LONGWOOD, FL" A supernatural action-based story, Alpha and Omega ($10.99, paperback, 978-1-61215-907-2; $5.49, e-book, 978-1-61215-704-7), a new fantasy thriller by Michael D. Garner Jr., draws on Scripture to portray the epic battle between good and evil, with Christ at the center. Portrayed ?"as they truly are, which is powerful and majestic,” God and His angels wage war in heaven with Lucifer and his minions until Jesus returns to earth to defeat Satan once and for all.

 

?"I was inspired to write this several years ago when I was watching a television program,” says Garner, ?"and one of the characters in the program said that there was no God or angels, and then it hit me like a bolt of lightning: What if God and his angels were portrayed as they truly are, which is powerful and majestic? I have written this story not to add or take away from the Bible but to try and put a descriptive and beautiful picture to what may have happened in heaven and what could happen in the final battle here on earth.”

 

In the book, Lucifer’s rebellion sparks the war in heaven between the angels loyal to God and those angels loyal to Satan. This first war leads the archangel Michael to face off against Satan in an epic struggle between good and evil. ?"Alpha and Omega ends with Jesus’ return, leading God’s army of angels against Satan’s army of demons, which will also lead to the final climactic battle between Jesus and Satan,” says Garner. The story"filled with angels, demons, beasts, sword clashing, and more"provides a vivid and detailed script of what has transpired in eternity past and that which is still to come, bringing the story of God’s overarching plan to life.
