An action packed, fast-paced, mystery thriller, unlike anything you've ever read before!

All references to historical locations, religions, ancient writings, and the representation of current beliefs of local peoples from around the world described in this novel are true.

John Mitchell's life in the small Midwestern town of Mill City is changing forever. The animals in his lab are dying, he learns gut wrenching news about his wife, and the most important meeting of his career gets canceled when Dr. Frank Johnson mysteriously disappears.

After receiving a cryptic package from the missing doctor and accidentally injecting himself with its contents, a serum made from the instructions scribed onto a seven-thousand-year-old artifact, John discovers he has new powerful abilities, and new blood-chilling enemies. He and his wife Jenny are soon running for their lives, hunted by the terrifying figures that will stop at nothing to protect the serum's seven-thousand-year-old secret, and retrieve the artifact needed to finish their plans.

On the run and searching for answers, they are thrown into a world of ancient secrets, esoteric mysteries and a clandestine underground race, when they become trapped in a cavern that holds the shocking secret history of the Human Race, deep underneath the ancient ruins of Babylon.

As millions of people around the world suddenly begin disappearing, John and Jenny learn the horrific news of the inevitable extinction of the human race. But when John discovers the hideously evil, secret motivation of the ancient race that is supposed to be saving them, he must rely on his new-found abilities to rescue the woman he loves, Earth, and the billions of tortured souls locked deep within it.

Join the thousands of fans that have taken S.E. Meyer's thrilling, fact filled, roller-coaster ride, deep into the thought provoking, controversial, yet compelling world of what we think we know to be true.

Both books in the two part series are now available on Amazon!

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

As a boy, S.E. Meyer grew up in the wilderness of northern Ontario Canada and spent his time learning how to hunt, fish, and survive in the north. He moved to the lovely state of Wisconsin at 18, where he has now spent his entire adult life.

Self employed, author, researcher, and now living in the northwestern part of Wisconsin with his wife and two sons, Meyer still loves the outdoors and tries to spend as much time there as possible.

Gardening, campfires, traveling and fishing are some of his favorite things and Mr. Meyer also loves to entertain; either by playing the guitar, or through captivating stories on the page. Additional hobbies include reading non-fiction and fiction as well as spending hundreds of hours thoroughly researching the topics in his books.

Paradoxical.....ZERO STARS for Grammar! Story pretty good.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 6, 2015

Verified Purchase

OMG - if you are a fan of poor grammar - this is the book for you! Ending sentences with prepositions. Wrong tenses. Complete abuse of pronouns. Bad punctuation. Poorly constructed sentences. Use of the wrong homonym ( i.e. "...they PAST the front desk"). And on it went.... If the story had been less creative and engaging, I would have bailed. Honestly, it seemed like there were two brains authoring the book. One with an intelligent creative mind that took ancient writings, alien theories, classic sci-fi concepts & sound science and wove them into an entertaining story that was downright scholarly at times. And one that never had the advantage of a single 3rd grade English class. Perplexing at best! That being said - I think I might get the next book in the series. (ya – I am puzzled, too.) But Hey... S. E. Meyer - whoever you are....Pay for an editor! And if you did…..demand a refund! Your writings would be so much better. Every time I came across one of those jarring errors it was like being hit with a bucket of ice water.

Take some writing courses.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 25, 2015

Verified Purchase

I only do reviews when a book is so bad I hope that what I say might help the author learn something about the craft. I can't write about the entire book as I only managed to slog through the first 30 pages, or less. The author probably has a good plot but the writing is so poor even an outstanding plot could not redeem the book.
One of the main characters, John, is a research scienitist who thinks and acts like a ten year old. How someone can be smart enough to be in obviouly complex research and think, say and do the things he does, is beyond belief. The dialogue between all of the characters is awkward and dull. The author must not have taken any writing courses or not paid attention. One does not write dialogue like people in the real world talk. It comes out boring and awkward. The everyday exchanges that people use rant written. "Hello. How are you? I'm fine. Hoe are you?" Etc.etc. are skipped in good writing.
His description of characters and surroundings is also poorly executed. "Olive green eyes". So the person's eyes looks like army fatigues? Really? Maybe the eyes are supposed to be unnatural? I have to admit, I've never seen olive green eyes.
I do not wish to spend any more time discussing everything wrong with this book. I think the author would do well to go back to school and get some good writing courses under his belt. Sorry, S. E. Meyer, I don't want to discourage you about wring, but would truly like to encourage you to learn the craft. Writing a book is a lot of work. I applaud your desire to do so and your ability to stick with it. But it would be so much better if you learned how to do it.

A bit too far-fetched

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 26, 2015

Verified Purchase

A pseudo science-fiction tale based on the fantasies of von Daniken, Noah's flood, alleged Sumerian myth, Eden and Satan's revolt, finally revealing that all of Christianity is an alien plot: truth that was deliberately cast in obscure terms to fool us.

It requires a few mind-boggling assumptions: US scientists and military can run a massive secret operation in Baghdad, experts can sight-read Sumerian and hieroglyphics and a mix of the two with ease, amateur astronomers and could not tell an approaching solar system from a distant star, there is a complete network of tunnels around the planet that no instrument has ever detected and humans can defeat super-beings because, in the last few minutes of something they have been planning for 7200 years, they take their eye off the ball

Still some good action and silly motivations make it not a bad read

I really hate starting to read a book series because I can't afford to buy books. I made an exception for this book, because the author stated "All references to historical locations, religions, ancient writings and the representation of current beliefs of local peoples from around the world described in this novel are true." Truth based fiction is a turn on, especially when the truth is in archeological findings.

I don't much like that the book left me hanging at the end, or that there were a lot of editing errors. However, I did enjoy the story as far as it went, and even more enjoyed Mr Meyer's ability to make me think about different possibilities.

Great book and a really interesting Armageddon stoe

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 20, 2015

Verified Purchase

Wow, I actually knew most of the true parts of this book about ancient history but I love how it was all tied up and lined up like it was and wow what a interesting way to have Armageddon come about and where and what Hell is. Even the tortured souls! This book was not only interesting and fascinating it also moved at a fast pace. If you like end of the world books without the religion but with interesting alternative theories ( well alternative to western religion anyways) then I think you will love this book. I read the left behind series and to tell you the truth, I think this story is a lot more realistic and would be more likely to happen than what happened in that series. Great book will be reading book two. Oh and very well and professionally written too!.

Thought provoking! Imaginative and face paced!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 8, 2014

Verified Purchase

I have read a large amount of books in my life. I have read many I've had to soldier through to a uneventful end where I'm disappointed and wishing my time was better spent. This book is NOT one of those. From the beginning I was hooked on the easy flow of the plot. It was well thought out and inventive. The use of historical fact was intriguing. I found myself pausing and thinking " wow is this really fact" and " how did I not know this?". S.E. Meyers's use of the book of Revelations was quite interesting. I read the reviews and yes there was grammatical errors, but in no way did it detract from the well thought out story line. All in all I would say if you looking for a good book you cannot put down this is it. Excellent job S.E. Meyer! Impatiently waiting for the next installment.

The climax at the end of the book leaves you wanting more and wanting to dive right into the sequel.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 27, 2016

I can honestly say I have never read a book like this one before. It makes you question your belief in God and aliens and what's waiting for us out there in other galaxys.
The twists and turns in the book make you wonder who really are the good guys and the bad guys. The climax at the end of the book leaves you wanting more and wanting to dive right into the sequel.
Although this book is a work of fiction, it feels very real.
Highly recommended.

interesting story but some glaring mistakes

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 9, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is an imaginative story but the author knows nothing whatever about England. We have Police STATIONS, not precincts - and they have geographical names, not numbers. There is no such rank as a police "captain" and British police absolutely DO NOT wear guns. The story itself is entertaining and the characters are well-drawn, but it's hard to believe in the author's efforts at researching ancient history, if he can't even be bothered to find out that the UK has a totally different culture to America. Do your homework, Mr. Meyer!

Dan Brown imitation

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 17, 2014

Verified Purchase

I very rarely give up on a book, but am forcing myself to read this. The storyline has possibilities with a better writer, but this is so amateurish it is painful to read. If I had a pound for every time I've rolled my eyes at the conflicting descriptions, poorly drawn characters and childish writing style, I'd be very very rich! If you like Dan Brown, avoid this book, it's a very poor imitation.

Gave up!!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on February 13, 2014

Verified Purchase

I'm afraid that I gave up reading this book, not a page went by without someone's jaw dropping to the floor, after a few pages I began to despair. The number of times the main protagonist suffered from heart racing & pounding, stomach clenching, throat tightening problems I was concerned that the story line was struggling to get anywhere....did not enjoy, sorry.
