WORCESTER, Mass., Sept. 23, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- The battle between good and evil has raged since the dawn of time. The end of the world hinges on this war, which has been foretold by many sages and prophets, from Paul to Nostradamus. In the thrilling new novel, The Coming...of the First Son (now available through 1stBooks), by Andrew Leigh, the war between Lucifer and mankind escalates to new heights and three men take on the Prince of Darkness before the world is destroyed.
Jack Thornton is an ordinary man. He goes to work every day at the post office, delivers the mail and returns home to his telescope. An amateur astronomer, Jack sees something in the night sky that sends him on a quest to find out if the Christ child has been reborn or if Lucifer is deceiving humans in an attempt to rule the world. Jack's journey takes him through four decades and across the world, from California to the Middle East to a small dusty town in Nevada. Two police detectives, who've witnessed some of Lucifer's evil work, join Jack in the search.
Will this trio of ordinary men be able to withstand the overwhelming power of the Prince of Darkness or will they lose the battle and their lives to Lucifer? With a twist that "will set the religious and non-religious communities back on their heels," The Coming...of the First Son brings readers an exciting tale of the age-old war of good versus evil.
A native of New England, Leigh lives in Worcester, Mass., where he is an abstract artist and insurance broker. The Coming is his second novel. His first book, Chills and Spirits, is a murder mystery about a 200-year-old Indian chief and his curse.
"I attempt to write to entertain...I do my best to address some social issues in my writings but by no means are they a major factor to my storylines," Leigh states.
