The Apocalypse is now, and the world is cold and shrouded in darkness. The Four Horsemen have delivered their Dooms, demons and angels make war, and the walking dead stalk the living. Barachai Jaiden Gifter is the unlikely leader of a bastion of hope in the darkness, a citadel called Ha Shomrim. Called Moshiach by some, he struggles to protect the people under his care from the titanic struggle of Heaven and Hell, a battle destined to annihilate the world and all life on it. Fortunately, Barachai is not alone in this fight. His allies include John Henry (a redneck cyborg), Lord Richard (an English secret agent), and Alphonse (his brother-in-law, a slightly reformed infernal wizard). Arrayed against them are minions of Hell with familiar faces. Elvis Presley had sold his soul for fame and fortune; now he has been sent back with the power of storms at his command. Worse, the shade of Adolph Hitler is still on the loose and looking for vengeance against Barachai and his citadel.

Isaac's Storm
Author: Erik Larson
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0375708278
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
From the bestselling author of The Devil in the White City, here is the true story of the deadliest hurricane in history. National Bestseller September 8, 1900, began innocently in the seaside town of Galveston, Texas. Even Isaac Cline, resident meteorologist for the U.S. Weather Bureau failed to grasp the true meaning of the strange deep-sea swells and peculiar winds that greeted the city that morning. Mere hours later, Galveston found itself submerged in a monster hurricane that completely destroyed the town and killed over six thousand people in what remains the greatest natural disaster in American history--and Isaac Cline found himself the victim of a devastating personal tragedy. Using Cline's own telegrams, letters, and reports, the testimony of scores of survivors, and our latest understanding of the science of hurricanes, Erik Larson builds a chronicle of one man's heroic struggle and fatal miscalculation in the face of a storm of unimaginable magnitude. Riveting, powerful, and unbearably suspenseful, Isaac's Storm is the story of what can happen when human arrogance meets the great uncontrollable force of nature.
