Produktbeschreibung
Gabriel Thomas watches the world flood from inside his Pennsylvania school with other children with nowhere else to go. Suddenly, he's filled with the Holy Spirit as God chooses him to lead an "Elect" few to paradise. Gabriel leads 11 other children, on God's instructions, to establish a community on a nearby mountain while the world floods. Twenty years and a second flood later, the remains of humanity are divided into the Elect on Spring Mountain and the cannibalistic Golgoths who terrorize survivors outside it. Seven young adults in the South all have the same dream, featuring Gabriel. In Alabama, Booker Bailey, a scholar, recently lost his parents to the Golgoths. Marshall Langar just discovered that his common-law wife aborted her pregnancy and wants him to leave their Tennessee cabin. In Georgia, Arabella Pendleman and Tatum Winters are convinced by the devout Christian Aliyah Freedman and Dodie Sealy to leave for Spring Mountain, and in Tennessee, Jayden Bonner, a musician and astrologer, does the same. Second Coming follows young adult survivors called to rise above loneliness to join others in good works, or embrace a world gone bad, battling internal and external forces seeking to consume them. The seven meet on the Appalachian Trail, evading Golgoths called north by their leader, Hostis Dei, in preparation for a final battle.
Autorenporträt
John James Minster writes horror drawn from nightmares both waking and sleeping. A Pennsylvania native, he launched a successful international career in technology during the 1980s while publishing horror short stories in anthologies.His works include the middle-grade horror novel Dreamjacker; the acclaimed religious horror The Undertaker's Daughter (Hellbender Books, 2022); the short story collection The Vengeful Dead (2023), which drew attention from Hollywood producers; and Second Coming (2024), hailed by readers as his finest work to date. Across all titles, Minster's fiction has earned widespread praise and five-star reviews from horror fans around the world.As a child, he often sleepwalked-once nearly leaping down the stairs, convinced he could fly. Even now, he thrashes and talks in his sleep, describing his nightmares as "nightly mini horror movies." He credits them with keeping his imagination sharp and his stories flowing: "No writer's block on the horizon; no chance I'll run out of tales."Learn more at JohnJamesMinster.com.Instagram: https: //www.instagram.com/johnjamesminster/Facebook: https: //www.facebook.com/MinsterHorrorStories
