The First Horn
An End Times Thriller of Prophecy and War
THE APOCALYPSE IS NOT A PROPHECY. IT IS A CONTRACT.
The boy who sold water at the gates of Babylon grew up to become the Ghost of Babylon, the assassin no government admits to hiring. Then a contract arrives that he cannot read as business. The target is Elias Venn, an ageing scholar whose only crime is a theory: that Revelation was never a script for what must happen, only a warning about what people would choose. Someone powerful wants the warning silenced. Four assassins took the contract before Samir. Three are dead. One disappeared. Samir does not believe in prophecy. He believes in patterns, exits and payment. But as he follows the money behind the contract, the first horn sounds, and the world begins moving to a schedule written thousands of years ago. Some contracts are not meant to be completed. Some warnings are not meant to survive.

M. A. Khan writes at the meeting point of ancient warning and modern consequence. A British author with a previous career at the sharp end of military and trauma medicine, he brings a surgeon's economy and a soldier's eye to stories that range from apocalyptic geopolitical thrillers to mythic dark fantasy. His books ask one recurring question: when the old stories said we were warned, what exactly were we supposed to do about it? He writes as M. A. Khan; his nonfiction appears under Mansoor Ali Khan.
