The God In The Clear Rock
In 50 hours, the world as we know it will end...

Like a celestial alarm clock, the sun is about to enter a cycle of giant storms that will decimate life on Earth and destroy our modern civilization. It's happened before, but it was long before humans even had writing.

Now it will occur again in 50 hours.

Amid this imminent catastrophe is the God in the Clear Rock, a mysterious presence influential throughout the history of ancient man on the American continents.

And she has a secret.

Following stories from history, fast-paced scenes jump across centuries and millennia of time as the mystery of the God in the Clear Rock deepens. Coming together over years, unforgettable characters and epic events throughout the history of man unknowingly countdown in a race against the sun.

THE GOD IN THE CLEAR ROCK has everything you could want in an epic sci-fi story; ancient civilizations, giant humans, advanced technology, military secrets, artificial intelligence, and a timeline that covers 78 millennia. Engaging, imaginative, and believable writing will drag you into the intrigue and drama as it begins to unfold across the planet.

First in a six-book series covering the 50 hour countdown, THE GOD IN THE CLEAR ROCK presents the initial eight-and-a-half hours. But 78,000 years of brutal history and adventure lead up to this first exciting book. The story blends the hour-by-hour style of the TV drama 24 and the intelligent storytelling of Asimov with the twisted plots of George R.R. Martin; the result is a page turner you can't put down.

It's filled with science, technology, history and adventure, plus a sci-fi twist on a cliff-hanger ending that will have fans jumping into the second book in the series, THE HOLE IN THE MAGIC SHIELD (available now).

Each of the six books is an installment in the 50-hour story.
Newly revised second edition.

About the Author

Lucian is hard to describe. We're pretty sure he escaped from some government lab when he was young. These days he's a practicing roboticist, biophysicist and biomechanical engineer. He's also a research fellow and senior strategic analyst for a private science think tank. His primary specialty is high-technology and bleeding-edge science, which really just means he likes cool toys. He has also been called a polymath and a futurist, but he says that just means he's hopeful.

In addition to several companies founded on his technology, Lucian has also been independently contracted to invent and develop some of the most advanced robotic equipment on the planet. He has a thing for robots - preferably the female kind (because all complex machines are females - and vice versa). He says he's only met a few male robots, and they were all heavily armed and quite mean looking. He has consulted for projects under the direction of numerous government and private groups around the world. In addition to robotics, he has a portfolio of advanced technology he was directly responsible for developing or inventing. His designs and inventions cover a broad range of industries including biomedical, construction, telecommunications, military, and aerospace. Virtually all of his technology is Restricted or Classified (mostly as a result of who actually has enough money to build the things he thinks up).

Outside his Entrepreneur and Science work, Lucian is a prolific writer. Professionally, he produces more than one million written words per year. He's also been producing multimedia for public internet distribution since the beginning of the broadband era. He's a recognized pioneer in the podcasting field and was the host of the Planet TV Show, which was one of the original non-commercial science and technology TV shows on the web and one of the first video podcasts in the world. The show was seen in 124 countries worldwide, and at the peak of its popularity, the videos were being downloaded millions of times each month. Lucian has authored numerous technical tomes that are not available to the public, in addition to this series of science fiction novels, The Ancients of Earth. He says he has to write fiction because he needs to get all the crazy things he's seen and been through in his professional life out of his head; otherwise he'd go insane.

But he admits, that might only be a matter of semantics.
