And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; and said to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: for the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?” Revelation 6:15-17


Accused of domestic terrorism, Emilio Vega was on his way to a Department of Global Security death camp when the mega-quake hit. The streets beneath his transport vehicle buckled, tossing the van in the air like a toy. He survived the crash, but the world is now in ruins. However, for a condemned man, this disaster may be just the lucky break he needed.

Emilio has been left behind!

Six detainees were in the van prior to the quake. However, only Emilio and one other prisoner were still around when he regained consciousness. Emilio searched the surrounding area, but to no avail. The missing prisoners believed in an event called the rapture, when Jesus would collect His saints before raining down unbearable wrath on the planet’s remaining inhabitants.

Can Emilio and Mackenzie survive the gauntlet of destruction known as the Great Tribulation?

Mackenzie Thompson, the other prisoner still present, is convinced that it was the rapture and that they’ve been left behind. She also believes a time of unparalleled torment is about to be poured out upon the earth. Emilio and Mackenzie have a place to go, but it is hundreds of miles away. The roads are unusable, and the two of them are fugitives on the run. If this truly is the Great Tribulation, it’s off to a bad start.

As with all works by Mark Goodwin, this book contains no profanity and no embarrassing sex scenes. However, if you are offended by conservative principles and references to Scripture, this book might not be for you.


Tribulation (Kingdom of Darkness #1) Reviews


  • Amber

    I read this in no time and I'm eagerly awaiting the next one! Highly recommend these books!

  • Jeannie

    Fast pace

    This series of books are full of adventure and conflicts. It’s interesting how they go along with scripture with each chapter. Worth the read.

  • Jacqueline McDougall

    I read the first 3 books of the previous series and this, the first one in the followup series in rapid succession (within a week and a half). These are similar to the Left Behind series and the Thunder of Heaven series, both of which are series with Tim LaHaye as one of the co-authors.

    These books by Mark Goodwin are superior in that they use almost everyday-type person/people to provide a fictional account of what it might be like to live through the end of the days of this earth.

    Mr Goodwin seems to take a mid-trib stance on his stories, and I am in agreement on this (at least at this time, but it may change as it already has one time). These books were riveting in light of the fact we are nearing the end of surviving 2020, have just finished a United States election which I believe to have been riddled with corrupti0n (and, therefore, without God's intervention they all will be from here on out), and there is a great deal of anxiety about what the new administration will bring. One of the books even mentioned COVID19. Will the immediate future be comprised of something similar to what is described in these books? It is not possible to know, but the books do provide a plausible storyline.

    The books were literally unputdownable, and I believe anyone would get entertainment and knowledge (even Bible knowledge as it is sprinkled liberally throughout) by a read of them.

    Can hardly wait for the 2nd book in this series which will be out in March. Keep them coming, Mr Goodwin.

  • Michelle Welch

    Wow. That’s the only word that describes this book.

    As our current circumstances continue to deteriorate, it is downright eerie to read this book. So many similarities. Emilio is faced with the truth of the scriptures in this end times thriller. As he continues to struggle with what he’s lost, he can only keep moving forward.

  • Aaron Stewart

    I must say that "Tribulation" was a good read. I didn't know what to expect as I was searching for a good Christian fiction book (series) to start. I wasn't disappointed. I certainly love how the author uses biblical concepts in application of world events. I'm ready to read the next book in the series.

  • Wojik Romanovicz

    Page Turner

    What I initially thought was lacking ultimately turned out to be unnecessary. The story flows while building on what brought the characters to the point where we are introduced. Take a look around, we are but a few (more) wrong turns from being a character in this storyline.

  • Ray Baxter

    Fantastic read

    A gripping story of the end of time, showing Bible prophecy as it will happen! Gives the reader an urgent feeling to get right with God and be able to miss this part of the tribulation!

  • Dee Dee

    So very intense

    This is my first book by this author, but it won't be my last. This book was so good, it was intense but not overwhelming. I'm on to read the next one in the series.

    Interested in Revelation?

    If you are interested End Times fiction, Mark Goodwin has written a page turner. This is only the first of three of this particular series, but I expect the next two will also keep me deeply engaged.
