The End of Time by Randall Towe is a science fiction fantasy about the coming of the end of the world.

Julie has had a childhood nightmare about terrifying aliens that kidnap her and perform horrifying and unspeakable procedures on her. These aliens, or Elohim, worship Satan and have been altering Julie’s genetic makeup so she can host and bring Satan’s child to life. After the last encounter, Julie became sick and she discovers that she is pregnant. Her doctor tried to find out what was happening, but Satan minions became aware. All the people who knew about Julie were kidnapped, mind wiped, and returned as drones to do Satan’s bidding. Julie obtained divine assistance and was guided in how to escape. She gave birth to Catherine, but soon she left her and led the followers of Satan to keep her daughter safe. Catherine grew up in a loving family with an older brother Darien, who loved Catherine. He promised to be with her always. Catherine grew into a gifted young woman and she and Darien planned their lives together to find the stars and visit Orion’s belt. Catherine and Darien were on their way when Satan’s followers wrenched then apart and gave Catherine a terrible choice, to accept Satan or watch Darien be tortured repeatedly and then killed. Catherine gives in and Darien escapes, which sets in motion both Satan plans and the divine scriptures that foretell the occurrences about the end of the world. Will Darien stay alive long enough to save Catherine and prevent the destruction of all mankind? Will Catherine and Darien’s love be strong enough to overcome all of the obstacles that life is throwing at them?

The End of Time is a fascinating mixture of science fiction and scriptures. The unique way Mr. Towe wove them together portrayed a realistic and scary way of looking at the book of Revelations. I loved how even in the worst of times, a mother’s love for her child overcomes all obstacles. The family that took Catherine set in motion the only chance that Catherine had to have a normal and loving family. Catherine and Darien loved one another and even when Catherine was under Satan’s control, you could still see that somewhere inside her, she had very strong feelings for Darien. Darien would go to hell and back to save her. In the end, Catherine proved that she was a worthy mate for Darien when she potentially sacrificed herself to save another. This book hooks the reader from the very beginning and keeps the reader in suspense until the very end. I hope to read more books by Mr. Towe.
