The Quest for the Pure Child

About this ebook
The mortals of the Sixth Realm had been guided from time immemorial by the immortal angels known as Celestials. When a team of scientists undertakes the first mission of exploration in the Celestial's home dimension, they are totally unprepared for the terrifying discoveries that will forever change the way they view themselves and their world.
Their leader is Tien Nen Cor, a cyborg, who is telepathically linked with his companion, the hideous Steln cyborg AS-147. Among their team are Quelia, an engineer and poet, and Nar, a young Jurnian scientist with three-dimensional dreams. When they encounter a strange angel who threatens all their beliefs about the Celestial Hierarchy and their history, they soon find themselves in league with rebel angels bent on restoring the rule of the ancient Pure Child. In the course of the quest, they must seek out the hidden world of the Stone Guardian, even as the monstrous, mythic evil called the Minog awakens once more to threaten all existence. The heroes of the Sixth Realm will be forever transformed by Celestials' dark secrets in this tale of ancient mystery, political struggle, doomed love, and metaphysical terror.
