Description
This novel begins with an allegorical tale depicting the origin of humanlike animals that evolve from purely instinctual and reactive creatures, to ones having sentience and an inherent consciousness of individuality. This evolutionary movement is instigated by highly evolved spiritual entities that are responsible for all creations within the Earthly Realm. Subsequent chapters transport the reader to contemporary times and establish the novel's plot. Because of a mysterious incident Adam and his friends sense that there are unknown powers that influences their lives. They meet new characters that are highly advanced spiritually that serve as teachers to assist them in reaching spiritual awareness and acquiring metaphysical capabilities. The primary antagonist is a wealthy and spiritually powerful woman named Diana, who provides the nucleus that pulls all of the primary characters together in a quest to discover the ruins of Atlantis, somewhere in the Bahamas. She has a dangerous agenda that will serve as the conflict between all characters in the novel, as many of them acquire heightened spiritual powers such as reading the Akashic Record, traveling within the Spiritual Timeline and traveling in Out of the Body experiences. The storyline takes the reader along on a ride that moves at a moderate pace during the first chapters where new characters are being introduced, but begins to speed up when friction between the protagonists and antagonists takes place. Towards the end of this story the novel becomes a thriller as open conflict between Diana and her followers attempt to destroy Adam and his friends. This novel is an inspirational thriller for mature readers as it contains relatively complex philosophical discussions on the origin and evolutionary progress of individual souls. There are instances of great violence and disturbing activities. The storyline also describes many of the primary character's personal activities, including those of a sexual and social nature.
