A supernatural dystopian thriller set on 2045, follows the course of events in the life of celebrated atheist writer Daniel McBride. This is a spiritual tour-de-force as well as an exciting Science Fiction, told in the style of classic 50s and 60s Sci-Fi stories.
This is the latest book and debut novel from author, folklorist and amateur historian Luke Eastwood, who has previously had success with titles such as “Scotia: Lost Sister of Tutankhamun” (now in 3 languages), “Kerry Folk Tales”, “Samhain” and “The Druid’s Primer”. Spring 2045, in a dystopian and authoritarian London, Daniel McBride, the poster boy for English Atheism finds himself on a gruelling, government sponsored, book tour. His worldview is shattered by a singular event that will change his life forever.
The Hereafter: God And Other Fairy Tales, the debut novel of author Luke Eastwood, is an exciting thriller with spiritual overtones set in England, Scotland and Ireland. It crosses genres but pays homage to classic 20th century Sci-Fi, while also drawing on some of the spiritual ideas found in the Nag Hammadi gospels, and the works of many writers that acknowledge an existence beyond ‘everyday’ reality. The core of the story is about an unexpected epiphany, freedom of choice, religious intolerance, spiritual awakening, and what it is that makes life worth living or dying for.
‘William Gibson meets Lorna Byrne.’
A thoughtful supernatural thriller debut, exploring belief, morality and a search for meaning.” ALLY BUNBURY, author of ‘All Wrapped Up’ & ‘The Inheritance’
“A riveting, action-packed, page-turner, blending suspense, adventure, and metaphysical inquiry. It fearlessly raises questions about God, religion, consciousness, freedom and the resilience of the human spirit. It invites you to imagine what our future could be, but also what it means to remain truly human in the face of overwhelming control.” ELENA DANAAN, author of ‘The Seeders’ and ‘Resilience : Beyond the Impossible’
