Beyond Faith & Reason: The Galanor Saga Volume IV: A Novel In Three Parts, Beyond Faith & Reason: The Galanor Saga Volume IV: A Novel In Three Parts

Beyond Faith & Reason: is the fourth and final chapter in the Galanor Saga. Like its predecessors, it begins exactly where the previous installment (Beyond Flesh & Spirit) left off. I hope that you enjoy reading it, half as much as I enjoyed writing it...FMV BOOK ONE: Monsters And Madmen: After learning of Lucifus-Balador's treachery, and his abandonment of hundreds of Atlantean survivors, Galanor sets sail in his new vessel, the Daedalus, to discover their fate. After several years, and thousands of nautical miles, he arrives at land encased with a thick jungle. He might have passed it by, if not for the discovery of a pyramid built along the lines of ancient Atlantis. Leaving his crew behind, in a protected cove, he and Anubis venture into the jungle. There, they find a culture that, after having been influenced by Azool, in the distant past, had turned to blood sacrifice and cannibalism. Inside the pyramid, he learns disturbing truths about the possible fate of the world, and his critical part in it. Book Two: Reunions And Revelations: With the affair at Sacsamu behind them, Galanor, Anubis and the crew of the Daedalus set sail eastward, back to the world they left, years earlier. A few days out to sea, they encounter a massive, hostile creature who, during a battle with Galanor, damages the Daedalus.

Book Three: Beyond Faith And Reason: Upon leaving Calaspara and Azarora, Galanor is convinced that the world, if not the entire universe, is in peril. On his way to Zeptepi, while battling an old enemy, he encounters the mad god. Without his knowledge, she insinuates her venomous tendrils into his soul. Slowly, they take hold. As he fights their growing, maddening influence he realizes that his destiny is at hand. He sets out to engage her, in the name of The One who governs all life, for the final conflict. Along the way finds a safe harbor for Barlusch, meets one last time with those he loves, remedies festering wrongs, and saves, as well as ends, many lives. And then, at the appointed time and place, he meets the mad god, face to face. And...
