HATHOR’S HOLOCAUST. (An
Anson Hunter novel)
Can a rogue Egyptologist
stop an ancient Egyptian apocalypse of plague and global scorching? An
apocalyptic danger has arisen from the ancient past in Egypt today bringing a
threat to the Middle East and also to the West - of plague, pestilence, fiery
destruction and global scorching. Anson Hunter, controversial, alternative
Egyptologist, theorist, blogger and phenomenologist is the hero of this
historical adventure novel with a rich mythological vein. Followed by Western
Intelligence organizations, shadowed by a mysterious androgyne assassin, he
must race to avert a crisis in a quest spanning USA, Britain and Egypt. Who is
behind the plan to trigger an apocalypse? Neo-religionists, Torchbearers with a
dangerous New Age agenda, Christian dispensationalists who are eager to bring
on the 'end times' or radical Islamists with a hatred of the West? In
mythology, Ra Egypt's sun god, hurled an execration upon a rebellious humankind
and, in a hot rage, despatched the scorching Eye of Ra, a holocaust sun in the
form of the goddess Sekhmet, to destroy them. A marauding lioness, her breath
spread pestilence and plague and her claws and teeth death as she swept through
Egypt in an orgy of killing. Then Ra had second thoughts and halted her
apocalypse. But the execration had been uttered and it was always feared that
the inherently unstable agent of destruction - the Female Soul With Two Faces -
would one day return to finish off what she had started, cleansing the earth.
