Alpha and Omega

by Harry Turtledove
RM42.00 MYR
Compare to estimated retail price: RM143.00 MYR  

The item you've got your eye on is secondhand. You probably already know that, but just in case!

The estimated retail price shown next to any listed item represents the first-hand prices we've seen elsewhere, or the estimated original retail price of a comparable item of the same quality, construction and material offered elsewhere in new condition.

Alpha and Omega
Alpha and Omega

Apocalyptic prophecy meets archaeological suspense.

If speculative fiction that weaves history with harrowing what-ifs fascinates you, "Alpha and Omega" might just be your next page-turner. Turtledove's talent for grounding the extraordinary in the believable makes this more than just another end-of-the-world tale. It will resonate with you long after you've grappled with the profound implications of its twist: the line between myth and reality isn't just blurred—it's completely redrawn.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

What would happen if the ancient prophecy of the End of Days came true? It is certainly the last thing Eric Katz, a secular archaeologist from Los Angeles, expects during what should be a routine dig in Jerusalem. But perhaps higher forces have something else in mind when a sign presaging the rising of the Third Temple is located in America, a dirty bomb is detonated in downtown Tel Aviv, and events conspire to place a team of archaeologists in the tunnels deep under the Temple Mount. There, Eric is witness to a discovery of such monumental proportions that nothing will ever be the same again. Harry Turtledove is the master at portraying ordinary people caught up in extraordinary events, and what is more extraordinary than the incontrovertible proof that there truly is a higher force controlling human destiny? But as to what that force desires . . . well, that is the question.
