More Description

This novella is the story of a heroic occupant of the chair of St. Peter, the two hundred sixty sixth Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. He sets about confronting and fixing the endemic problems of the Church and many of its most destructive policies and teachings. He is met with strong opposition from the Vatican community which he gradually overcomes. The final apocalypse is a scene of horror but ultimately one of hope for the future. If you are a non-Catholic, with doubts about the values and behaviour of the Church and the organisation that runs it, you may feel sympathy with the man who confronts its problems so directly and courageously. And if you are a devout Catholic, you will undoubtedly find his story painful, but ultimately you are likely to rejoice at the heartening results of his heroic journey.
