Revelations Story
The story revolves around 14-year-old Jeremy, a shy boy who writes poetry
and songs for his bullyish brother Shane and his band, but receives no
credit or money for his efforts. The band is hired to perform at a local
cafe for a substantial amount of money (unbeknownst to Jeremy) and it is
there that the boy befriends the cafe owner, Jack Lucas, who also claims
to be quite a poet. Jeremy feels comfortable at the cafe and Jack soon
becomes a father figure, since the boy lost his father to a suspicious
automobile accident when he was little. Soon the band moves on to bigger,
better deals thanks to Jack's "connections," and Jeremy continues to hang
out at the cafe, especially attending the weekly poetry readings. Jack
invites the boy to attend a secret poetry group of his that meets at night
in the woods around a campfire, and it is there that he informs Jeremy
that "words have power...and must be used with caution." Later, when
Shane is found mysteriously murdered, Jeremy blames himself because of a
poem he wrote about his brother wishing him dead.
Jeremy is slowly driven
to madness with frightening recurring nightmares of power and death, and
he also discovers secrets connecting Jack to his past...and the death of
his father. At the end he confronts Jack and discovers that they both,
together, play a very major role in the end of the world, and Jeremy is
forced to make the most important choice of his life...for himself and the
entire planet.
