In 16 hours, the world as we know it will end... In less than a day, the most gigantic solar storms ever seen by modern man will overwhelm the magnetosphere of the planet squelching it down to a fraction of its normal size. The moment that happens, intense solar radiation will burn through the atmosphere and scorch the surface of the earth for the entire time the storms are active. After the monster flares cease, the magnetic field will take two centuries to restore full coverage and protection. Our modern civilization is incapable of withstanding the first assault of the solar disaster, and most of our technology will be destroyed or rendered inoperable, knocking us back to the steam age in terms of infrastructure and functional machinery. And worse, unfiltered radiation from ordinary sunlight will begin to cause widespread infertility and radiation damage to whatever life that manages to survive the initial solar storms. And the only people who know about the coming disaster are all on the same secret island base in the Bahamas, where an impossible artifact from Mayan history has just been discovered to contain an ancient and mysterious consciousness with knowledge of the impending solar disaster... and maybe more. She might know how to stop the danger, or she might want to see our species destroyed.Then in the middle of this imminent earth-shattering catastrophe, a newly sentient supercomputer has a temper tantrum with the President of the United States and sets off a chain of dominoes which throws another world-ending danger into the countdown to doom. - - - - - - - - THE FINAL FIRE OF BRIGHT SKIES picks up the story at the same instant THE WRATH OF THE INVISIBLE SWORD ended, and the pace is now racing. This book covers the next nine hours out of only sixteen hours left in the world. The action is spiraling into a tornado of mystery, intrigue and danger that stretches back over 78 millennia. The same minute-by-minute style in the modern timeline creates a story that will drag you in and not let you go until you finish, with characters that get inside your head and don't come out. Lucian Randolph has created an intelligent, epic universe that's so real, the saga will keep playing in your thoughts and dreams long after you've put it down. And in typical fashion, this installment finishes in a dramatic cliffhanger that'll leave you wondering how this twisted tale is going to end. Then you'll scramble to read the sixth and final book, THE SEED OF THE SUN'S HEART, to find out how Lucian is going to tie together all the loose ends.
