Guest Post – The Last Drive by John W. Howell #newbook

Let’s all welcome John Howell to the Entertaining Stories blog. John is a dear friend, one of my collaborators at Story Empire, and a prolific blogger. He’s also one hell of an author.

I am so pleased to be with you today, Craig`. I want to thank you for helping to spread the word about The Last Drive. I have been impressed on your ability to develop characters and storylines that are chock full of personality and excitement. I had not thought about creating a sequel to Eternal Road. One day though it struck me that the story was probably half finished. I decided that the characters deserved to at least have a story that was a definitive conclusion. I’m glad to say that I feel the story is complete now.

Here is the blurb and then we can get to a short excerpt from the book.

The Blurb

In the sequel to Eternal Road – The final stop, Sam and James are reunited to look for two souls, Ryan and Eddie. Ryan was killed in Afghanistan, trying to avoid a schoolyard with his crippled plane. Eddie Rickenbacker, Ryan’s hero, is to guide Ryan to his Eternal Home, and now both are missing.

The higher-ups believe that there has been some interference in Ryan and Eddie’s journey by Lucifer, so Sam and James have the task of finding Ryan and Eddie to get them back on the road despite the evil interference. Unfortunately, the machinations designed to prevent Ryan and Eddy from completing their journey take the pair to horrifying testing grounds. The places visited represent the best work of the Devil. They are the trenches of World War I in France, gladiators at the Roman Coliseum, the sinking Titanic in 1912, Hiroshima 45 minutes before the bomb, and the Auschwitz concentration camp in 1943.

This book is for you if you like plenty of action, strong characters, time travel, and a touch of spiritual and historical fiction. So, join Sam and James as they try to find the missing souls while staying one step ahead of the Prince of Darkness, who is determined to destroy all that is good.

An Excerpt.

“First of all, God is too busy to concern Himself with the whereabouts of one soul.”

Sam holds up two fingers. “Two?”

The Archangel waves his hand. “Whatever. The point is, it is my job to run interference on these kinds of problems so God can focus on the important stuff.”

Sam shrugs. “I would think having Lucifer run wild with souls on the Eternal Road is crucial.”

“Yes, but it is still not worthy of Divine Intervention.” The Archangel flushes with frustration.

“So, you want me to go and find the two of them with no backup from the Chief?”

The Archangel frowns. “I do not know what the big deal is all of a sudden. You handled Lucifer just fine the last time.”

“I had to call back home and get someone to come down and smite him.”

The Archangel sits up straighter. “Yes, and if that is the situation this time around, we can do the same thing.”

“Promise?”

The Archangel’s eyebrows jump in surprise. “I am an Archangel, for Heaven’s sake. My word is golden.”

Sam glances down. “Sorry, Sir. I get nervous when I think of having to take on Lucifer alone.”

“So, take James with you. You two seemed to hit it off, and he proved valuable, as things turned out.”

Sam shakes her head. “I don’t know about that, Sir. James fell in love with me, and I broke his heart. He might not want to go along. Even if he did offer to go, there’s a genuine chance he’ll fall in love all over again.”

“You know we have ways to handle that eventuality. James has not thought about you once since you left him in his Eternal Home.”

Sam stares the Archangel in the eye. “You sure?”

The Archangel holds her gaze. “I guarantee it.”

Sam shrugs. “Well, then it might work. I do think James would be a great partner for this kind of mission.”
