About this listen
ARCHAEOLOGY IS HIS PROFESSION. PROTECTING HUMANITY IS HIS CALLING.
On some level, Dr. Gideon Wolf hoped that being a demigod would have its perks. Not necessarily throngs of adoring worshipers continuously bowing at his feet, but at least, you know, a lull maybe in the endless onslaught of assassins sent to kill him and steal his power.But since reluctantly assuming the mantle of one of seven guardians of humanity—for Gideon a perplexing and occasionally unwelcome “honor” bestowed upon him by fate—he’s been shocked by how many lost souls he’s supposed to protect want him dead.
Gideon is the first new guardian chosen in ages, and being the first doesn’t make things any easier. Humanity is in crisis—beset on all sides by evil, avaricious forces bent on total global enslavement—but in addition to having to learn all his new powers and figure out how to use them, Gideon must also identify and recruit the six other guardians who will help him save mankind.
How to identify them? Gideon doesn’t know. If he does somehow locate the rest of them, how is he supposed to convince these six other everyday people of their grand cosmic destiny and indispensable role in the salvation of the planet? Without them thinking he’s crazy? Again, Gideon doesn’t know.
What he does know is his presence and newfound powers have attracted the attention of some very bad, very powerful people. Apparently, leaders of some of the oldest, most venerated institutions on earth want him dead—before he’s able to assemble his team. That sordid fact begs other, more troubling questions, for Gideon and for humanity.
A man of faith and perseverance, Gideon believes in the proverb that to whom much is given, much is required, but surely the gods could give him an occasional push in the right direction. Before it’s too late.
USA Today best-selling author Ernest Dempsey returns with the third gripping installment of his fan-favorite Gideon Wolf series. With Dempsey’s signature blend of history, myth, and mystery, the ultimate fate of Gideon Wolf will be as shocking as his destiny.

Story
An archaeological thriller with an X-Files feel that will take you on a pulse-pounding ride you won't soon forget. When an unknown American explorer goes missing in the Patagonia, not many people notice—at first. But as Chilean authorities investigate, they’re alarmed. This isn’t a one-off disappearance. In fact, scores of people have vanished in this vast swath of nature in recent years. And no one knows why. Journals left behind by the explorer suggest he was searching for a mythical Inca city and the promise of unimaginable wealth and power. Chilean officials doubt the wild claims ...

UNIMAGINABLE POWER LIES HIDDEN UNDER THE SANDS OF THE SAHARAThe god-like power promised by the lost desert city of Zerzura is as frightening as it is alluring. Former secret agent Sean Wyatt and his best friend, Tommy Schultz, have never hunted anything like it. But the legend and the unlimited power it promises are so improbable that other archeologists—including Tommy’s parents—gave up looking for Zerzura decades ago. Most call it a myth. That all changes when a chance discovery in the Middle East reveals long-hidden clues about the possible truth behind the Zerzura legend and ...
