Book excerpt: Leoros doesn't have many friends. As the son of a scientist and archeologist, he is constantly on the move. When his parents discover the mythic Emerald Tablet buried beneath Egypt's desert, he decodes the ancient text which leads him to a distant world, and suddenly his world is turned upside down. On that world, a slave girl begins a journey towards a destiny she cannot imagine. But when an ancient foe rises from the ashes, they will be brought together by forces neither understands. Leoros, who dreams of being like the heroes in the comic books, must fight to unlock the secrets of the universe to save a people he never knew existed. Atlantia, whose bloody visions wake her in the night, senses the darkness coming. Together they will face an enemy with the power of dark energy, lose a mentor to the assassin's blade, and be betrayed by someone they trust. Their fight for the future is just beginning, and before it is over, a final sacrifice must be made. When the darkness comes, will they stand and fight or will they join it? There is darkness in everyone. Do you wish you could have the power of a god? Would you use it for good...or for evil? Silverman combines spiritual alchemy, Greek mythology, Egyptian gods and culture to produce a science fiction fantasy series you just can't put down once you start reading. His knowledge of Greek and Egyptian history is meticulously portrayed throughout Legends of Amun Ra-The Emerald Tablet. This book is a must read for any sci-fi fantasy reader. You will instantly become a Silverman fan.
