Pastor Stephen Grant: Deep Rough in a Galaxy Far, Far Away?

Pastor Stephen Grant?

Stephen Grant is the pastor at St. Mary’s Lutheran Church on eastern Long Island. Grant is one of the more unique second-career clergy around, as he once worked for the CIA. Besides theology, his interests include archery, golf, writing, classic films, the beach, poker, baseball, and history. Grant also knows his wines, champagnes and brews. Oh yes, he generally dislikes politicians, and happens to be an expert marksman with a handgun and a rifle, while being pretty handy with a combat knife as well.

Deep Rough in a Galaxy Far, Far Away?

I went on vacation last week to a galaxy far, far away. And while visiting the planet of Batuu, I stopped at the Black Spire Outpost and discovered a couple of interesting things.

First, the Millennium Falcon – that’s right, the fastest hunk of junk in the galaxy – was sitting in Hangar Bay 7. I managed to get on board, and wound up being taken on a voyage with a bunch of smugglers. It was unexpected, but a great adventure.

Second, after returning, I strolled around the outpost, and was pleased and surprised to see that my latest thriller, Deep Rough: A Pastor Stephen Grant Novel, apparently was on the reading list of at least a few folks.

I think most of those reading the book were with the Resistance, rather than The First Order.
