    About this ebook

    Angel or devil, who remakes the world?

     

    A generation of people live in order and peace. Corporation ushered in an era of prosperity. The price? Freedom. The populace lives in the daze of bliss.

     

    But a boy garners attention with a simple spoon. A small feat threatens to awaken the people.

     

    Now a warrior spirit questions his nature. Does he fight to the beat of an honorable heart? Or does a darker force spark within him?

     

    An epic ballad, Apocalypse traverses ravaged dystopias and false utopias. Governments oppress, the people rage, and the world wars with the poetry of a rock opera.

    Author

    Michael R.E. Adams

    MICHAEL R.E. ADAMS pens myths both natural and speculative. He invokes the lyricism of poetry and the suspense of genre fiction to create verse and prose in literary and SFF worlds. Portraying underrepresented groups, he seeks to expand the world’s imagination of who we can all be. He tells tales that all people can relate to, stories about the desire and fear of connecting to others and exploring our own hearts. (www.MichaelREAdams.com)

      The fear of death is very puzzling, in a way that regret about the end of life is not. It’s easy to understand that we might want to have more life, more of the things it contains, so that we see death as a negative evil. But how can the prospect of
