by Lane
Heymont
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Jeb,
a former slave, rescues his brother-in-law Crispus from the Ku Klux Klan, only
to be drawn into a world of Creole Voodoo, racism, time travel, and redemption.
Verdiss,
the leader of the Ku Klux Klan has gained possession of the Pharaoh's Staff, a
magical artifact from ancient Egypt and concocted a diabolical plan far more
insidious than himself.
In
the end, Jeb and Crispus must stop an entire people from eradication and each
find redemption for their own past sins.

Excerpt
Three:
Verdiss ran his fingers over the cauldron’s lips, still
amazed at what he’d discovered there. He’d been studying the Oera Linda Book, a
Frisian manuscript discussing the mythologies, histories, and religions of long
lost civilizations. The most prominent was Thule, a land ruled by a blond,
blue-eyed race far superior to mankind. Scholars placed it near Norway. The
Geist Führer’s voice had called Verdiss to the grove of grim, leaning trees. He
spoke of leading the world back to the glorious age when Thule dominated the
world. The Geist Führer promised Verdiss those of tainted blood would be
eradicated. There’d be peace among the worthy.
“Geist Führer.” Verdiss waved his bulbous hands over the
boiling water, pulling the magic from his very will. He hated performing these
accursed rites, but they were a necessity. “I seek your counsel.” The wind
picked up, his robes rustling. An unnatural wind. Power tingled in the air. The
charge grew hotter as Verdiss came closer to contact.
“Dear Verdiss…” came the unholy voice, seething from within
the cauldron.
