that reveals how nanotechnology and cloning will change the face of
humanity. BISHOP OF ROME Ancient Truths, Secret Societies, Eight

BISHOP OF ROME THE PAST: It is 410 AD and Rome is aflame; the
Eternal City put to the torch by the invading Visigoths under King
Alaric; writings are rescued from the destruction, holding the
truth about the human race and the existence of an ancient
implacable enemy. Knowledge crucial to the survival of humanity.
BISHOP OF ROME THE FUTURE: Decades hence and Brock Sinclair, THE
PRINCE OF EUROPE, the clone of Charlemagne, after destroying The
City inside London has set his eyes on the ultimate religious
position, THE BISHOP OF ROME, the Papacy itself. He intends to use
his mastery of nanotechnology and the power of the Vatican to
transform the world, as he has already transformed himself. Can
Charles Evans, American billionaire, whose family has been
entrusted with the ancient secrets of the Spear of Dagobert (the
Last of the Merovingian Kings) and his band of friends discover the
ancient writings and use the knowledge contained therein to stop
Sinclair before it is too late? BISHOP OF ROME And what of the
British billionaire banker Roger Barrington and the discovery of
eight identical red-headed female clones in Scotland; and the
ancient Egyptian secret society the Suten-henu: what part do they
play: are they allies who will help Evans, or secret agents for
Sinclair? BISHOP OF ROME is the second book in the Nanoclone
Trilogy, following the first book, PRINCE OF EUROPE. The final
book, KING OF JERUSALEM is due out in 2014.
PRINCE OF EUROPE is set in the near future where unscrupulous men
use breakthroughs in science and technology as weapons to transform
the world. An esoteric society as old as the pyramids lurks in the
ruins of the fabled Cathar fortress, Montsegur. They steal an
obscure mystical artifact known as Dagobert's Lance and lure
billionaire Charles Evans into an ancient mystery that will
transport him beyond the confines of this world and change our
future. Bizzare events confront Evans and others: Eight identical
redheads, a strange pinkish fog in the little town of Firthmoor,
buildings that appear out of nowhere, all connected to the
secretive Centre for Scientific Research. The enigmatic Scottish
Prime Minister Brock Sinclair promises the people of the world an
Era of Abundance, a paradise free from want. Unlike ordinary
politicians, he can deliver. But are we willing to pay his price?
PRINCE OF EUROPE recounts a struggle to control the world in the
first days of technologies so new and powerful that they look like
magic. Will the human race survive the transition, or will it be
transformed into something completely alien?
