📚 WHAT THE BOOK IS ABOUT

A novel about a sister storming a god's palace after his return causes an apocalypse.

Birdman’s visions of burning snow and blood-filled floods were not enough to prepare him for the reality of his father’s return. The Dear Creator has come back, bringing destruction with him. Vallesia finds herself caught between her duty to understand this wrath and the consequences of having set him free. Her sister Dahlia takes a more direct approach, aiming to punch the deity in the face after demanding answers at his palace. This dynamic creates tension between intellectual unraveling and physical confrontation. The story examines what humans can do when faced with unjust divine power. It is not a tale of easy redemption but a complex look at family bonds broken by cosmic forces.

📝 Description: Dear Creator

Asta Geil’s novel Dear Creator presents a narrative centered on divine abandonment and subsequent retribution. The story begins with the return of the Dear Creator after a twenty-two year absence, triggering an apocalypse marked by surreal and violent imagery. These events include floods of black tar-like blood, snowflakes that ignite upon contact with the ground, and bonfires composed of corpses. The protagonist, Birdman, witnessed these signs in his visions long ago, yet he failed to foresee that his beloved Vallesia would be the key to freeing her father. Vallesia’s sister, Dahlia, seeks justice for the suffering caused by this divine injustice. Her plan involves storming the Creator’s palace to demand answers and physically confront him. Meanwhile, Vallesia works to unravel the reasons behind the Creator’s wrath. The narrative questions human agency in the face of godly power. It appeals to readers who enjoy supernatural fiction with a focus on familial conflict and apocalyptic themes. Those seeking traditional horror or linear plots may find this approach unconventional. The book is published by Fedowar Press, LLC, and released in 2022.
