When Captain Pieter Thomas arrived in the New World roughly one
hundred years after Columbus, he sought a new and more prosperous
life as a fisherman in the fertile waters of the Caribbean. What he
found, or rather, what found him, is an entirely different story.
When a pair of ancient Arawak tomes are unearthed on the island of
Camahogne, their discovery sets off a chain of events never
recorded in the traditional annals of history. Word of this
revelation soon reaches Jeringas Mortifer, the malevolent king of
the mainland south, who long desired to find the tomes of the lost
prophecy and unlock the secrets of the scripture for himself. To
recover them, the king sends forth his most harrowing servant - a
mysterious being older than all of human history, with terrifying
powers and an agenda of his own. Shortly after the birth of his
first son, Captain Thomas has a chance encounter with a local
fortune teller, who confides that his family is at the very center
of the unfolding lost prophecy. While a skeptical Pieter initially
dismisses her claim as primitive folklore, he is dangerously
unaware of the many pieces in play, and that the hunt for his
infant son had already begun. Beautifully composed and amazingly
descriptive, Cimmerian Rising is a heart pounding adventure over
exotic lands and faraway seas. Intentionally styled as a complete
departure from the standard formulaic narrative and written in high
definition, Cimmerian Rising will utterly transport you into
another world and a forgotten time, arriving at the very colorful
genesis of Eternidad.

Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and
moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade.
The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and
Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a
