More about the book

Set in a future where religion is suppressed and a single world government is dominated by the anti-Christ, the narrative follows a priest who rises to become pope. The plot explores themes of faith and power through the conflict between the pope and a man who bears his identical appearance, who assumes the title of "Lord of the World." This apocalyptic tale delves into the consequences of a society that has turned away from spirituality, reflecting the author's own journey from the Church of England to Roman Catholicism.
