Sacrificial Lamb Cake is a quick, fun read. Although it is fairly predictable, it is a fun journey with quality writing and characters. Jude (Judas), G, Lucy, the Anti-Christ, and Rain – an orange-haired lesbian tapped as Messiah, work at odds to battle for the End of Days. The Four Horsemen come to play, too. There is betrayal, death, destruction and even some interesting disciples. In all, this is a full story with a satisfying conclusion. Author provided ARC download.

From the Publisher:
Rain Johnson escaped the insanity of her radical environmentalist family, only to end up waitressing for a living. Her scale of success—with her at the bottom—only goes as high as that college degree she never got, until she gets one hell of an epiphany from a Trinity Corporation public-relations guy who calls himself Jude. He tells her she’s the Lamb of God, and it’s time for that whole Second Coming thing. But when her first minor miracle gets her arrested and an ecoterrorist using the name Messiah starts blowing up pesticide plants, Rain and Judas are in for way more apocalypse than either of them expected. Jude scrambles to save his personal plan for salvation, but Lucy, the devil herself, has her own well-laid plans. It doesn’t matter that Rain’s a conflict-avoiding lesbian and Jude is history’s worst traitor. They’re all that stands between humanity and an end of the world that wasn’t supposed to happen.
