<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Set in the near future, this is prophetic warning about where the United States, as a nation, may be headed. A politically torn nation watches as the Republicans solidify their hold over the US with a series of electoral victories and judicial appointments. Mike Pence leads the country, succeeding Donald Trump as the flag-bearer of an increasingly dogmatic movement. There are parts of the country, however, that cannot abide by what they view as a betrayal of the nation's founding principles. At what point do these communities break down and the unthinkable suddenly becomes the only possible solution...the end of the Union. Harry Turtledove, James Morrow, and Cat Rambo give us three novellas, each following the other, describing the frightening possible consequences of our increased polarization--a dire warning to all of us about where America may be headed unless we can learn to come together again."--Provided by publisher.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The most relevant science fiction release of 2020 by three award-winning authors</b> <p> <i>"In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed."</i>-- First Corinthians 15:52 <p> From <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author, Harry Turtledove, critically-acclaimed novelist, James Morrow, and Nebula Award finalist, Cat Rambo, comes a masterful anthology of three sensational novellas depicting a dark fictional future of the United States. <p> <i>And the Last Trump Shall Sound</i> is a prophetic warning about where we, as a nation, may be headed. Mike Pence is President of the United States after years of divisive, dogmatic control by Donald Trump.

Once united communities break down and the unthinkable suddenly becomes the only possible solution: the end of the Union. <p> The authors' depiction of a country that is both unfamiliar and yet unnervingly all too realistic, make you realize the frightening possible consequences of our increased polarization--a dire warning to all of us of where we may be headed unless we can learn to come together again. <p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Cat Rambo</b> <p> Cat Rambo is a prolific science fiction and fantasy writer of short stories.
