The Enochian Wars: Armageddon Unleashed is a future-gothic horror fantasy novel by author Frank Julius Palumbo. An ancient planet filled with horrific winged gargoyles is about to return to an orbit beside the humble planet Earth, bringing with it a prophecy that humanity will be harvested, no soul left in existence. Whilst the whole world is thrown into chaos by the double threat of invasion and annihilation, the focus of this novel rests on New York City, where veteran cop Jack Savage is about to put his unconventional methods to the ultimate test. He has been practising Enochian magick for some time, and the imminent worldwide destruction gives Jack a great opportunity to take on the universe.
Frank Julius Palumbo’s omniscient narration style gives the opening of The Enochian Wars: Armageddon Unleashed a slick crime novel feel, adding believability to Jack’s character and to the incredible and horrific events which follow in the plot. Gritty and hard-nosed throughout, Palumbo creates a cast of generally very unlikable characters, whom the reader still manages to root for, feel for, and celebrate with through their moments of triumph. Willie-Be-Good is a particularly vile example whom I couldn’t get enough of. This commitment to character development, coupled with the vivid descriptive elements that one would expect from high fantasy fiction, makes for an intense read that really drives its horror elements home the more the plot goes on. Expect big action, big gore, and even bigger carnage in this apocalyptic and thrilling ride.
Planet Nibiru, known to the ancient Sumerians and spoken about in their writings on
stone tablets thousands of years ago, has returned from its long orbit around the sun. This time, the inhabitants, huge winged gargoyles, plan on reaping that which they sowed on their last passing leaving Mankind fighting for both body and soul. Completely devastating the Earth with global Electromagnetic Pulse Nuclear bombs, Earth is suddenly left defenseless. Thousands of rectangular ships plummet in and around New York City and begin their erratic movement towards one goal; coalescing and forming a great wall around the metropolis and creating a central tower. As New York City is brought to its knees, Jack Savage, a veteran NYPD officer and long time dabbler in the Occult, practicing a little known form a magick called Enochian, is transformed into a being with talents similar to that of Earth's new masters. That is, the ability to separate your soul-body from your physical body at will. Savage, along with his cynical partner Gilmore Boyle and Ol' Willie-be-Good, a homeless crack addicted Vietnam veteran, begin the hopeless quest of defeating the Harvesters of Humanity.
