Download or read book The Pope Moves to Manyberries written by Alan Donnell and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2023-11-14 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pope walks out of the Vatican and into the rest of the world. He quickly becomes more famous than he ever was, and sightings of the Pope are reported across the globe including The Last Ranchman bar in Manyberries, a village in the lower righthand corner of Alberta. As the Pope sits alone, looking like a broken-down cowboy in a neon JESUS SAVES T-shirt and dunking fries in beer, the barroom regulars debate if he’s really the pontiff. With 97.3 percent of Manyberries’ population of 75 in agreement that the man in the bar is the Pope, the expected boost in tourism fails to materialize. Instead there is a series of strange events—infidelity, murder, spontaneous human combustion—until the pontiff is found on top of the town’s grain elevator with arms outstretched as if he’s gathering in the world. At the “end of Civilization itself,” as the locals call Manyberries, almost anything can—and does—happen. “Block” Broderick Crawford III tells this surreal tale of a handful of quirky residents whose lives are turned upside down—or right side up?—by the Pope’s presence. Block shares his own story alongside the town’s and its motley crew of characters and historic figures—from the inventor of the “sex box,” Wilhelm Reich, to Ordinarius Professor, Kaspar Heisenberg, father of the father of the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Although Block is heartbroken by his sometime girlfriend Genevieve La Guadeloupe—who is found lying on top of the Pope in a field during a summer snowstorm—and ponders the foibles of human existence, he continues to search for meaning in an increasingly irrational world. Absurdist yet hopeful, The Pope Moves to Manyberries is a spirited satire that will appeal to the guileless and jaded alike.

It is the manner in which these authors try to accomplish this end that determines whether they appear in the volume.

After the death of his father, Sam is still struggling to come to terms with the Illuminate powers that he inherited, the changes that the alien nanites have wrought on his body, and the mysterious summons calling to him, urging him to come and retrieve “his birthright.” After separating himself from his friends, Sam realizes the call is coming from the Primarch, an ancient spaceship and the first of the Voidborn, a digitized Illuminate consciousness, that was driven insane after it was left drifting lost and alone in space for thousands of years. It’s calling to him to join the fight and destroy the Vore. But just as Sam thinks he finally has an ally against the Vore, he realizes the Primarch has an agenda all its own… As the final conflict takes place in the skies above the Grand Canyon, Sam is forced to confront the fact that even with some surprising new allies, the price for defeating the Earth’s invaders may be vastly more than he is prepared to pay. One thing is certain, whatever happens, life will never be the same for Sam—or for the rest of humanity—ever again.
