Egypt in the twenty-sixth century BC. The young pharaoh Cheops wants to forgo the construction of a pyramid in his honor, but his court sages hasten to persuade him otherwise. The pyramid, they tell him, is not a tomb but a paradox, designed to appease the masses by oppressing them. It is a symbol of nothing, a useless and infinite project designed to waste the country’s wealth and keep security and prosperity, ever the fonts of sedition, constantly at bay. And so the greatest pyramid in the world has ever seen begins to rise. Rumors multiply. A secret police is formed. Conspiracies—real and imagined—swirl around the rising edifice. The most drastic purges follow. By the time the first stone is laid, Cheops’s subjects are terrified enough to yield to his most murderous whims. Each time one of the massive stones is hoisted into place, dozens of men are crushed, and there are tens of thousands of stones. . . .

Follow young Oliver's rebellious coming-of-age in the village of Stillbourne in this comic novel by the radical Nobel Laureate and author of Lord of the Flies. Eighteen is a good time for suffering Welcome to the country town of Stillbourne. Restless teenage resident Oliver wants to enjoy himself before going to university, beginning with his pursuit of the Town Crier's daughter. But in this claustrophobic community - stifled by the English class system, and where everybody knows everyone's business - love, lust and rebellion are closely followed by revenge and embarrassment . . . 'Golding depicts with subtle skill all the pains of growing up and growing old. He treats us to some superb comic episodes.' Daily Telegraph 'Golding's most approachable novel and a curiously personal one, that returns to the mind again and again as if the shames and idylls were one's own.' Guardian 'Neatly drawn, funny and touching . . . The snap, the tang, and the tension in Golding's prose is always a pleasure.' Harper's

In Eye of the Pyramid, author Krohn takes the reader on a fascinating journey through 2000 years of history, all the while laying the foundation for much of the financial corruption seen today. A growing number of readers throughout the country are finding something special in this novel. One reader writes, "Paul Malone seems fated to take his place alongside such popular fictional characters as Clive Cussler's Dirk Pitt and Dan Brown's Robert Langdon." Midwest Book Reviews describes it as "an enthralling and adventurous tale." A housewife in rural Atlanta says, "There were so many places in the novel that were special to me, I simply don't know where to begin," and an attorney in Washington D.C. says, "I savored reading Eye of the Pyramid over many late nights between Christmas and New Years." *** Dr. Paul Malone is a physicist living in contemporary time. Since childhood, he has received cryptic messages from his dreams. Edward Leedskalnin, who died in 1951, single-handedly built the Coral Castle, which stands to this day as a major tourist attraction in Homestead, Florida. How could Ed have moved sixty-thousand pound stones by himself? Esau, the innocent son of shepherds, was born over two thousand years ago in Egypt. What did Esau find in the desert that was to change the course of history? What do these men, these Gifted Ones, have in common? *** Helop lived in Ancient Egypt and was Chief Counsel to Cleopatra.
