"strong apocalpytic tale"
In 2019, China, India, and Pakistan finally break into the
war that everyone has been expecting for decades. The
death toll in the one-day debacle will probably reach
billions once the aftermath of radiation and feral animals
occurs. In Jerusalem, John the Apostle born during the First coming
leads over one hundred thousand Messianic Jews with
extraordinary super powers. He joins forces with powerful
Hassidic Rabbi Saul Cohen and their followers soon cause
asteroids to crash into the already damaged planet as John
plans the beginning of the apocalypse. Locust, plagues,
and famine are becoming the order of the day, as the end of
time seems imminent for those left behind. Humanity's only hope is in God's son, Christopher Goodman,
but is he really the second coming since he was actually
scientifically cloned from cells found on the Shroud of
Turin (see IN HIS IMAGE). However, after consulting with
his father and studying the bible, Christopher must do the
impossible and remain patient for the right moment to
intercede though many die and most suffer. The second novel in the "Christ Clone" trilogy is an
exciting, extremely complex tale that continues the theme
from the first tale of blending science with the End of
Days predictions of Revelations. The story is very
complicated, but it will help the audience to understand
this book better if the first novel is read before this
enthralling tale. Though some Christian readers will
object to elements in the series, most of the Left Behind
crowd and those readers who enjoy apocalypse tales like The
Prophet series will appreciate James Beauseigneur's novels
and look forward to the conclusion. Harriet Klausner
