Coming off his *2022 Sci-Fi Novel of the Year award, C. Elmon Meade's second book explores the intersection of catastrophism and ancient prophecy.
In Adam & Eve's Ashes, Meade uses his storytelling to introduce a new generation to the 1965 novel "The Adam and Eve Story" by Chan Thomas. Recent revelations in the science of catastrophism are explained in vivid and terrifying detail concerning the earth's pending magnetic pole shift, an overdue solar micro nova, and the cataclysm that awaits humanity. Meade navigates the reader through the science behind solar flares, coronal mass ejections, and the solar micro nova. He also explains how the earth's weakening magnetic field will magnify the space weather disaster which awaits humanity's vulnerable global power grid.
Meade also pulls in ancient Hebrew texts, including The Book of Enoch, the Old Testament, and the New Testament. Being of Native American heritage, Meade also introduces many in his audience to the Hopi Indian prophecies shared throughout the generations. The Prophecy Rock and associated oral traditions and Native worldview are showcased to explain both the cosmic and cultural signs we are witnessing today. The warning signs of a pending catastrophe are everywhere, and Meade brings his readers along for the ride!

Im.disappointed by how.short this was. I feel vaguely ripped off by the purchase but its my own fault. I didn't look at the page count information, I just thought it sounded like a good distraction.
This "book" is only 42 pages and not the 48 pages indicated. That is the best thing about it.
It is the absolute worst book I have ever read. I would rate it a zero if I had that option. It cost me $9 from Amazon. Save your money. You have probably read similar writings from the missives that occasionally appear stuck under the windshield wipers of your car. This book is even more disorganized than they are.
I bought it because it mentioned Chan Thomas in the blurb from Goodreads and even on the back cover. I actually have a copy of his book somewhere in my house. Chan spoke to a high school class I took in 1960 when I was a senior. He was so popular we invited him back when we had a reunion with the teacher a few years later. The only reference to him in the book is to use his name and not any of his ideas. Instead of a tumbling earth caused by polar ice imbalance and a liquid earth core. We get the main cause coming from solar pulses (kind of mini novas). These same pulses are said to cause the feminization of men in our society and other societal ills such as road rage, crime, on demand abortions, disinformation and many others.
The book is filled with many long biblical quotes from both the Old and New Testaments (including from the Book of Enoch) I had to research Enoch in Wikipedia. The quotes do not make it valid, even for religious people.
There is a long section on Hopi Indian origin legends. Most native peoples worldwide have them.
Eventually the sun activity will cause blackouts of our devices and other technology, and floods and earthquakes will occur to wipe out most people. But the storage of seeds in Sweden, will somehow survive for the few remaining people people to find.
I received this book as a Goodreads Giveaway, and thought it might be different from my normal historical fiction. It certainly is different, but I found the 42 pages to be difficult to read and will donate it to my local library to see if anyone is interested. Perhaps the section on “Cosmic Warnings “ was the best, but only amounted to 6 pages that could surely have been expanded and explained in more detail. Perhaps the author needs to cooperate with an experienced editor?
I just finished reading this little gem! This book is incredibly relevant and an excellent introduction to catastrophism. The read was equal parts, palatable & savory. Highly recommend. Thank you Elmon for your contribution of bringing light to such an important topic. You did so in an intelligent, crisp and airy manner. Well done! God Bless you Elmon.
