The Earth is wrapped in a thick blanket of dense, dirt-infused cloud cover. It is the aftereffect of a massive slab of space debris slamming into the planet - potentially exterminating all animal life on the surface. Randy Tagget and several hundred survivors populate the Lifeboat Augusta, one of three orbiting space platforms intended to preserve human life. Tagget and his counterpart, Keisha Miller, launched into space with every intention of returning to earth as soon as it was safe.

Back Cover: Lucifer is the angel with a bad rap. True, he wasn’t called the Dark Angel for nothing. He was born for the mission of bringing dark energies to the Earth. And he has done so with passion and persistence. No one is more responsible than Lucifer for hell on Earth—the loneliness, the sickness, and the unspeakable violence experienced by humanity for hundreds of thousands of years. And yet …his profound efforts were aimed only at testing souls, forcing a balance between darkness and light, and in the process elevating Human—and Cosmic—consciousness. Get to know Lucifer—...

È la storia di due amici che decidono di lasciare la loro città (una mai nominata ma riconoscibile Dublino). Il progetto del viaggio viene frustrato da continui intoppi, contrattempi, incontri con personaggi strani e inquietanti, perfino un omicidio, e i due, alla fine, decideranno di fare ritorno alle rispettive case senza essere andati da nessuna parte, se non al bordello cittadino.
