DIGITAL DOWNLOAD - Bow to The Skies Issue 1

When a mysterious object crash-lands in the American Southwest, tensions arise within the community regarding the object’s origins, what should be done about it, and what it could mean for our place in the universe.

How will people react when confronted with not only the fact that we aren’t alone in our universe, but that the others may significantly outclass us? Can our culture handle the fear that comes with uncertainty? 

Anne Wrigley, a young woman already frustrated with the incivility and disunity in our society, is barely holding herself together as it is. Will she be able to keep sane as what remains of community and solidarity crumbles around her?

Eli Maples, an optimistic pastor, has always had God to help him through any times of uncertainty. He’s worked hard to help others find the same comfort. But with the threats this object could bring with it, God may not be enough.

Bow to the Skies is a sober, occasionally harrowing look at what happens to a people when confronted with something larger than themselves, and the lengths they will go to improve their own situations.
