The Relic Revolver

by Jeffrey Touchstone

When demons attack Jack’s hometown and kill nearly everyone that he has ever cared for, he is pushed through an interdimensional door and finds himself in the realm between Heaven and Hell. Jack presses forward through the otherworlds, determined to find Sarah, the only woman that has ever held his heart, and pour out revenge on the evil that attacked his home. He finds out that he has been prophesied to sit on Heaven’s Throne, and must find a legendary weapon to prevent the destruction of the world. Jack presses on, fighting through impossible situations in unthinkable places that would be terrifying for any ordinary mortal, but he is far from normal. Jack teams up with two fallen angels, a mysterious childlike shadow creature who always wants a hug, and a grumpy leolid who looks a lot like a large version of Earth’s frogs. The adventurers grow together as they try to beat the odds to save humanity from destruction.
Heaven’s Throne is a heroic tale of a selfish bounty hunter turning from a cold heartless killer to the savior of the mortal realms. In this epic tale, everything matters, everything connects, and nothing is what it seems.
