he faces. The parallel journey between the Apostle Paul's unwavering faith and Beniel's struggle for clarity creates a powerful narrative about trust in God's greater purpose.
