You’re reading this and saying to yourself, “Yeah, right. A book written by an Angel in Heaven. No way.” One day you’ll find out I’m telling the truth. On that day, I’ll get the last laugh… and you’ll be dead.
But come on, give me a break. I’ve been dealing with you dead humans for far too long. Not that all of you are troublesome, I just can’t take another soul to the Gates of Hell. And humans aren’t even the worst part. You try dealing with Archangel Michael and the bureaucracy of Heaven Inc. for millennia. It’s no wonder I wanted out. But when a bunch of knucklehead angels go rogue, I get pulled in. And things go from bad to worse when I’m forced to enter Hell to save my only friend.
And that’s just the beginning. If you think you know the Genesis mythos, you don’t. I, on the other hand, watched it all go down. This is my story, and I’m telling it my way.
