 It was some time after watching "Jurassic Park" that I noticed how much entertainment is infiltrated by the evolution presumption.  I know there are several excellent ministries that promote Creation Science: Institute for Creation Research (ICR), Answers in Genesis (AiG), Kent Hovind (drdino.com), and others.  But many people have only been reached by the media, and only peripherally by the classroom.  That's why I wrote this novel: to tell a story about how the culture (especially those with power) would respond to proof against evolution.  It's a suspense novel, but whit, I hope, a strong Christian, Biblical message.  It's available from amazon.com as a paperback or an ebook.  I hope it's a witness and a blessing!
