Pornageddon
by Matt Micheli
:::WINNER OF THE 2024 LITERARY NASTIES AWARD FOR LONG FICTION:::
The end of the world is coming. And it’s going to get filthy.
Abella Jane is the hottest new star in the adult entertainment industry. Her popularity is exploding, her downloads are breaking records, and millions can’t get enough of her. But behind the screens and insatiable obsession, something sinister is taking hold. As her fame spreads, the world begins to unravel.
Marriages crumble. Wildfires rage. Crops wither. And across the streets of America, innocent people are being slaughtered in increasingly horrific acts of violence.
For Roy, a devoted family man struggling with his own addiction to Abella, the nightmare becomes devastatingly personal. After a life-changing tragedy, he begins experiencing disturbing visions that reveal a terrifying possibility: the Devil is exploiting humanity’s darkest desires to assemble a demonic, sex-crazed army and bring about the end of days.
Now Roy must gather a band of unlikely allies and confront an evil unlike anything they’ve ever imagined. The battle lines between good and evil are blurring, redemption comes at a terrible price, and humanity’s last hope may lie in the most depraved places imaginable.
Welcome to PORNAGEDDON.

“Holy Hell - this book is wrong! It's rare to find splatterpunk with something to say these days, but this one says a lot. When I heard this was a showdown between Good and Evil set within the porn world, I knew I just had to read it. Micheli seems to have made it his mission (divinely inspired or not) to write a splatterporn version of The Stand, and I'd say he did a hell of a job. The scope is much smaller, (even the Bible is smaller than The Stand), but the roster of depraved villains and heroes in all shades of gray definitely hit all the right spots. Read this book, and spread the gospel of Pornageddon far and wide!”

“Animalistic sex, porn addiction and visceral gore mingle perfectly in this tale of baby batter-coated insanity. Micheli’s characters and blood-splattered set pieces are every bit as fully realized as the money shots, making Pornogeddon a book with as much heart as bodily fluids. I can’t recommend it enough.” —Jon Steffens, author of The God in the Hills series

"I'm not sure if this book wants me to pray to God or porn—maybe both? Nothing I’ve ever read has delivered two so polar opposite themes within the same text, yet Micheli does it masterfully. So grab a bible and some lube and… Jesus, we’re going to Hell!” —Patrick C. Harrison III, author of 100% Match and Grandpappy
