The Armageddon Conspiracy


Mike Hockney - 2008
    The Armageddon Conspiracy reveals the identity of this shadow organisation, an organisation stranger than anyone can imagine, so mysterious in its nature that its origins precede the very existence of the human race. All of history's well-known conspiracy theories are aspects of their single conspiracy - a superconspiracy - that has as its goal the most stupefying outcome imaginable. The superconspiracy links the Old and New Testaments, the Cathars, the Knights Templar, the Alchemists, the Freemasons and the Nazis. It incorporates the three holiest religious relics of the Western World: the Ark of the Covenant, the Holy Grail and the Spear of Destiny. And it's inextricably linked to the most sacred site of antiquity - King Solomon's Temple, standing above the rock where Creation began. The Armageddon Conspiracy is a fast-paced thriller with a truly terrifying climax. Can Creation be unmade?

One Hundred Days of Solitude: Losing Myself and Finding Grace on a Zen Retreat


Jane Dobisz - 2007
    “3:15 A.M. Wake Up. 3:20 300 Bows. 4:00 Ma. 4:15 Sitting. 4:45 Walking.” And so it goes, for 100 days. Dobisz, inspired by her Korean Zen master’s discipline of long, solitary retreats, has decided to embark on a retreat of her own. The unfolding story of her experience is related here. The suburban-raised Dobisz weaves amusing anecdotes about learning to live a Walden-like existence — water comes from a well, wood needs to be chopped — with Zen teachings and striking insights into the miracles and foibles of the human mind when there’s nothing on hand to distract it. Entertaining and inspiring, the book is a joyous testament to the benefits that solitude and reflection can bring to all.
