A story of friendship, Armageddon and a dog called Fool... Steve
Harris. An ordinary man with an ordinary job in an ordinary life,
until one day, in the blink of an eye everything in his world
changes. Steve works as a security officer for a pharmaceutical
company. He also takes part in company medical trials to make extra
cash. He is placed in a cryogenic pod as part of an experiment but
when he wakes, a year has passed and he is alone. While asleep, a
deadly virus that had been stored at the same facility has been
unintentionally released by a paramilitary animal rights group.
Which has wiped out 99.9% of the human race. Steve, who is now
joined by the Labrador he finds living in the local pub (who he
christens Fool), decides to try and make his way to the Greek
island of Skiathos. On his travels Steve happens across a rather
flamboyant character encamped in an Austrian ski lodge named Eddie
Kelsall who reluctantly decides to join with Steve and Fool on
their journey. This is the story of Steve, Eddie and Fool's journey
from a small market town to a sunny Greek island and the dangers
and challenges they face as they go from country to country making
new friends and enemies along the way.

Description: Ever since John Wesley departed from Anglican usage by
"consecrating" him as Superintendent of American Methodism, Thomas
Coke has been a center of controversy. Though remembered primarily
as the "Father of Methodist missions," he was a key figure in the
development of Methodism on both sides of the Atlantic in the years
before and after Wesley's death. To write his biography is to write
much of the history of the Church he served. This makes it all the
more surprising that no serious study of Thomas Coke has appeared
in England for over a century, and that the only substantial
twentieth-century biography is that of Bishop Candler published in
America more than forty years ago. In the words of Cyril Davey on
the occasion of the bicentenary of Coke's birth, "No man in
Methodism had a greater significance for his own age, for
Methodism, and for the Missionary movement. No man, deserving to be
remembered, has been more completely forgotten." The present book
is, in fact, the first documented study of the man ever published.
Based to a considerable degree on unpublished primary material, it
aims to present Coke as a human being in relation to, and often in
conflict with, his contemporaries. At the same time it examines
critically the accusations of self-seeking ambition and
inconsistency repeatedly brought against him. And it reviews his
various roles as Wesley's right-hand man, as Asbury's uneasily
yoked colleague, as a pioneer of missions at home as well as
abroad, as preacher and author, and as devoted husband. About the
Contributor(s): John Vickers was Head of the Department of
Religious and Social Studies in the West Sussex Institute of Higher
Education until retiring in 1981. He has written and edited
numerous works, including the online version of the 'Dictionary of
Methodism in Britain and Ireland'.
