The main characters are Mummy and Raven, who have just moved to UsefulNotes/{{Chicago}} from UsefulNotes/{{Canada}} and are getting settled in.
In stark contrast to ''Literature/LeftBehind'', the people trying to get on God's good side believing themselves to be a tribulation force, along with God and the angels, are the [[GodIsEvil villains]], who are called "splitters", while the heroes are the "immoral majority", trying to adapt to life without Christians as angels are going around randomly murdering people. Also has a sequel, ''Sword Of My Mouth''.
