Description:

Grim Reaper is a modern-day Dante’s Inferno, one of the greatest and most revered works of world literature, which describes Dante’s journey through Hell, depicted as nine circles of suffering. Allegorically, the Divine Comedy represents the journey of the soul towards God, with Inferno describing the recognition and rejection of sin. Amazingly, there are some bizarre parallels to our present-day “evils of society” and the time period in which Dante composed Inferno. Seven centuries ago, Europe was suffering through war, famine, the corruption of the Church, and the evils of the pogrom – murderous acts that brutally massacred tens of thousands of Jews. Shortly after Dante’s passing, the Black Plague would strike Europe and Asia – a near “End of Days” event that killed off half the world’s population while giving birth to a new legend depicted in paintings and dance: The Grim Reaper. The hero in GRIM REAPER: End of Days is Patrick Shepherd, an Iraqi war vet and tainted soul who returns home to find his wife and child gone and his country mired in economic collapse, two endless wars – and a very real covert biological program which could lead to global pandemic and our own self-destruction. **
