A futuristic, humorous retelling of the book of Jonah. This is a page-turning short novel written from Jonah's point of view, painting a picture of a has-been prophet, faced with one last great adventure. Although the tone is light-hearted, the story contains a serious message – that no one, prophet of God or enemy of God, is out of his sight or beyond his mercy.
Daunted by the post he keeps receiving from a message-bot, the pernickety prophet Jonah hops aboard the haulage cruiser Sheol II for a galaxy-traversing adventure. He doesn't mind where, so long as it's as far away from Nineveh as possible.
But God seems to have other plans. What will Jonah do when the journey to Tarshish doesn't go as expected? Will he save his fellow space-travellers from calamity?
An enjoyable read for youth and adults alike, you will be gripped by the futuristic misadventures of the prophet. Also contains the Good News version of the book of Jonah, and is suitable as a gift or Bible engagement aid for Christians and non-Christians who enjoy imaginative retellings of Bible stories.
