The Houska Deliverance
The Houska Duology
Description
George Castellano succeeded. Against all odds, he found God and delivered Lucifer's message. The covenant is fulfilled. The souls are safe. Shane's widow Heather can breathe again. Five-year-old Tyler gets to grow up without the threat of damnation hanging over his head.
There's just one small problem: Lucifer decided to keep George.
Now George is trapped in the pit beneath Houska Castle, watching the Devil pace and panic while waiting for God to respond. Days turn into weeks. Weeks turn into months. And just when George is ready to accept that he'll spend eternity as Hell's least enthusiastic houseguest, God finally shows up.
He looks exactly like XXXXXXXX_XXXXXXXXX. (Gotta have SOME surprise for you, don't we?)
What follows is a father-son reunion millennia in the making, complete with cosmic revelations, theological arguments, and the kind of family dysfunction that only happens when one party rebelled against Heaven and the other designed him to do it. George learns the truth about free will, predestination, and why God needed a villain in the first place.
Also, there's a t-shirt. It's terrible. Tyler loves it.
A heartfelt, hilarious conclusion to the Houska duology about reconciliation, second chances, and the cosmic joke that is existence. Featuring an ancient adversary learning to be a person again, a deity with impeccable comedic timing, and one very confused former atheist who just wants to go home.
Maybe—Lucifer claims he's never been to Georgia. Couldn't find it on Brother Thomas' Guide Map.
