Carrying on with the help of humor, he eventually found success by refusing to believe that the world is anything less than magical.Escape awaits you in Waiting for the Rapture, a collection of Ransom's real-life witticisms.

His candid stories are a necessity for all who still believe that stubborn imagination-and magic-can make the difference between survival and destruction.Internationally noted author of Mary and the Ossuary, Ransom delves deep into a masterpiece of vignettes that reveal heartbreak and the triumph of the human spirit through laughter.
