Overview
The story unravels in the dusty dryness of Baghdad, Iraq, which reminded Jake of Woomera, and the Colony of Clones. Living in a science-fiction reality, Dago from the Colony sees it as his duty to take control in his hero-quest to take-over as a world leader. A spume of volcanic ash erupts at Medina and Mecca, forcing thousands of gallons of oil-enriched emissions skywards. This in turn affects Muslim pilgrims as they make their way through the Zamzam valley to the Ka'bah, Islam's most holy site. Adventure lies ahead, querying the tomes of antiquity. Dago had done it again: First the bomb at the Vatican and, now, the eruption at Medina and Mecca; boundaries are crossed in an all-consuming blur. Dago's appearance does not raise eyebrows, as a unique saviour is common to many religious beliefs. Dago believes that by unlocking the genome he and his sister, Mary, obtain their potential, becoming not only world leaders but gods. Dago sets out on his hero-quest, dragging Ator with him, boasting they are perfect organisms made for the survival of their selfish genes. From antiquity to the modern day, the reader is engaged in a journey of discovery that could define either the future, or end in the destruction of mankind.
