The World Fantasy Award–winning novel of a female deity trying to save a modern world gone mad—“Invites comparisons with Vonnegut and even Rushdie” (The Washington Post). Rejoice! A new messiah has come, and her name is Julie. Born to Murray Katz, the solitary (and celibate) keeper of an abandoned lighthouse on the Jersey shore, our protagonist arrives on Earth boasting supernatural abilities evocative of her divine half brother, Jesus. As a child, she revels in her talent for walking on water, resurrecting dead crabs, and treating fireflies as luminous alphabet blocks. But after she reaches adolescence, her life becomes as challenging and ambiguous as any mortal’s. Not only is Julie Katz obliged to deal with a silver-tongued devil and self-righteous neo-Christian zealots, she must also figure out what sort of mission her mother—the female Supreme Being—has in mind for her. At once outrageous and affirming, this Nebula Award finalist is a magnificent work of contemporary satire that holds a mirror up to human nature, astutely reflecting our species’ failings, foibles, and often misguided affections.

The fifth issue of the Interdisciplinary Journal for Religion and Transformation in Contemporary Society (J-RaT) centers on the topic of religion, transformation and sex/gender. The focal point will be on religious and cultural transformation processes and their repercussions on gender roles, constructs and representations on the one hand, and on sex and/or gender transformations which are embedded in the context of specific religious traditions on the other. Transformation is understood here as change, alteration and reformatting. The multifaceted connections between religion, transformation and sex/gender are concretized in an abundance of material and symbolic phenomena and are examined starting from different subject-specific and methodical approaches.

Help me help you. Our Lady of Unity is pleading to all Gods children to help her in helping us reached the most difficult and demanding journey to our heavenly homeland. A hundred years ago at Fatima, Portugal, she appeared to the three little children and brought the message of repentance, prayer, penance and fasting and the whole world paid serious attention when thousands saw the miracle of the spinning sun. The miraculous event drove millions back to the church. However, the new age had strayed adopting a new culture of life contrary to the Gospel leading so many to eternal death. She revealed to the community that tens of thousands of souls were lost every single day because of gross negligence in taking great care of their immortal soul with their refusal to believe and embrace the message of the Gospel. As the world closes in of its final phase of existence, our Lady with the assistance of her community are working fervently and devoutly for the conversion of Gods wayward children to the true church. She is calling all to be baptized in the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit so one can be integrated to the Body of her Son so salvation is possible. She repeatedly warns that no one can come to the heavenly Father except through her Son. Our Lady reminded us that through her we can be united with Jesus making us truly a real part of Him. But her greatest enemy had deceived billions including Christians by ignoring or marginalizing her intercessory powers to the Triune God. To ensure ones salvation it is truly wise to have both Jesus and Mary on our side.

Nebula Award Finalist: A fantastical and darkly comic tale of nuclear apocalypse that “begins where Dr. Strangelove ends” (The Philadelphia Inquirer). George Paxton is a simple man, happy enough with his job carving inscriptions on gravestones. All he needs is a high-tech survival garment—a scopas suit—to protect his beloved daughter in the event of nuclear Armageddon. But when George finally acquires the coveted suit, the deal comes with a catch: He must sign a sales contract admitting to his complicity in the nuclear arms race between the US and the Soviets. Inevitably, the bombs fall, and our hero finds himself imprisoned on a submarine headed for Antarctica, where he and five other survivors will stand trial for “crimes against humanity.” George Paxton’s accusers are no ordinary plaintiffs: They are “the unadmitted,” potential people whose hypothetical lives were canceled in consequence of humankind’s self-extinction. In the months that follow, George’s dark journey will take him through the hellscape that was once the Earth, through a human past that has become as unthinkable as the human future, to his day in court before the South Pole tribunal, and finally into the intolerable heart of loss. From the World Fantasy Award–winning author of Only Begotten Daughter and Towing Jehovah, this is an “astute, highly engaging, and . . . moving” journey into a bizarre postapocalyptic world (Los Angeles Times).
