Volume 1.0 of The Unveiling Series
Chicago's wealthiest trust fund kid, Max Battenberg, has always been blessed with an amazing existence. His idyllic life, however, comes crashing down just months shy of his 25th birthday when he participates in the ancestral rite of passage known as the Battenberg Initiation. During the bizarre ceremony, his family's dark secret is finally revealed. The Battenbergs are descended from an alien bloodline spoken of in ancient Sumerian mythology. Since the dawn of civilization, Max's family and others like them have ruled as the Pharaohs of Egypt and the royals of Europe. In modern times, however, the clan of blue bloods has retreated into the shadows to continue their tyrannical reign. At less than one percent of the population, they easily maneuver, unseen, hidden behind the veils of politics, law and banking. As their newest initiate, Max must soon pick a side. Will he continue his legacy's treacherous agenda of world domination? Or might he embrace the prophecy of a peculiar psychic to become one of the greatest liberators of all time? 1.0 is the first book of The Unveiling Series. Origins of The Unveiling Series Before Egypt and long before the Bible there was the Empire of Sumer, Earth's oldest documented civilization. Their mythology proposes that we were once visited by a technologically advanced race from beyond Earth (the Anunnaki) who would forever change the course of humanity. Sumer, more recently called Mesopotamia, is largely known today as Iraq. Through its borders run the legendary rivers the Tigris and Euphrates, spoken of in the Old Testament. Uncanny similarities between the story of the Bible and Sumerian mythology don't just end there. Many conspiracy theorists propose that, based on its history, Iraq has for centuries housed a wealth of ancient, extraterrestrial secrets that have nothing to do with oil or traditional weapons of mass destruction. Could this have been the true reason for the U.S. invasion of Iraq: the search for alien technology? The Unveiling books, 1.0 and 2.0, combine myth, fact and fiction in a clever retelling of one of the world's oldest known accounts of how modern man was born. What if the truth behind man's origins was hidden in plain sight all along?
