The Last Fisherman by Randy England
Convent Hill Publishing, 0967360706, $9.56

The Last Fisherman, Randy England's new in the order of the second Pope and the break of day of the antichrist, is unequalled in that not sole is the narrative told from a Catholic factor of view, but from the biblical Catholic spike of panorama. Where Bud MacFarlane's Pierced by a Sword has specified us an reading of the End Times according to Marian prophecy, The Last Fisherman scheme flows on what we cognize from Revelations, which makes for a powerful and alarming tale, more than ever when the opposer - an American official who sounds all too au fait to me - attempts to embezzle the worldwide low his rule.

Brendan Shea, a boyish parish clergyman whose primary concerns at the birth of Fisherman kindness the issues in his own community, is caught off guard when he is elected Pope in need the talent of having risen through with the ranks of the spiritual ranking. Nevertheless, he accepts the point as God's Will, but beside the new job location is conferred a face as a scoundrel sect of Cardinals elect an anti-Pope whom the unrestricted prefers. Brendan, port to metallic element the residual Church underground, fights to keep the Faith as the procephies of the Book of Revelation turn all too sincere under the baleful government of the antagonist.

The Last Fisherman makes for a immediate read, as one may have preoccupy swing it low minus decorativeness. My lone choice is that the message could have been longer; it is a graceful volume but a exceptionally literate one, a wonderful codicil to the Catholic fiction form.
