Once more, the earth shakes, repulsing in anger to
man's wickedness and distrust among his kind.
It's the end of times.
I shouted once more begging God, "Have mercy
on me Lord, end these sufferings now and the emptiness
that pervaded my heart."
Thrown to the walls of the church few feet from
where I knelt, my body dropped almost lifelessly then
lay among the rubbles of stones and choking dust.
Slowly, I open my eyes while groping for precious
air, breathing gradually, as life seems to fade minute by
minute and then, almost instantaneously, images flash
in animation.
A recollection of my past life resurfaces right before
my eyes like strips of cinematic film showing in quick
succession. Conjured pictures of dear loved ones pass
my consciousness...those of my two beloved daughters
and my wife.
Shortly at a distance, a tunnel of light emerges from
its tail end and a silhouette figure in white satin gown
appears. The manifestation becomes more familiar as it

from the author
This novel is purely a work of fiction. Nevertheless, some of the events mentioned in the story may have already happened and though imaginary characters depicted here rolled around these events, any resemblance to actual names of persons, living or deceased, real events and locales, is wholly coincidental.
Of Passion Play is humbly, my masterpiece.
It is my first book and though I've conceptualized the plot of the story a long time in the past, drawing the ornate first letter and writing the concluding word of the epilogue took almost a year to complete. The initial manuscript was edited, rewritten and re-edited several times for another five months until the final piece is done. But, publication became a standing block, a high wall to scale specially for first-time authors like myself wishing to have this printed. So, I decided to change strategy and transcribe Of Passion Play from traditional paperback format to a version in computerbytes and codes for viewing in the internet. I 've presented here as an overview of the book, excerpts from some exciting chapters which I hope you'll like.
