The Mark and the Martyr

"Emunah Short Story Collection Volume 2: The Mark and the Martyr" plunges readers into the heart of the Great Tribulation, where faith is a shield and survival a desperate race. In "Mei", a clone handler for Beast Corp-the Antichrist's sinister empire-awakens to the truth at the Rapture's edge and bolts for the survival camps, hunted by the forces she once served. "Liam's Dark Secrets" traces a cultural Christian's spiral-adultery before the Rapture, abandonment after it, and a chilling job with the Beasts-culminating in his refusal to worship the Antichrist, a stand that costs him his life. "Lydia's 12 Christmases" spans a woman's journey from pre-Rapture ignorance to post-Rapture conversion, her faith tested across twelve perilous holidays until her camp falls to Tribulation's wrath. And in "Mary's Flight", a Jewish woman who made Aliyah before the Rapture endures abandonment and relentless danger, holding out for Christ's return against all odds.

Collecting Books 5 to 8 of the Emunah Short Stories, this volume weaves a tapestry of suspense and salvation. From the sterile labs of Beast Corp to the smoldering ruins of survival camps, each tale pulses with thriller intensity-deception unravels, loyalties fracture, and courage rises amid chaos. Perfect for fans of apocalyptic fiction, "The Mark and the Martyr" delivers a raw, unflinching look at humanity's final stand, where the mark of the Beast meets the martyr's unbreakable spirit.
