The Chronicles of the Adonai: The Colony

A Novel by Braxton Hunter


What would happen if a generation were raised with no knowledge of God?

In a dystopian society, led by leaders who call themselves The Adonai, that question is answered.  Avoiding a worldwide destruction known as The Great Darkness, a colony was established by social architects in an ice-covered landscape of wonder and mystery. All references to God have been intentionally removed. Nevertheless, the colony's group of peacekeeping defenders are about to be sent on a journey that will throw their world into chaos, and begin a search for the truth.


Apologist and author, Dr. Braxton Hunter, delivers equal parts adventure, romance, philosophy, and mystery in this intense novel set in an intriguing environment that echoes current worldview issues.

The Colony exists in what was once (before the great darkness) an exquisite ski resort for the wealthiest of vacationers. It is surrounded by a wall that serves to protect the colonials. Beyond the wall is nothing but death. Those who tread beyond this barrier have committed departure from The Colony and are usually presumed dead. The highest point of The Colony consists of The Inquiry & Enlightenment Academy, The Administrative Lodge and The Central facility. In the midst of these is The Creed of the Adonai Monument. Trailing down the hill from the monument are residential apartments. Surrounding the Life Circle are shops and cafes. Life inside the Colony, though remote, is festive and pleasant.

The Chronicles of the Adonai: The Island (Volume 2)

"Jungles fill with blood, valleys echo screams, but evil like a flood, cannot threaten dreams!” Social architects who developed a colony with the goal of raising a generation without religious belief, seem to have vanished. Nevertheless, on a mysterious island their cult continues, but has been twisted. Is this the forgotten world of a previous but similar settlement? It is a landscape of waterfalls, zip-lines, ruins, secret passages, and its own sordid history. At this settlement the vision of the Adonai has been twisted, but how? Is it for the better? A group of young truth-seekers are about to face new characters, worldviews, moral dilemmas, and dangers, as they fight to save their friends and liberate a second colony.
