The most fearsome Angel in Heaven, Azrael, the Angel of Death, takes his job very seriously. Father\u2019s project, \u2018The Plan,\u2019 is in full swing, and Azrael is happy to be of help. But when things go haywire and an underworldly plot of a Heavenly hostile takeover comes to surface, Azrael finds himself in the middle of a sinister conspiracy. Swan brings the fantastical world of the bible to life with vivid details. The dialogue is witty and the plotting imaginative. He also treats his diverse cast with complexity and thoughtfulness: there\u2019s Azrael who is sensitive, creative, and dutiful, and the wild perils he endures are peppered with endless riddles; Father as the creator shines. Add overbearing Angels, downtrodden Demons, persistent humans, and various other beings from the story of creation plus a dash of evolutionary process, and you&#8217;ve got an intriguing tale. Readers will find plenty of material for thought here, plus a touch of science, religion, and laughter.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">Death and Human Resources<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mark Swan<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Death-Human-Resources-Mark-Andrew\/dp\/B0B3DHMX57\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Death-Human-Resources-Mark-Andrew\/dp\/B0B3DHMX57\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pub date June 6, 2022<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ISBN 979-8834822431<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price $12.00 (USD) Paperback, $0.00 Kindle edition<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fun, exhilarating, wild romp\u2026 Swan makes his debut with this eternity-spanning humorous tale.
