Blameless in Abaddon
In Towing Jehovah, the discovery of the two-mile-long corpse of God in the mid-Atlantic proved a serious menace to both navigation and to faith. But was God truly dead, as the nihilists and the New York Times believed? In Blameless in Abaddon, His body - comatose yet far from inert - has been hauled from its temporary resting place in the Arctic to Florida, where it has become the Main Attraction at Orlando's Celestial City USA. And now one Martin Candle, a small-time and sore-afflicted judge practicing in Abaddon Township, Pennsylvania, proposes further travels for the Corpus Dei: to the World Court in The Hague, to answer for history's injustices large and small. In his quest to counter the world's great theodicies, Martin embarks on an astonishing odyssey through the mind of the Creator, where Lot's wife proves a most convenient way of adding salt to a margarita glass, early hominids vigorously debate Augustinian doctrine over jasmine tea, and Martin's alter ego, Job, keeps an eternal vigil atop his dung heap. Once the Trial of the Millennium has begun, Martin will understand why Abaddon is another name for Hell. God hunting simply is not a sport for amateurs.
The Call of Abaddon
Growing up is tough. But growing up with an ancient alien obelisk that wants to possess you? That’s a nightmare. Meet Jason, 18-year-old salvager, scraping by in the crumbling underbelly of New Toronto, a sprawling city-arcology on the radiation-blasted Earth’s surface. Life was already a battle for survival—until Jason’s dormant psychic abilities erupt and spiral out of control, triggered by a mysterious obelisk known only as the ABADDON BEACON. With the obelisk’s crazed whispers clawing at his mind, Jason and his companions are thrust into a desperate race to find Abaddon before it consumes him. Problem is, the Abaddon Beacon isn’t some forgotten relic—it’s buried deep within a top-secret United Earth Federation lab, locked away for over a century, the subject of dark, civilization-altering research. And Jason isn’t the only one hearing its call. The Emperor of the Solar Empire has his own sinister plans for the power of the Abaddon Beacon, and with his invasion fleets on the verge of striking Earth itself, the stakes have never been higher. With such a dangerous opponent, how can Jason hope to reach Abaddon … and even if he can, what cosmic horrors might be unleashed if he does? The Call of Abaddon is a modern mythological tale, delivering a wild, pulse-pounding and thought-provoking adventure, blending the political intrigue of Dune, the psychic fugitive chase of Firestarter, and the explosive world-building of The Expanse.

While following in Eric’s footsteps, Allison is whisked away, pulled 70,000 years into the past to end up in the fabled Atlantis. She finds the kingdom in shambles and under constant attack by strange creatures called the Abaddon. When Allison is captured by the creatures, the people of Atlantis deploy an ancient biological weapon to destroy them.
