********

Thomas Allbaugh welcomes media interviews, opportunities to read/sign his novel, Apocalypse TV, and lively discussions re religion and spirituality in the 21st Century.
********

His whole life has been a sham because he can’t accept responsibility
 for his failure to live by his own convictions.—Apocalypse TV

SUMMARY:

Mild-mannered Walter Terry, a beleaguered Christian intellectual professor struggles with reality, religion, and his own authenticity in Race to the Apocalypse, a Reality TV Game Show that brings together religious fanatics, atheists, zombies, the FBI, and “Elvis” as essential players in Thomas Allbaugh’s tightly wound, seriously hilarious novel, Apocalypse TV. Will Walter take up arms against the troubles unleashed upon him by unseen production forces or end up slaughtered as the show’s designated “sacrificial lamb”?

REVIEWS:

Apocalypse TV argues against the extreme notion that only members of a certain faith are favored by God, while making a case for spiritual salvation through love, faith, hope, service…
and the willingness to persevere
.Midwest Book Review

I was caught up from the opening pages to the end of this entertaining novel.
Allbaugh has created a story to savor, and one that readers will not soon forget.
Joseph Bentz, author of A Son Comes Home and Nothing is Wasted

Allbaugh challenges readers to consider conflicting perspectives related to social issues and faith . . .
leaves an impression that lingers long after the last page is read.
