20th September 1959 11:55am: 
The existence of God is revealed to mankind. Mankind reacts.

This original concept weaves a labyrinthine narrative of human behaviour as a group of strangers collectively respond to the most significant event in recorded history. 

Whispers emerge of extraordinary events occurring around the globe. Miracles, or opportunists exploiting the hopeful? 
For some, putting it all on the line to find out is a chance they have to take:
A downtrodden father wants to redeem the damage he has done to his family. A lonely mother seeks to help her autistic child so that her husband will return to her. 
A fanatic takes violent exception to the news, and a morally confused criminal enlists the aid of free-spirited journalist to pull off an impossible deception.

Why the revelation, at this particular point in civilisation? Is Utopia on the horizon, or has the irrational nature of man now found a new catalyst to bring on self-destruction? 
The truth is far more sobering.

Note: This is an extract. Please google the title for access to the complete book!
Thank you for reading.

THE LEGACY: DAWN OF THE FALLEN ANGELS by bethski_117
61 parts Complete
It was said thousands of years ago that there was a great war in heaven, an epic battle between the angels, led by Archangel Michael, and the rebellious forces, led by Azrael. The rebellious angels were ultimately defeated and cast into eternal damnation. Yet, it is believed that some of these fallen angels descended to Earth, where they became known as the Fallen Angels. Shrouded in myth and mystery, these beings intertwined with humankind, leaving a legacy through their children. This is a story of the insatiable greed for power, both mortal and supernatural. Yet, amidst the darkness, there remains a flicker of light and goodness that emanates from the depths of the characters' struggles. This tale is purely a work of fiction. It does not depict true biblical accounts, nor does it intend to reference real individuals or places. Any similarities are purely coincidental. I dedicate this book to my dear friend Khail Narisma, who passed away two years ago. One of the characters in this story bears his name, with his kind permission, as a tribute to his memory. Khail was a soul of exceptional grace and warmth lovely soul, a lovely angel.

Every Hero Deserves a Blowjob [A Paranormal Romance] by aaronfhuston
24 parts Complete Mature
What happens when gods and goddesses fall in love? What happens when the hero isn't you? Everything seemed to have hit rock-bottom for Karma. A college educated former Marine and now a convicted felon, it would be easy to say divorce was hard. With a daughter on the way from a spur of the moment relationship, he was ready to accept whatever dead-end path life was heading. Lucky-or unlucky-for him, the gods found a suitable purpose for someone of his...caliber. Seduced by a succubus and dragged through the thin veil that separates dimensions, he found himself face-to-face with a woman chasing an invisible butterfly. Unaware of his circumstances and on the verge of being granted magic, he decided to help Ehma. There's no way he could know of the spell affecting the hotel's resident ghost or the plot that brought them stumbling into each other in another world. Ehma wasn't looking to be saved. In life, and in death, she took matters into her own hands. With a lifetime of manipulation and betrayal behind her, she just wanted to move on. This is no harem and definitely not a place for heroics. The women are powerful, the magic deadly, and the relationships...complicated. Jaded and disillusioned, Karma begins a journey to prove whether he's the man he thinks he is and whether he deserves the chance at redemption only true love can bring.

However, when a cascade of situations reap catastrophic consequences, God is nowhere to be found. Can a vampire, an assassin, angels, a demon, and a handful of mortals stop the domino effect? Or will the shadows that have begun to loom over Earth envelope the world completely? #EmpireAwards **CONTENT WARNING!** This is religious fiction regarding Christianity specifically.
