<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In this fascinating blend of science, mythology, and language, ancient monuments the world over are being awakened by a signal emanating from deep within the ice of Antarctica. The signal contains secrets that threaten to destroy the world.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>MANKIND HAS HAD 12,000 YEARS TO DECIPHER THE MESSAGE, <br>WE HAVE ONE WEEK LEFT.... <p/>There is a signal emanating from deep within the ice of Antarctica. Atlantis has awoken. Ancient monuments all over the worlds from the Pyramids of Giza, to Mexico to the ancient sites of China are reacting...to a brewing crisis not of this earth, but somewhere out in the solar system. Connecting to each other through the oceans. Using low frequency sound waves to create an ancient network. The earth is thrown into panic stations. For it seems that the signals emanating from Atlantis are a prelude to something much greater. Could it be that the entire city is in fact one giant ancient machine? And to what end? For what purpose? <p/>It is the year 2012, the same year Mayan belief prophesised the end of the world. Two armies, American and Chinese stand on the brink of war for the control of the most potent force ever known to man. The secrets of Atlantis. Secrets which are encoded in crystal shards retrieved from the sunken city. Secrets which Mankind has had twelve thousand years to decipher...but which will now destroy it within one week.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><b>For 12,000 Years, The Message Has Been Buried.</b><br>In a frozen Antarctica wasteland, in the depths of the Amazon River, in a chamber beneath the ruins of the Sphinx, something has surfaced: a cluster of crystalline artifacts composed of an energy source unknown to modern science, and inscribed with ancient hieroglyphs. Between them a strange signal courses through the oceans. Where it emanates from is a source that has stunned mankind. The lost city of Atlantis has been found. <p/><b>It Is The Meaning Of Civilization...</b><br>Now, two of the world's most powerful armies stand on the brink of war to gain control of the most powerful force known to modern man. But a group of scientists struggling to decode the message of the primeval network fears that it is already too late. <p/><b>And Its End...</b><br>Solar fires ignite the surface of the earth, and a worldwide cataclysm of Biblical proportions begins. Now as Atlantis rises, so does its secrets-along with a terrifying prophecy that is coming true. <p/><b>A rocketing adventure. --<i>The Philadelphia Inquirer </i></b> <p/><b>A genuinely exciting scientific thriller conceived on an epic scale. -<i>Bookseller</i> (UK)</b></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"A rocketing adventure...Stel Pavlou's debut novel burst with marvels of scientific chitchat and towers above most recent science fiction." --<i>The Philadelphia Inquirer</i> <p/>"Few debuts are as ambitious as Decipher. Exhilaratingly imaginative." --<i>Sunday Times (UK)</i> <p/>"A wide-screen special-effects Technicolor blast; perfect for a Hollywood blockbuster." --<i>The Times (London)</i> <p/>"Deep, smart, and well-researched." --<i>SFX</i> <p/>"A fascinating blend of science, mythology, language, and much more." --<i>The Independent (London)</i> <p/>"If Michael Crichton isn't nervous, he should be. Not only has Stel Pavlou written a scientific thriller that's as tautly plotted a roller-coaster ride as anything Crichton's ever written, but he's done so using intelligent characters, and a clever, synergistic premise. The weaving of scientific detail with imagination is superb and unparalleled." --<i>Zentertainment.com</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Stel Pavlou</b> is the screenwriter for <i>The 51st State</i>, starring Samuel L Jackson. <i>Decipher</i> is his first novel.
