What if God got a C- in Universe Building 101?(Well, not our God, of course. One of those other guys...)
Dive into a humorous fantasy world unlike anything you have imagined. A world of gods and goddesses who build universes for a living. Are they all-powerful and all-knowing? Well, not exactly...
As Bernie graduates from God School, he is thrilled to land his dream job as a builder of universes. His first assignment is to build his own universe. Determined but unsure, bright but without confidence, Bernie forges ahead, only to find problems everywhere. Mysterious asteroids, unexplained volcanoes, shifting continents and more lead him to suspect sabotage. But who could sabotage his universe? Only another god could do that.
It's god vs. god, guile vs. goodness, where only one of them plays by the rules. Bernie must find a way to outwit his vicious foe. If he fails, it will cost him everything.
A fascinating tale of good vs. evil and a young hero on a journey of self-discovery in an original, humorous, fantastic wrapper.
Visit the world of the gods
Discover answers to questions you never knew existed:-- What are the gods are really like?-- Why does their economy depend on the universes they build?-- How do the gods actually create something?-- Why do they study Creation Science and Creation Ethics?-- And, most importantly, why are the gods so afraid of the woods?
