When Heaven Fell Silent

By Michael Trudeau

When Heaven Fell Silent is a haunting poetic meditation that dares to imagine the inner turmoil of Satan during the three days Christ lay in the tomb. Through the defiant yet unraveling voice of the adversary himself, this work explores the profound silence that followed the crucifixion-not as defeat, but as the breathless pause before resurrection. Drawing from Scripture, Milton's epic tradition, and centuries of theological reflection, the narrative traces pride's collapse, the echoes of Eden lost, and the shattering realization that even darkness cannot contain the Light. Told with lyrical intensity and trembling awe, it is not a glorification of evil, but a mirror that reveals the smallness of rebellion against the vastness of divine grace.

In these pages, readers witness a throne of ash crumbling, fallen wings burning out, and the murmuring deep yielding to an unbreakable song. This is sacred imagination at its most daring: a reckoning with the enemy's blindness that makes the triumph of the cross burn brighter. Perfect for those who seek deep spiritual insight through poetry, theological fiction, or meditative prose, When Heaven Fell Silent invites you not to sympathize with darkness, but to stand in awe of the silence that was broken forever.
