Now in Bookstores: RESURRECTION
If you read Domain, (and even if you didn't) then
Resurrection is a must-read. Resurrection is Matrix
meets the Mayan Prophecies, which predict humanity will
be facing a doomsday cataclysm in our near future.
Resurrection's storyline delves into two of the greatest
mysteries that haunt mankind's existence:
What happens to us after we die?
And what is the future evolution of the human species?
In the future, the two subjects are entwined.
Science and technology will push Homo Sapiens to evolve
into what has been termed: TRANSHUMANS. While we become
more wired into machines, the afterlife will become a
science in itself, and death the ultimate frontier. The
novel takes place where Domain left off, just after the
apocalypse of 2012, prophecied in the Mayan Calendar.
The Hero Twins, written about in the Mayan Popol Vuh 500
years ago, are finally born, but so is another child of
destiny, one that will fall to the darker side of
existence. Meanwhile, our reluctant hero, Michael
Gabriel, has been exiled into an existence of purgatory
by an evil life force.
Resurrection is the darker chapter in the Domain
trilogy, not for the squeamish. Because of its strong
themes, it is NOT part of the Adopt-An-Author
program...but it will keep you up at night, turning
pages.
Kirkus Reviews calls Resurrection:
"A galloping, hugely detailed
scientific/paranormal/spiritual SF superdrama that
deserves a wide audience of warped but delighted
readers."
