Following the sudden death of her aunt, Celeste Adamson, Katy returns to Eden, and finds the town in an uproar. Two well-loved, high school teens have disappeared, leaving only a running car and a bloody shoe. Strange lights have appeared over a local farm, leaving behind blackened circles. Eden County Hospital is reporting record births, incredibly large babies, destined to join the ranks of a growing number of giants. Many of the town''s prosperous citizens have been shielding evil secrets, but their illicit bahaviour has been discovered by the mysterious Dr. Apollo Bell, who heads up Mt. Hermon Institute. All of Eden has become a war camp, and citizens are being forced to take sides in an eternal battle. Had Katherine''s aunt played a part in this battle? Was Celeste Adamson a sacrifice to the bloodlust of these demonic beings? And what does the enigmatic John Thundercloud know? Why does the old Winnebago Indian write line after line in what has become an entire library of diaries? What obsession drives him? And how is local pastor, Enoch Jones, involved? Joshua Carpenter might have some of the answers, although he doesn''t yet realize it. As publishing editor of Eden''s faltering newspaper, The Eden Chronicle, Josh joins forces with Katy, and a romance that they''d begun years before at Eden College, rekindles as the couple seeks out the truth in a labyrinth of mysteries and danger. Katherine Adamson thinks she has returned to Indiana to settle her aunt''s estate, but she will soon learn she has been purposefully drawn into a battle of the ages. While she hopes to find an idyllic world where she can rediscover herself, what she discovers instead is a nest of spiritual vipers whose dual purpose is to corrupt the humans of the picturesque river town and force God into a showdown with their genetically perfect Man of Sin.MythArc, the conspiracy begins here...The works of Sharon and Derek Gilbert are organized into an overall MythArc - a chronology that spans millennia. The ultimate conspiracy theory that has been played out for thousands of years - to destroy humanity.Warning - Once you''ve connected the dots, your concept of our world will change forever. Are you sure you want to continue? Or would you rather remain asleep?The real war began long ago - long before mankind began to fashion killing machines, long before human generals plotted campaigns over the bodies of bloodied men, long before the lust for power became the greatest of all human sins. Before the births of Socrates, Solomon or Shakespeare, Evil struck the first blow in the war for control of men''s souls.Throughout millennia since, the Shadow has altered his form again and again to fool mankind into trusting his insidious lies. A snake, a dragon, a mythological god, a politician, a poet, sometimes even a priest - all guises of the same consummate conniver with but one plan: defeat God at every turn. But God strikes back, sometimes with his eternal hand, sometimes through his mighty angels, and sometimes through the creation made slightly lesser than the angels, man himself.It is lost tales of lesser warriors that we hope to present. Tales such as that of a beggar named Simeon, befriended by an antediluvian preacher named Enoch who walked and was no more. Or that of Denko, a 6th century shipwrecked sailor who stumbles across a tribe of giants in the days just before a megalithic asteroid crashes into Earth and plunges mankind into an age of darkness. Or the story of Elizabeth Branham, a wealthy English heiress who discovers a 19th century plot to unseat God and crown Satan as Prince of the World. Then there''s the story of a gentle doctor who must convince a small Kentucky town that the 1918 flu epidemic that is taking their loved ones is not the secret rapture, even though a man who claims to be a preacher proclaims it to be the season of sheep and goats. Another such untold battle that connects this overarching plan is that of John Thundercloud, a 1950''s Winnebago Indian, who can see into the realm of the Shadow, and who must prevent the Enemy''s followers from opening the Seven Gates of Hell that will unleash those kept in chains, even if it means the loss of his own life.Still sleeping? Then follow the stories of Katherine Adamson, Joe Unes, Matt McGlone and Maggie Taylor, all from our own present time, and each one on the front line that separates night from day, slavery from freedom, and shadow from Light. When you have read all these tales and more that will follow in the months to come, then perhaps you will begin to waken to the truth of our time. And perhaps, you will become a lesser warrior, whose tale will one day join these others in the great MythArc of Mankind.
