Book Description
In the Popol Vuh, I found this strange path to the stars. It was many years ago when I decided to study Architecture. I, instead, entered a whole new area of study, one that encompassed the whole world, but it eventually zeroed in on a major catastrophe in the Americas. All versions of the Popol Vuh and the Chumayel tell of the disaster as future prophecies. and yes, they should be prophecies, since if we don't know the origin, how will we learn to protect ourselves when and if another similar event occurs?

The Amazing Adventures of Roy Hicks
Author: Nalle Windahl
Publisher: BoD - Books on Demand
ISBN: 9179699553
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Ah, I see... you flipped to this side to see what the book is about? Well, I am sorry to disappoint you. On this side of this book I will tell you why you should read this book, and not what the book is about... why is that then? Well, because what the book is really about is what it states in the title... No point in repeating that here... and if you want to know what adventures it might be, it is better to read them inside the book, than to get some examples of them here on the back of the cover... I mean, it would not be fair to the adventures that make up an entire book and try to squeeze them into a few words, here on the back of the book, would it? If you should read this book or not depends on if you have read the first book in this series. If not, you really don't have to. But it might be a good idea to start at the beginning. Now, if you have read the first book, and you expect to continue the story just about where the first book ended, I am sorry to disappoint you, because you will have to wait for the fourth book to continue that part of the story. In this book, and the next book, you will get other pieces of the puzzle, pieces that will make the fourth book much more pleasant to read, even if book two and three is not necessary to read to be able to enjoy the over all story. But I promise that you will lack some important pieces and details that will make the whole reading experience of the fourth book possibly confusing. And if you are fine with that, then absolutely no need to read this book. But if you are one of those who are curious and kind of want the whole picture, I definitely recommend reading this book as well. And the third, once it gets published. Enjoy! ^..^
