Science Fiction
December 21, 2012, may be one of the most
watched dates in history. Every 26,000 years, Earth lines up
with the exact center of our galaxy. At 11:11 on December
21, 2012, this event happens again, and the ancient Maya
calculated that it would mark the end, not only of this age,
but of human consciousness as we know
it. But what will actually happen? The
end of the world? A new age for mankind? Nothing? The last
time this happened, Cro-Magnon man suddenly began creating
great art in the caves of southern France, which to this day
remains one of the most inexplicable changes in human
history. Now Whitley Strieber
explores 2012 in a towering work of fiction that will
astound readers with its truly new insights and a riveting
roller-coaster ride of a story. A mysterious alien presence
unexpectedly bursts out of sacred sites all over the world
and begins to rip human souls from their bodies, plunging
the world into chaos it has never before known.
Courage meets cowardice, loyalty
meets betrayal as an entire world struggles to survive this
incredible end-all war. Heroes emerge, villains reveal
themselves, and in the end something completely new and
unexpected happens that at once lifts the fictional
characters into a new life, and sounds a haunting real-world
warning for the future.
