Imagine that everything you knew or thought you knew about humanity's place in the universe is turned upside down by just a few days spent on the surface of Mars. Jonathan Kraine is a well-known explorer and archaeologist who finds that reality is just as fantastic as myth, and that truth is sometimes stranger than fiction, when he stumbles upon an ancient ruin buried beneath the surface and discovers the answers to some of the greatest mysteries of all time.
A prequel to "Destiny's Forge", the second in the series is about truth and justice, and the choices humanity must make if it is to survive as a species, placed against the backdrop of questions about the future of space exploration and human history. It continues in the same vein and with the same flavor as the first, but here there is high adventure and romance mixed with philosophical discussion and speculation about theosophy and skeptical enquiry, told through Jonathan's eyes and his experiences with an alien vampire named Andru.
