Origins of The Black Idol

An artifact hidden for centuries. . . A power man was not meant to wield. . . A horror unlike anything ever unleashed. . . Postgraduate student and Renaissance man Julius Godom uncovers the legend of a mysterious artifact rumored to hold the key to human understanding. He sets off on a journey that will take him around the world to India during the Roaring Twenties, chasing the only thing that will quench his thirst for knowledge. From the monsoon-swollen banks of the Ganges to heights of the Himalayan mountains, the search for the Idol threatens to possess Julius' mind with fiery desire. The knowledge contained within is unlike anything he has ever experienced, and now he cannot be without it. . . But a shadowy coterie of assassins has other plans. Julius must navigate steamy markets, lush jungles, and perilous mountains to track down the Idol before it's used to unleash an ancient horror that will rip apart the world with its own carnal desires.
