Book Description
The ancient magic of wizards was anything but dark. It was the enlightenment that lifted humanity from the squalor of superstition, and the worship of fell spirits and capricious gods, but those days are gone. The shining glory of the sorcerers burned away the subtlety of wisdom, replacing it with easy power, held only in the hands of the elite—a new age built upon the elemental supremacy of aristocrats and the ignorance of the masses. But this will change, for the greatest power comes with knowledge, and the deeper teachings of wizardry have not been utterly lost. The last wizard of the old tradition still survives in solitude, nursing tired grudges and waiting for death. His passing might have gone unnoticed, but for the imposition of a youth too stubborn to accept his refusal to take an apprentice. With a new student comes new hope, and that hope has caused old powers to stir again. That the world will change is inevitable, but the shape of the future is anything but certain.

Book Description
Nothing will stop Eric from avenging his family--not even his death. For six long years, Eric has done everything he could to learn his mother’s and sister’s killer. He slaughtered hundreds of dragons. He suffered gruesome injuries, shattered dreams, and a broken heart. Finally, after his last victory, he has his answer. Ragnor. The magi warn Eric that the task of defeating the second legendary dragon pales in comparison to conquering the first legendary dragon, Indica. The Dragon Hunter Guild’s master, Artemia, cautions him that a mind controlled by rage will only weaken his skills. His mentor, Abe, worries that Eric’s bloodlust blinds him to some dark truths. But Ragnor consumes Eric’s mind. He will not let anything stop him. He would watch everything burn to the ground in the name of vengeance. He knows he will get his chance. But in doing so, he may very well sacrifice everything—including his friends, his world, and himself.

Book Description
Words from the Author I am José Miguel Báez, the esoteric and hermetic philosopher of the books, The Theosophy of Twt-Mos Djoser, The Book of Djehuti, La Filosofía Del Libro De Hermes Mercurio Trismegisto, and finally my last work, The Verbum of Hermes Mercurius Ter Maximus for those who are brave enough to read, analyze, critic and learn the mysteries of ancient religions, philosophy, science, astronomy (astrology), chemistry (alchemy) and Theurgy of the ancient Sumerians, Egyptians and Chaldeans to name a few. I am the spiritual and psychical Hermes Mercurius Ter Maximus since I was able to enchant the heavens, speak with the birds of the sky, the animals of the oceans, the beasts of the fields and have communion with the gods and goddesses and observe their formless form behind all forms and become the man inside of the universal form of the highest G-d, a divine and cosmic androgyny. The true "Book of Thoth" is not physical and in your earthly dimensional confinement but it must be searched and found beyond the confinement of your earthly world and dimensional reality of your space-time and when you have vanquished your fears, egos and stop demonizing others more advance than you then, you will find such a book whose wisdom and understanding will open your mind and heart that you may decide to embrace G-d or be defeated by your own impurities and iniquities for only he and she who have a pure heart and spirit in essence may become one with the Absolute All. Do try your best to live a life in harmony with one another, with all life forms, with Nature and the Earth and the divine and cosmic laws since this is my last reincarnation and I will never again return to you to teach you the hidden, concealed and unrevealed wisdom contain in the primordial ocean of divine mind and spirit. I am the sacred and anointed Magi of the divine androgyny, which exists also as an infinite potential and creating force that permeates, sustains, nourishes and contains all things.
