Portrait of a Fallen Angel - Raoul Hawkins - Bog

- Apocalypse Generation

Bag om Portrait of a Fallen Angel

Frank Walker was a godless man. He saw no use in worshipping a higher power. However, he did see the power of religion and the way it could take hold over grand congregations. Perhaps that was why he chose to worship the devil, so long as it meant a frolic with Bacchus in the woods, bonfires, wild sex with naked maidens, and tumultuous music. Soon, Frank becomes known as the devil-worshipping prophet of a new religion. He gains a devoted following who await his every word. As he and his followers become further and further debauched by their demonic practices, Frank naively believes he can control the beast he has unleashed. However, Frank is in for an unfortunate surprise. He tells his followers the messiah is coming, but what will happen if the devil truly arrives? Like the mythological Icarus, Frank has perhaps flown too close to the sun. He begins to feel powerless over his followers and the forces he has summoned, for the devil is not a creature of order but of disorder. Will Frank find control, or will all hell break loose?
