Planet Love: The End of the World as We knew It
“Simply put, Planet Love (The End ofthe World as We Knew It), is a deeply moving book about a retired UPS driverwho still plays rock ‘n roll and who has a life-changing encounter withextraterrestrial forces. But it’s much much more than that. Planet Love is theautobiography of the author, John Rullo, woven into a novel with the tautthread of self-inquiry which has him questioning religion, his familialrelationships—particularly his life-long marriage—his life choices and thefuture of mankind.
Born and raised inQueens, New York, Rullo moves to Long Island as a young father. He trades hisambition to be a rock star for the stable middle-class life of a driver forUPS. He continues to play music as time affords, raises his kids and retireswhile he’s still young enough to enjoy it. And then, one night, headed out tothe parking lot of a bar where his band has a regular gig, he runs intosomething—the extraterrestrials—and is briefly shown glimpses of the world atcrucial moments: from the beauty of creation to the horrors of war.
The visitation changeshis life. Who we are, who John Rullo is, and what the future of mankind mightbecome, are vital questions for which he has no answers. Why was he picked bythe aliens to be shown those things? Did it even really happen? And to whom canhe talk about it all without appearing to have gone crazy?
I’m not going to be aspoiler and say more than that. I am going to tell you that this is a wonderfulstory; one you will not be able to put down once you begin reading.”
