An End-Times Novel I Might Enjoy...

Mark Hogan has it all. The job. The family. A position on the board at church. All he’s missing is a boat. Not just any boat—a 2008 Bayliner 192.

When Reverend Daniel Glory announces that the Rapture is taking place on October 17 at 5:51am, Hogan realizes his boat–buying days are numbered. So he does what any man in his situation would do—he borrows a load of money from the mob.

Not that there’s any risk involved: After all, when the Rapture comes, Hogan will be long gone. The mob will never find him.

But when Jesus fails to come back on schedule, Mark Hogan finds the mob is in no mood to discuss the finer points of end–times theology...

Note to self: Never Post about the End Times again. Never. Not even in jest. The wackos will find me out and leave self promoting comments.

Its hard to know which one to read first: the book or secret rapture's blog...they both sound so similar...

bj:
The blog and the book are identical.

Yes, I am indeed a far out Space Cadet.
Within months, if not years, by my hand, we will be in the post apocalyptic world of 'Jericho' on TV! Stay tuned!

Uncle Jakey: Well said. Couldn't have put it better myself.

Secret Rapture is a blog troll who surfs the net looking for any hint of comments on end times so he can promote himself.

Yes, I'm a type of spammer - after traffic to my site. I do try to read what is said before I leave a post.

But your initial comment never actually relates to the post. It is simple self promotion.... why would anyone bother listening when all you offer is self promotion?

But you were discussing an End Times novel on the Tribulation, which is what my site is about.

Geekery said...

Ok boys, play nice.

If it doesn't pertain to my post about Tribulation House, a book that pokes fun at the rapture, don't comment.

If you try promoting you website again on my blog SR, I'll start deleting your comments.

Have a nice day.
