The Paradise Prophecy

mankind wont exist for Robert Browne as he has brought the war from heaven to earth.

Robert Browne produces a novel that reads like an amalgam of Jim Butcher and Dan Brown in 8221;The Paradise Prophecy.8221; In this thriller,the War in Heaven has come to Earth,and mankind will soon be extinct.

The cast of characters includes Sebastian LaLaurie,a theologian who developed a drinking problem after the death of his wife,and Bernadette Callahan,who works for the U.S. government and is starting to lose all sense of reality.

When Callahan is assigned to investigate the apparent suicide of a popular young singer in Brazil,her life will be changed forever.

LaLaurie is teamed up with Callahan when it appears that the singer was murdered and that others have fallen prey to a killer with seemingly supernatural abilities. Their investigation leads them to a secret organization with the sole purpose of keeping ancient documents like a lost chapter of Milton8217;s 8221;Paradise Lost8221; and several missing pages from a book called the 8221;Devil8217;s Bible8221; hidden from the beings that could use them to destroy the world.

8221;The Paradise Prophecy8221; is hard to describe. The unfolding events become more fantastical,and it8217;s sometimes difficult to tell one demon from the other. The initial transition to the supernatural is also a bit jarring. However,once the reader adjusts to the novel8217;s tone and scope,the pages cannot fly by fast enough.

The shocking end will compel everyone to want to talk about the reading experience with others as much as Browne seems to be hinting at more to come. Readers of horror and dark fantasy should consider a dip into the Robert Browne pool.
