Frantz Charles is extremely proud and excited to share his latest work The GCP The First Resurrection. The project might have been a lengthy one, but this was one story that really needed to be told.
Parallel universes are at play in a not-so-distant-future in THE GCP: THE FIRST RESURRECTION. Planet Earth is being attacked by a set of gods, led by the mighty goddess Vera. A pitched battle for the future of the Universe commences and three teenagers are instrumental in defending humanity from demigods hell-bent on destroying them. Angela Lopez, a 17-year-old, fights depression along with alien forces and discovers her superpowers. Cade Walker, a 16-year-old has conflicting alliances as he commits to protecting Alice, his pregnant lover. Cade’s half-brother Colvin Walker, 18-years-old, is a cold-blooded captain who is a leader in the war for Heaven.
Sparks fly as the clash between competing universes begins. The stakes for world survival are high in this richly layered story set in an imaginary world of adventure, mystery, and excitement.
