Epiphany

Past is prologue, and they who will not learn the lessons of the past, are doomed to repeat them. - Shakespeare

In his newest novel Epiphany, Author Steve Lee takes a unique and often thought-provoking look at our world, and the clear “Rise and Fall” pattern in particular etched throughout mankind’s storied past. Carefully blending historical events that define this pattern in human history with a number of disturbing accounts ripped from today’s headlines, Lee has crafted an epic tale that blends past and present, even as it deftly trends modern civilization forward to its disturbing and logical end.

Clearly anything but your typical formulaic pulp fiction piece, “Epiphany offers a unique look at who we are, and where we are headed,” says Lee. “Though initially intended to be an entertaining read, this piece quickly developed something of a message and warning voice all on its own – a message that carries with it a deep sense of urgency and foreboding.”

Living at the outskirts of a small town in Iowa, a young farm boy named Josh Peterson, finds his life rocked by a series of reoccurring dreams. Considering them at first to be little more than the product of an overactive imagination, Josh finds himself jolted from reality one day as two figures suddenly emerge from these dreams and intervene in an effort to save his life.

As the years pass, this event and the images that seemingly spawned it, come to shape Josh's life, preparing him for a crisis far beyond anything he had ever thought possible. In a world growing all the more dysfunctional with each passing year, he and his family watch as greed and political corruption coalesce to push civilization to the lip of an abyss, even as it draws Josh into the heart of this sweeping crisis. As events steadily devolve to the point of no return, Josh suddenly discovers the mysterious figures from his dreams are but messengers for something far beyond us – something that had anticipated this culminating event in all its misery, eons before the advent of modern man.

“If you relish the opportunity to read a piece that seems destined to become a modern classic – one which gracefully lays bare an expansive picture of time itself in vibrant detail, even as it tells the story of our own civilization's demise so close to reality that it will run a sharp chill down your spine – then this is the story you have waited your whole life to read. Take it. Run home and devour its every page; now, while there is still time. Do it before any more of its prophetic voice is allowed to come to pass and you find your delay has only hastened our end. Now, before you realize your hesitation has sealed our fate, as it empowers those who are today pressing our world downward, into the abyss that is now opening up before our very eyes... ,” adds Lee.
