Book Description
In a future where Earth teeters on the edge of collapse, humanity looks beyond the stars for salvation. The crowded, resource-depleted planet finds a glimmer of hope in the asteroid belt, home to the remnants of an ancient and advanced civilization known as Vulcan. Among the debris of their lost world lie treasures far beyond material wealth—secrets that hold the power to reshape humanity's fate. As a diverse group of explorers, treasure hunters, scientists, and spiritualists converge on the asteroid belt, they quickly realize that Vulcan’s legacy isn’t just about forgotten technologies. The true riches of Vulcan lie in the experiences, connections, and ancient wisdom that challenge their very understanding of existence. Each faction—whether driven by greed, discovery, or reverence—embarks on dangerous missions to uncover the relics of Vulcan. With rivalries boiling and agendas clashing, the journey takes them through ancient traps, mind-bending puzzles, and moral challenges that test not only their courage but their capacity for trust and empathy. Along the way, they discover that Vulcan’s greatest lesson is one of unity: true wealth comes not from resources but from shared purpose and the bonds forged through adversity. As tensions rise and factions prepare for a climactic confrontation, these unlikely allies must decide whether they will repeat the mistakes of the past or rise above their differences to create a future that honors Vulcan’s enduring legacy. In the end, the lessons they learn may just be the key to not only saving Earth but unlocking the next evolution of humanity. Scattered Gods: Recycling Vulcan is a thrilling exploration of ancient civilizations, cosmic mysteries, and the discovery that the most valuable treasures are the relationships and adventures shared along the way.

The Chronicles of Sekhmet on Olmecra
Author: Z. P. Foy
Publisher: indigo ptah
ISBN: 1973168677
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 83
Book Description
Goddess Sekhmet is a Legendary Lioness-Woman tasked with raising the vibrational energies of humans, on a specific part of the Earth. Without the elevation in vibrations, Earth will not be able to ascend with the other planets in the galaxy. She is Super Woman rolled up into Mother Nature. The Matriarchy of the Kemetic Pantheon and Cosmic Goddesses, are the protagonist of the book; displaying their best nurturing attributes. The story is being told from a divine feminine perspective in a way Goddess Sekhmet is not traditionally typified. For those who study the Ancient Egyptians and/or Kemet, metaphors will develop into myth. And for those who are new to the subject matter; the interaction of the immortals with humans will encourage readers to seek what is seeking them. This novella is unique in that few stories are dedicated to the African Cosmic Pantheon as compared to books popularized by Greek and Roman mythology. Book One is written as the first of a series of seven novellas that chronicle how the Goddess Sekhmet gets Earth to ascend. The stories may seem controversial to some; but are non-confrontational. The main antagonist is, Systematic Internal Societal Illness, SISI. And the story-line is never meant to accuse anyone or any group of people. What is emphasized is the misuse of spirituality and the decline of the human condition. Overall, the concept of "Personal Agency" is encouraged, so the reader expands their thoughts, on their individual journey; and how their purpose fits in the Universe.
