Crucible of the Ancients

By Jim Lewis

For centuries, the Order of the Crimson Dawn has searched for The Crucible, an ancient tome said to contain the secrets of creation itself.

Jacob Blackwood knows the danger is real. Once a member of the Order, he fled after discovering its corruption and now lives hidden in the mountains of North Carolina, guarding knowledge passed to him by Enki, a mysterious yogi whose life spans millennia.

Then Sarah Peabody arrives at his cabin, injured, terrified, and hunted.

A former researcher for the Order, Sarah has uncovered secrets they would kill to protect. But her arrival is no accident. As Jacob shelters her, an ancient bond awakens between them-one that has endured through many lifetimes. Soon Sarah discovers that she has a rare ability: she can read the sacred writings of the Crucible itself.

That makes her invaluable.

And it makes her a target.

From a hidden Himalayan monastery to the shadowed chambers of the Crimson Dawn, Sarah and Jacob are drawn into a battle involving mystics, monks, Rosicrucians, ancient beings, lost civilizations, and powers older than recorded history. If the Crucible falls into the wrong hands, its wisdom could become a weapon capable of reshaping the world.

Crucible of the Ancients is a metaphysical fantasy adventure filled with ancient mysteries, forbidden knowledge, spiritual power, past-life love, and the timeless struggle between illumination and domination.
