Gog and Magog: The Devil's Descendants, is a smart cat-and-mouse political fantasy thriller with unexpected twists and turns, and stands uniquely on its own in comparison to any other writings on this subject.
Satan is on a quest to bring about the End of Days in this riveting thriller by Jerry Pollock. Satan, banished from Heaven by God, begins his quest for world domination in the Garden of Eden, where he tempts Eve to eat a fig from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Traveling forward in time, Satan finds himself in present-day America—where the President and his son Cain are his descendants.
Standing between Satan and his unholy mission are some unforgettable characters who represent the good in humankind. Abel Slobodkin is a righteous young man, and doesn’t realize it, but he has been chosen by God to battle against Satan’s evil plans. He will clearly need the help of his future mother-in-law, Dr. Elizabeth Corsini, a brilliant psychiatrist at a Washington, DC, hospital. In the course of treating a mental patient, reporter Esther Hirsch, Elizabeth begins to realize that Esther’s recurring nightmare is not just the product of a troubled mind, it is both biblical in nature—and represents a covert operation being carried on by the White House. Elizabeth soon realizes there is a conspiracy in the works, called Code Name Daniel, and people involved are turning up dead.
She realizes she is next to be killed unless she, and her sister, FBI agent Daniela Corsini, trade their information on operation Code Name Daniel, for their lives.
A showdown takes place after the president wins reelection in 2020, and Cain becomes his powerful chief of staff. God and Satan order Abel and Cain to fight a duel, which takes place against the backdrop of Arlington National Cemetery. In a climax that is both harrowing and uplifting, God returns to make his presence known to Earth by performing miracles incredible to Him, and the hidden meaning of Gog and Magog is revealed.
Pollock, a Ph.D. in biophysics, is also a student of the Bible. He combines his love of spirituality and his scientific background to create his written works. Gog and Magog: The Devil’s Descendants is his third book. He is also the author of a memoir, Divinely Inspired: Spiritual AWakening of a Soul and a biblical fiction, Messiah Interviews: Belonging to God.
