God-Chosen Pigs by A.A. Castor is a dark, satirical allegorical novel that dismantles the myth of divine entitlement through the lens of a grotesque animal society. In a land where pigs walk upright, wear holy robes, and read from sacred scrolls, one truth governs all: they are the chosen ones, and everyone else-especially dogs-exist only to serve.
At the center of this fable is Martin Tomas de Innocent, a loyal, obedient dog desperate to be seen, to be blessed, and to be good. But in this world, goodness is defined by obedience, and obedience is rewarded with scraps, silence, and guilt. As Martin uncovers the horrifying truth behind the pigs' secret scrolls-texts that declare dogs as beasts, rape as permissible, and murder as justified-he must decide whether faith is submission or slavery.
This novel is not for the faint of heart. It's for readers who enjoy religious satire, political allegory, dystopian fiction, and dark metaphors that cut deep. Inspired by works like Animal Farm, The Trial, and The Handmaid's Tale, God-Chosen Pigs interrogates the weaponization of religion, the illusion of divine right, and the blind obedience of the masses.
Blending literary fiction, philosophical inquiry, and biting social commentary, the book invites readers to question inherited beliefs, sacred narratives, and who gets to claim God's voice. With powerful symbolism, unsettling parallels to modern theocracy, and poetic cruelty, this is not a story about pigs-it's a mirror held up to power, politics, and holy propaganda.
