Religious Christmas

On Christmas Eve, 2017, the life of Russian-American artist Nikita Nataniel Kuznetsov changes beyond recognition. He’s plagued with a deadly bacterial infection that sends him off to the afterlife.

A child was born two thousand years ago in a little village called Bethlehem. His birth fulfilled over 300 Old Testament scripture verses prophesying this event.

It doesn't matter; he did not exist. He is just a made up character.

A collection of inspirational poems and the Christmas novella "Mouse Tails" as an added bonus.
