The Waiting Room: A Novel

When airline pilot Bob Frisbee flatlines in a hospital bed, he doesn't find a tunnel of light or a choir of angels. He finds a room. A waiting room. And a guide named Mr O, who holds a file on every wound Bob ever caused, every bitterness he buried, and every person he refused to forgive. The wheel of Bob's life glows bright for the people he loved and goes dark for everyone else.

From the schoolyard bully to the father broken by war, each dark spoke must be lit before Bob can move on. But forgiveness isn't just a lesson here. It's a near-death experience that comes at a cost. And when Bob takes the Escape Tunnel, he discovers that life after death has its own version of outer darkness.

Researcher of the Nephilim, angels, and demons, L.A. Marzulli brings prophetic vision to this Christian afterlife fiction that does not romanticise the other side. Between heaven and earth, Bob encounters the cosmic war Scripture calls real, fallen angels, the second coming in motion.

In The Waiting Room, you will:

• Experience a heaven book unlike any other, where forgiveness is not optional, and heaven is real enough to cost you everything
• Follow one man's proof of heaven and to heaven and back, and the terrifying proof of what unforgiveness does to a soul
• Encounter the spiritual warfare dimension of forgiveness, how unresolved bitterness becomes a foothold for darkness
• Discover what Scripture says about imagining heaven, the Millennial Kingdom, the White Horse armies, and the return of Christ
• Be moved to act on the broken relationships and people you've written off in your own life

Gripping, theologically rich, and deeply human, The Waiting Room is the rare novel that will make you close it slowly and then pick up the phone to call someone you haven't spoken to in years.
