Publisher's summary

The seven Seals were broken and the trumpets sounded, their notes echoing around the world. Four horsemen had emerged from the midst of roiling storms and set loose upon humanity. Civilization ended in smoke and flame with clouds of radioactivity encircling the globe. 144,000 had been marked and were the only survivors, driven underground by the poisonous conditions and the nuclear winter which followed the exchange of atomic weapons. The exception is a valley held under the protection of four angels holding a corner of the world free. Those few who remain hold the future hope for humanity in a land where the darkness holds sway. As demons walk freely among the sanctuaries, will they be able to upset the balance and drive the last vestige of light from the land?

great second part to a great series

I read it, loved it! But listening to it is a whole different level of horror as to what can very well become of humanity if pushed to the limit. some will break, others will gain strength to do right and wrong each believing they are right. Others will use it a an opportunity to continue there way, whether for good or bad.
John O'Brien has given us these scenarios in spades. The action is centered on the aftermath of humanity's near destruction with a smattering of hope and desolation which in my opinion is but a stepping stone to the true horror yet to come.
I was also impressed with the amount of research he has done to give us an idea of what the reader can expect.(his research of Angels and Demons is very well done, although he does admit to some liberties taken). In all, it was very well written and left me just a little unsettled in his insight of events that, while they might not be plausible, could very well be possible. Kudos once again Mr. O'Brien for a very well written take of....terror...horror? you decide...

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
