Murphy's Second Death

Autor Oren Hammerquist
en Limba Engleză Paperback
Inventor, scientist, and philosopher Murphy Cayce only dreamed of showing the divinity in humanity. Humanity was not ready. Everyone has skeletons in their closet, but, when reincarnation moves from faith to fact, humanity must face fears they thought were dead and buried. If all souls must go on to Heaven or Hell, then which of the two is this life to the reborn? His miraculous invention allows people access to knowledge from their previous life, but society cannot function when faith and meaning are replaced with fact and knowledge. Murphy Cayce goes from visionary, to heretic, to prophet, to pariah as his invention spirals out of control with consequences he never foresaw. Would you rather die forever, or live forever; would you rather rest in peace, or live in contention? Is the price for immortality higher than paying the reaper? Murphy grows to hate his own invention-which he calls Pandora's Box without a lid. Before Murphy can bring meaning to society, he must find meaning in his own endless cycle of death and rebirth. Before he can save the world from its long dead fears and regrets, he must find a way to face his own eternal nightmares. In Murphy's Second Death, the science may fictional, but the social problems the characters face are all very real. This novel is written for genre and mainstream readers alike-anyone who hopes for meaning in life. Dozens of characters and complex interactions drive this world through careful a balance of humor versus sorrow, love versus vengeance, and tenderness versus violence.
