Book excerpt: “Part post-apocalypse, part road-trip, part sword-and-sorcery . . . One of my favorite adventure novels of all time.” —Cory Doctorow At four-thirty one Saturday afternoon the laws of physics as we know them underwent a change. Electronic devices, cars, industries stopped. The lights went out. Any technology more complicated than a lever or pulley simply wouldn't work. A new set of rules took its place—laws that could only be called magic. Ninety-nine percent of humanity has simply vanished. Cities lie abandoned. Supernatural creatures wander the silenced achievements of a halted civilization. Pete Garey has survived the Change and its ensuing chaos. He wanders the southeastern United States, scavenging, lying low. Learning. One day he makes an unexpected friend: a smartassed unicorn with serious attitude. Pete names her Ariel and teaches her how to talk, how to read, and how to survive in a world in which a unicorn horn has become a highly prized commodity. When they learn that there is a price quite literally on Ariel's head, the two unlikely companions set out from Atlanta to Manhattan to confront the sorcerer who wants her horn. And so begins a haunting, epic, and surprisingly funny journey through the remnants of a halted civilization in a desolated world.

This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 1042 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, in English version, starting from the researches of the Sumerologist Zecharia SItchin, of the organic chemist Corrado Malanga, tries to demonstrate through the use of philosophical-ontological concepts, the validity in particular of Corrado Malanga's research concerning, among other things, anthropomorphic-humanoid-differently physical and exodimensional-esoterrestrial beings, which for centuries have been operating on planet Earth, to achieve their own end. This "Interpretation of John's Apocalypse-subtitle-A new hermeneutics-epistemology of History", expands the discourse, of the previous "The authentic mimetic meaning of Christianity and religious esotericism" by the author himself, incorporating the text into his internal, with the addition of new material, trying to unify-decode politics-economics-exobiology-terrestrial human history-fairy-tale literature-esoteric symbolism-artistic-philosophical works-advertising communications and spoken language. In the literary-philosophical-artistic-political-economic-commercial advertising field, further texts-images etc. could be considered. but to avoid an excessive increase in the pages of the book, we have chosen not to do so. An interrelated whole that always shows the same project aimed at the theft of the terrestrial human soul, through the construction of a genetic crossing race between terrestrial humans and exodimensional-exoterrestrial-energetic parasites of various physical nature. All covered under a self-referring-mystical apologetic, symbolic-religious metaphoric, which reveals among other things, the esoteric-religious crucible represented-syncretized over time, by Christianity-Catholicism. Some artistic-literary-musical works are decoded by-in their metaphorical-symbolic content, revealing concrete meanings other than the hermeneutic custom of which they were the object. The esoteric turns out to be biological exoteric.
