Book excerpt: DELUGE is a continuation of the two part Biblical series following DEATH RODE A WHITE HORSE. Noah, the descendent of Adam and Eve, has built the Ark. A user of alcoholic drinks, the sinful citizens of Ur fail to take his message seriously. The trickster, Lucifer, wants to make Creator angry enough to make him destroy his own people. Ham, third son of Noah, saves Jezebel from the flood. When the two have a son, Canaan, Noah puts a curse on the lad. Also saved from drowning are the descendents of ben-Able who are high in the Kargos Mountains with their animals. The current ben-Able risks the wrath of his people by forcing them to go higher up the mountain than the people and animals can safely go. Eventually ben-Able and his people join up with Hams family and head for Canaan to plant Creators people near the holy city of Jerusalem. DELUGE brings the Biblical characters into sometime hilarious situations when Lucifer and Creator and their followers pit their wits against each other. Lucifer not only destroys Creators people, but the flood reaches to Canaan and destroys Lucifers people. Lucifer is forced to save Ham in order to have people descending from Jezebel. While Lucifer takes the bodies of fish, fowl, and animals to save Ham and Jezebel, Creator and Gabriel soar above the flood in their chariot. This version of the Bible has a science fiction affect mixed with comedy, tragedy, and some very serious moments.
