The Son, the Wind, and the Reign, Book One — Phil Farrand
It's a new millennium.
Jesus Christ and His followers have returned
To rule the Earth with a rod of iron for a thousand years.
Or have they?
And, how would you know the difference
Between aliens and the divine?
Avery Foster had always embraced the simplest response to the questions. For the twenty since the Coming he had ignored them. He had refused to think about the massive Judicial Center that had suddenly appeared in the center of town two decades before. He had refused to remember that it housed Judge Thomas Stone, an eight and one half foot titan who slaughtered anyone daring to rebel against the rulers of the new age. Quietly, head down, he plodded to work and plodded home.
But now, one week after the twentieth anniversary of the arrival of The Wind, Avery Foster hides in an alley, with a gun, waiting to kill the third person who enters. He's there on orders from Shana Dunham, a fierce, beautiful Resistance leader who has hidden the real reason she recruited him to her cause.
Soon, Avery Foster will raise the gun. Soon, he'll make his practiced pronouncement. Soon, he'll pull the trigger on a series of events that will eventually and inevitably bring him face to face with the terror of Judge Stone.
