"Steve, Charlie and Frank were just trying to get home when it happened. Now they find themselves left behind, and wishing they'd disappeared, too. Trapped in the ultimate traffic jam, they watch as civilization collapses, claiming the souls of those around them. God has called his faithful home, but the invitations for Steve, Charlie and Frank got lost. Now they must set off on foot through a nightmarish post-apocalyptic landscape in search of answers. In search of God. In search of their loved ones. And in search of home"--Publisher's website.

This novella is a reread for me, since it just came out in Audio.

I grew up in a fundamentalist pre-Tribulation Baptist Church. We were forced to watch the Rapture movie series A Thief in the Night over and over. As a kid I remember coming home and no one was there and believing I had been left behind. Since then I have been fascinated by Christian Eschatology and loved Brian Keene‘s take on it. Chet Williams delivers a solid performance.

swynn I remember that series and I remember the scares, though my background is fundamentalist Methodist. It's therapeutic to watch the movies as an adult, since they've become painful in an entirely different way. 6y
Guildedearlobe @swynn Well, I have to admit that I did drunk watch the series with some of my college friends and it was cathartic. 6y
