It's Puerto Rico in the Year of Our Lord 2099, and it's good, good, good to be alive! Young Juan Bautista Lorca has his headphones tuned to W-G-O-D, listening to the Gospel Maniacs. His cup runneth over because he is driving a FreezVan for the Suicide Prevention Corps of America; his partner, Fabiola Munoz, rides shotgun. The SPCA soulsavers ice the bodies of the self-inflicteds and rush them, siren yowling, to the Saint Francis of Assisi Resurrection Center.
Why, Juan Bautista wonders, is the suicide rate climbing? Maybe it's all the pollution and the slums. And why has Fabiola become so sour? Maybe she's one of those who believes in the Twin Messiahs. (That new heresy is the reason the beautiful Shepherdess had to suspend the Bill of Rights.)
As the Christian American nation and its squads of Avenging Angels hunt for Emma and Noel (the Antichrist children), Juan Bautista begins seeing below the surface of things.

Industry Reviews

"A frightening, funny future full of religion, politics, TV, and even the occasional miracle . . . It's an intelligent, inventive, fascinating book. Read it!-Connie Willis, author of To Say Nothing of the Dog "With its passionate skepticism and compassionate spirit, Soulsaver deserves to find a large audience among mainstream and science fiction readers alike." -James Morrow, author of The Eternal Footman "Fast-paced, thought-provoking, and utterly engaging-a bravura debut by a writer who is sure to become a major name." -Robert J. Sawyer, Nebula Award-winning author of Calculating God
