(1888PressRelease)
August 05, 2009 - THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE, Volume II of the Sacred Books series, will be released by Blooming Tree Press/CBAY. This installment is certain to justify the publisher’s motto: “Publishing the Banned Books of Tomorrow.” As promised, beginning with Volume II, the series explodes notions of acceptable literary content for “Teen Lit” by venturing boldly into “Da Vinci Code” territory. The questions and speculations surrounding the series can now, in part, be answered.
The last few days have seemed like a lifetime for Dexter and Daphna Wax. Between the various attempts on their lives, the assault on their father, and the discovery that their deceased mother had been thousands of years old—they've endured enough for several lifetimes. They barely have enough energy to stand, let alone to save the world. Unfortunately, they don't have a choice. If they work together, the twins might stand a chance of discovering the truth about The Book of Nonsense. But are they really working together? In this controversial second volume of the Sacred Books Series, brother and sister will need to put their past behind them, because with every passing moment the stakes are getting infinitely higher.
THE BOOK OF NONSENSE pleased and teased readers with a provocative blend of action and intellectual thrills. THE BOOK OF KNOWLEDGE takes the twin protagonists deeper and deeper into the mysterious history of the strange book they’ve found, which in turn takes them deeper and deeper into the mystery that is the history of the world. The incendiary Sacred Books series will continue with THE BOOK OF MAPS and THE BOOK OF ALL THINGS. The author is at work on Volume V now.
