Rapture trilogy #3

The seven years of the Tribulation are almost over. The Apocalypse- the final battle between good and evil - is almost upon us and with it, the end of the world as we know it.

For the last seven years, the half-demon Samael has battled his inner demons as well as the very real demons that inhabit the desolate, ash-shrouded Earth. Betrayed by Heaven and Hell, cursed by the surviving humans that he strives to protect, separated from all those he loves – Sam’s existence is filled with death and despair.

Now he must make a choice. Continue to fight for those he swore to protect or leave them to their fate and join his father in Hell. The Apocalypse is coming and it isn’t going to wait for Sam to make up his mind.

### Review

*"While I'm sad to say goodbye to Sam and the other characters of the Rapture Trilogy, I've loved reading this series so much, and I can definitely recommend it to anyone that enjoys a good post-apocalyptic story that also has a mix of paranormal elements, great pacing and a main character that although flawed, is incredibly easy to like."* theaussiezombie.com

*"The author has taken the  story of the end-of-days as prophesied in the Bible and has asked, What If? What if were true, what if this came to pass? And I think he's done a masterful job of creating one possible answer to that. Both Christian and non-Christian readers can, and I'm sure will, enjoy this trilogy, that pits the ultimate good and the ultimate evil against each other, and focuses on what happens to those caught in the middle through no  fault of their own."* jlpawley.com/
