Science Fiction
It is the ultimate quest for the ultimate treasure. Chasing
a map tattooed on human skin. Across an omniverse of
intereing realities. To unravel the future of the future. Kit Livingston's great-grandfather appears to him in a
deserted alley during a tumultuous storm. He reveals an
unbelievable story: that the ley lines throughout Britain
are not merely the stuff of legend or the weekend hobby of
deluded cranks, but pathways to other worlds. To those who
know how to use them, they grant the ability to travel the
multi-layered universe of which we ordinarily inhabit only a
tiny part. One explorer knew more than most. Braving every danger, he
toured both time and space on voyages of heroic discovery.
Ever on his guard, and fearful of becoming lost in the
cosmos, he developed an intricate code--a roadmap of
symbols--that he tattooed onto his own body. This Skin Map
has since been lost in time. Now the race is on to recover
all the pieces and discover its secrets. But the Skin Map itself is not the ultimate goal. It is
merely the beginning of a vast and marvelous quest for a
prize beyond imagining. The Bright Empires series--from acclaimed author Stephen
Lawhead--is a unique blending of epic treasure hunt, ancient
history, alternate realities, cutting-edge physics,
philosophy, and mystery. The result is a page-turning,
fantastical adventure like no other.
