About this ebook
In the future, humanity's fate lies with the Narcalins, a monstrous genetic creation of mankind. But the Narcalins are rebelling, stopping production of a metal only they can obtain, and doing it in a particularly unusual way. The only man that can fix the problem is Dr. John Lambert. The question is, will he succeed, and if so, at what cost?

Humanity's Testament
There came a man, sent from God, whose name was John.
Humanity's Testament, John's Gospel 1:1
The cold and blackened titanium bars in the front of the cell isolated Dr. John Lambert from the Narcalin inside, but he did not feel safe. The dark gray and gritty concrete walls gave off no warmth, only cold and despair. Echoes of dripping from the leaky and corroded water spigot jutting crookedly from the wall to his right, grated upon his nerves and would likely allow no solitude or sleep.
