Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. It is not the Classical Myth you know, and certainly not a contemporary retelling.In 1968, a chest containing seventy-six manuscripts was uncovered during the excavations of Pompeii. These were the Lost Books of the Library of Alexandria. Professor Matteo Dericci devoted his life to studying them-and reached conclusions that defied convention.What if Classical Myth is more than myth: the surviving echo of another world's history?What if fiction is real, and reality itself a fiction?This account offers clues as to why the truth may have been altered-and how. It is not a story of Poseidon's violence or Athena's injustice. Older gods, older powers, older laws move beneath the ashes.And from those ashes, Medusa rises.A dark myth of prophecy, ruin, and the daughters of a broken age.In the shadow of an ancient catastrophe, three sisters-Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale-struggle to survive among the remnants of a fallen civilization. Haunted by inherited wounds and driven from what little safety remains, they set out in search of a new home.When a dying messenger delivers a warning from the edge of death, the sisters are forced onto a path that leads toward queens, monsters, and a gathering catastrophe. Armies are moving. Ancient powers are stirring. And whatever hunts the world now is older than rumor and crueler than memory.As visions tighten their hold on Medusa, the bond between the sisters is tested by hunger, prophecy, and fear of what she may become. To survive, they must cross a land of broken peoples and fading gods. But survival is no longer the same thing as salvation.Mythic in scale yet intimate in feeling, this dark fantasy novella weaves prophecy, sisterhood, survival, and the ruins of a lost world into a story where even hope may arrive in corrupted form.Everything returns to where it began. But in this world, never in its true form. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In 1968, a chest containing seventy-six manuscripts was uncovered during the excavations of Pompeii. These were the Lost Books of the Library of Alexandria. Professor Matteo Dericci devoted his life to studying them-and reached conclusions that defies convention.Mermadian Nightmares Light can be stolen.Darkness can be divided.But salvation cannot be forced.When the Gods fractured the primordial world, they believed they understood creation. They did not foresee the Primas-creatures born of light and corrupted by possession. Nor did they expect one among billions to rise without darkness in him.Primus.As he descends into the abyss to challenge Vulkar-the tyrant who commands forty living whips-the fate of light itself trembles.Part scripture. Part epic. Part forbidden chronicle.Mermadian Nightmares is the first volume of a mythic saga that explores power, corruption, salvation, and the cost of misreading divine will.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. One truth was difficult enough.Then he discovered the others.Beyond Haridan lies a world the nameless seeker never knew existed.Other peoples.Other gods.Other histories.Events he was raised to consider sacred are remembered differently by strangers. Names change from one people to another. Every tradition possesses signs, witnesses and reasons to believe that its version is the true one.For the first time, he also discovers something his old world rarely gave him: belonging.Friendship.A place among others.But accepting a people may also mean accepting their gods.And the farther he travels, the harder one question becomes to escape: If every belief contains evidence, how can a seeker recognize the truth?Book of the Devil II expands the search beyond one religion and into a world of competing memories, gods and histories-where every answer creates another question.Book of the Devil I is a philosophical mythic fantasy about revelation, memory, free will and the birth of religion.Before the Devil had a name, he wanted only to know the truth.And for the first time, the boy begins to wonder whether the sacred history surrounding him is really the history that happened.Book of the Devil begins not with Satan, but with a child searching for God.A mythological and philosophical novel about revelation, memory, free will-and the terrifying possibility that truth can survive while its meaning does not.Before the Devil had a name, he wanted only to know the truth.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Ancient Fiction-or the Truth? For me, it all began in 2017, when I met Valeria Dimarco. That was when I first heard about the Lost Books-and about Dericci's involvement in translating them. "Back in 1968," Valeria had begun, "seventy-six books were discovered beneath Pompeii." This is the one. The very first book Dericci translated-and the very last of the seventy-six to have been written.The one that dates back to the 3rd century BCE and tells why the Library of Alexandria was built.But most importantly, it is the one that contains his book: The Book of the Lost One. A mysterious oracle who claims to remember events older than the world itself.He speaks of Creation with absolute certainty.Then he orders that the world's greatest library be built in Alexandria. Liber Perditorum-a book for those who are searching still. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Unlike anything you have read before.And perhaps not fiction in the way fiction is usually understood.In the final days of 1968, a chest filled with books was discovered beneath the ruins of Pompeii. Novels. Chronicles. Political records. Sacred texts.At first glance, there was nothing extraordinary about them. Nothing except their existence."Fraud!" Professor Dericci called them.If for no other reason, simply because the books had survived the centuries.But then he realized that something beneath the language resisted interpretation.So he changed the lens through which he read them.And the books revealed their contents. Something older still than mythology.A history from which mythology itself may have descended.A rational account of something the ancient peoples believed.What if they created our world-and us-only to sustain theirs?What if our lives, our actions, our decisions carry the utmost importance for the survival of the heavens?For there had been a cosmic war.And perhaps-there still is.
