Thriller
In this mind-bending, stunningly inventive, and brilliantly
researched sequel to In Courts of the Sun, one man holds the
key to saving the world from the coming apocalypse . . . or
ensuring its complete destruction. In Brian D’Amato’s first novel, In the Courts of the Sun, a
team of scientists sent math prodigy and Mayan descendant
Jed DeLanda back in time to the year AD 664 to learn how the
ancient Maya played a powerful divination game to predict
the apocalypse in 2012. But after arriving in the body of a
willing human sacrifice instead of a Mayan king, Jed’s
experiences led him to the fateful decision that rather than
avert the apocalypse, he must ensure instead that the world
ends.
Using his knowledge of the divination game, Jed sets in
motion a series of events that will bring about the
destruction of humanity, ending the world’s pain and
suffering once and for all. But before the plan can be
completed, the organization that sent him into the past
discovers his intention and devotes every resource to stop him.
Taking readers back to the dizzying action of ancient
times,The Sacrifice Game is a breathtaking odyssey in which
Jed must survive bloody wars, ruthless leaders, shifting
alliances, and unspeakable betrayal to learn about the Game,
before his time in both the ancient Mayan empire and the
present day runs out.
