Strange and astonishing prophecies from the saints come to life in a bone-chilling thriller. Guaranteed to make you rethink the apocalypse. Recipient of the Readers' Favorite® Five-Star Medallion. Winner of the Best Book Award of 2017 by Catholic Reads.Eighteen months ago, the Earth survived a comet strike. Famine, economic depression, and soaring crime rates rode in on its tail. While the government scrambles for solutions, Gina Applegate vlogs about college life and current events. God doesn't figure large in her life. Nonetheless, Gina thinks she's a pretty good person until a mystical event called The Warning gives her a glimpse of hell, shaking her fragile faith. As the world slips deeper into darkness, the battle of good and evil is building to a head. Gina must figure out who is on what side before it's too late. Before the comet comes, many nations, the good excepted, will be scourged by want and famine. The great nation in the ocean that is inhabited by people of different tribes and descent will be devastated by earthquake, storm, and tidal wave. It will be divided and, in great part, submerged . . . For in none of those cities does a person live according to the Laws of God. A powerful wind will rise in the North, carrying heavy fog and the densest dust, and it will fill their throats and eyes so that they will cease their butchery and be stricken with a great fear. ~Saint Hildegard (12th Century)CONTENT WARNINGS: The story is set in a secular world in a rapid decline. Expect some strong language, sexual situations, and violence.Comet Dust springs from a Catholic worldview. If Catholic beliefs bother you, this probably isn't a story you would enjoy.

Scary stuff." --J.Keating" . . . well imagined and crafted with compelling characters that readers will easily relate to, characters who will remind readers of their deep and silent yearnings and the questions they ask in the dead of night. There is enough action to keep the reader turning the pages and there are surprising twists in the already engaging plot." --Christian Sia, Readers' Favorite®"Despite the religious subject matter, it never felt like a sermon. The plot moved quickly. I never got bored." --Traci, Early ReviewerSecond EditionGenres: Apocalyptic, Catholic Eschatology, Christian Fiction, Dystopian, Fantasy, Horror, Paranormal Suspense, Supernatural, Thriller
