Even well-meaning fiction writers of the late Jim Crow era (1900-1955) perpetuated racial stereotypes in their depiction of black characters. From 1918 to 1952, Octavus Roy Cohen turned out a remarkable 360 short stories featuring Florian Slappey and the schemers, romancers and ditzes of Birmingham's Darktown for The Saturday Evening Post and other publications. Cohen said, "I received a great deal of mail from Negroes and I have never found any resentment from a one of them." The black readership had to be satisfied with any black presence in the popular literature of the day. The best known white writers of black characters included Booth Tarkington (Herman and Verman in the Penrod books), Irvin S. Cobb (Judge Priest's houseman Jeff Poindexter), Roark Bradford (Widow Duck, the plantation matriarch), Hugh Wiley (Wildcat Marsden, the war veteran who traveled the country in the company of his goat) and Charles Correll and Freeman Gosden (radio's Amos 'n' Andy). These writers deservedly declined in the civil rights era, but left a curious legacy that deserves examination. This book, focusing on authors of series fiction and particularly of humorous stories, profiles 29 writers and their black characters in detail, with brief entries covering 72 others.

For countless eons the seraph GoEl, the angel of divine justice and holy retributive vengeance, has served Almighty God as His arm of justice. From the slaying of the firstborns in Egypt to the destruction of the 185,000 Assyrians and every type of punishment indicative of the wrath of God, GoEl has been undoubtedly the most feared of the hosts of heaven. Now at the End of Days, GoEl walks the earth in human form, charged with protecting a man named Jonathan, who is destined to one day stand against the forces of darkness as the avatar of Christ. Luciferor the Devil, archenemy of God and mankindalong with his minions of the fallen, has embarked on a quest not only to destroy Jonathan but to eradicate anyone and all knowledge that would expose the lies and machinations that Lucifer has perpetrated for centuries. The Celestial Knights, comprised of the seven princes of heaven, are all that stand between mankind and the forces of evil. Set against a backdrop that involves the second coming of Christ, the Antichrist, the revived Roman Empire, and the New World Order, this book weaves together long-lost prophecies, hidden temples, ancient astronauts, aliens and the rebirth of the Nephilim, and an evil so powerful that even Satan himself fears it. This story reveals the true nature of God, angels, demons, and spiritual warfare and how with faith and complete trust in the Lord one man can embrace his destiny and make a difference.
