"Science. Religion. Antiquity. Tomorrow. Worlds separated by millennia and mystery are on a collision course. Hurtling through time and space, their paths inevitably crossed, they will come crashing together, like storm fronts of fire and ice, to create an immaculate tempest of brilliant lightning and ground shaking thunder.

Where death, rebirth, and discovered answers that beg still more profound questions, prove all too prophetic. Ecco homo! Behold the man!"--Back cover
