The Scriptures: End of Days
FOR FANS OF LEFT BEHIND -The Scriptures is a thrilling debut about the end of the world following a nuclear attack on New York.
It is the end of days. A nuclear strike hits New York. Alfie, a young black male, survives but with no memory of what has happened. The only thing he can remember with any clarity is how to play his guitar and a few snatches of old blues and folk songs.
Another survivor, Meg, has taken refuge in the hills of Vermont, and she, too, is the victim of near absolute amnesia. Her only hope is to survive these darkest of days. Across the country, a prophet called John is reveling in the fallout of chaos that accompanies the strike and is calling for Judgment Day against sinners, all while civilization burns around him. This is the final battle. Alfie and Meg don't know it, but they have a grim destiny. They must stand together and defeat the Great Beast with only their faith to shield them. Can they build a New Jerusalem from the ruins of the White House?

This was a VERY interesting take on an apocalypse novel. I enjoyed it, it read at a fast pace, it kept me wanting to know more and I read the entire thing in a day. Dekker Green is a wonderful writer. The descriptions in this book were vivid. The storyline was well thought out and obviously a lot of research must have gone into this book. "Who's that writin'? John the Revelator"

Exciting Read!
I won this book on a Goodreads giveaway, and so glad I did! I read this in less than 12 hours. I was drawn in right from the start. Dekker Green captured my attention with his writing style and his choice of subject matter. I am a fan of apocalyptic stories, and those with a religious feel to them are always very interesting to me. It hits on Revelations in depth, but in such a way that the reader can truly visualize the events taking place. Very descriptive writing style. I look forward to a second in this series, as it definitely ended on a cliffhanger.... But satisfying. One issue resolved, but another door opening.
