So why now?</em> And why this</em> guy?</p><p><br></p><p>Scotty Butterfield is a recluse. A college dropout clinging to a dead-end job and a rundown sublet in New York City, where he lives with his cat and spends his nights lost in fantasy videogames.</p><p><br></p><p>The government is in the hands of hardline fundamentalists, the country slipping into a dystopia, when Scotty's bleak fortunes suddenly grow worse. He begins to receive emails from someone calling himself a "Messenger of the Lord." The emails warn of imminent death and destruction in the city. An obvious scam.</p><p><br></p><p>Yet the predictions bear out.</p><p><br></p><p>Stunned, Scotty fears he's caught up in some terrorist plot. Only to realize, the disasters are impossible for any human to foresee or stage--all caused by uncontrollable forces of nature. Acts of God. Just as the Messenger claims.</p><p><br></p><p>Is Scotty going nuts, or could these prophecies truly be divine? He's about to be thrust onto the national stage to confront a paradox unlike anything the world has ever known, with the future of humanity hanging in the balance.</p><p><br></p><p>The Prophet of Queens is a mind-bending, genre-bending mashup. A wild ride of twists and turns that will challenge your sanity, keep you guessing, and reward you with a powerful climax you will never see coming.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Intense.
