I was long needing a book that was so good I couldn't put it down and I found it in The Last Christian by David Gregory. With this futuristic and sci-fi thriller - year 2088 -Gregory gives us a future that we may not like - but have to admit is possibile.
Abagail Caldwell, the main character, is the daughter of missionaries to an isolated (by government decree) tribe in New Guinea, where a strange disease has killed everyone but her. As a result she is thrust from the jungle into a very different America where advanced technology has changed the world! Here, people no longer care about nurturing their souls but only want to stimulate their bodies and virtual reality is where they live by choice. And now, physical death may soon be eliminated altogether but at what cost. Abagail finds herself in the heart of this biggest change of all, her life threatened, and other deaths unexplained. She also finds that Christianity has died, and she, Abagail Caldwell, is that last Christian.
This book, with it's incredible message, is a highly thought-provoking novel. I recommend it without hesitation!
