From an early age everyone knew that Jacob Saylor was different, possessing mental abilities that rivaled even the world's most advanced intellects. Abilities that reveal to him a pattern underlying all things, a potential answer to all of life's greatest mysteries and a path to unification with the divine. So as a rash and impulsive young man he runs away into the shadowy conflicts of the Middle East's religiously fueled warfare, determined to find the answers. But then after years of research he and his Army Ranger brother travel into the desert to locate the final missing piece - and inexplicably vanish... only to reappear nearly two years later in a small Tajik village, horribly scarred and unable to remember where they have been. When his brother finally brings him home to America, the man who was once the world's most promising scientific mind is broken, plagued by madness and completely shattered by an experience he cannot recall. But fate is not done with Jacob Saylor... Over the course of the next decade he will realize that something is growing inside him, something so terrible and powerful that he must learn to master it before he accidentally shred the very fabric of reality. A power that the world will desperately need very soon - for a horrifying conflict is coming. A cataclysmic war with cybernetic monsters made of our darkest and most terrifying nightmares.Mankind's only hope will be a broken man. A man who will have to turn and face the consequences of tampering in God's domain if he is to become what the world will so desperately need - our last, and final hero.
