The Last Days of Jericho

A monster is approaching the Bronze Age city of Yarich. It cannot be stopped. It cannot be turned aside. And the monster is...God Himself. The Canaanite city of Yarich is home to a society that is literate, cosmopolitan - and doomed. Sakal, caravan-master to the Melek or king of the city-state, recounts the tale of the increasingly desperate battle for survival waged by his urban culture against fanatical outsiders - nomads from the desert wielding a terrible supernatural power. Half Deuteronomy, half Gojira, Brookside's story examines the horror that arises from the knowledge of inexorable fate, and explores the moral ambiguity at the heart of the Old Testament tales that help make up the foundation of western civilization.
