The Patriarch Saga – Book Two

Thousands of years ago the human race became inflicted with something that could threaten the future of all life in the universe. And now as humanity faces its own looming extinction, a mysterious otherworldly entity known as a Patriarch arrives to intervene and deliver them a savior: Charles Andersen.

Bestowed with extraordinary god-like abilities and the paramount task of ridding the world of the inflicted, Charles and his television news journalist fiancée Melissa Edwards must work together in a desperate bid to liberate humankind while the world around them goes completely insane. Then when an unrelated spate of macabre ritualistic killings escalates into a shocking genocide, self-righteous fingers the world over point to the unassuming savior, the only person on Earth even capable of committing such unspeakable atrocities. And amidst the outrage and political condemnation that ensues, the world rapidly descends into all out war.

But little does anyone know that the greatest imminent threat to civilization has been lurking deep within the shadows for centuries. And as the saviors and their inner circle close in on the real culprits believed responsible for inciting Armageddon, none of them will be prepared for what they’ll discover hidden away in the most unlikely of places, or the astounding two thousand year old secret that’s buried deep within.

The greatest human adventure of all time continues.

A Word from the Author

Book two of The Patriarch Saga takes things to a whole new level of intrigue, action and blockbuster-style adventure.

With a slightly different ‘Crime Thriller’ vibe compared to the more bombastic first book in the series, We of the Patriarch focuses strongly on plot and steadily builds the suspense and tension to an apocalyptic crescendo before the ‘real’ action begins, and the sci-fi fantasy spectacle kicks in with an almighty vengeance.

There’s a shocking series of macabre murders, an even more shocking act of incomprehensible genocide, followed by all-out global warfare. But all this is merely the precursor to the discovery of something beyond anyone’s imagination. And then the world’s greatest secret shall finally be revealed.

If you thought you knew the history of human civilization, then think again. Everything you’ve ever known is a lie. And book two will completely blow your mind.
