Australian Authors Publish Apocalyptic Novel with Dorrance Publishing

"Apocalypse or a Golden Age?," a new book by Sandy Weeks and Jo Nitschke, has been released by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Sandy Weeks and Jo Nitschke have presented some fascinating views on the controversial hypothesis of possible events to occur in 2012, which have long been foretold, even as far back as the Mayan people.

The story is told from the viewpoints of brothers Zac and Jake, and their friends Lil, Emma, and an illusive aboriginal named Jimmy. While the tale begins with the witnessing of a seemingly supernatural event, which could be a day of reckoning, their thoughts take them back five years to a time when a mysterious, ancient map was found, which takes the four main characters on "an extraordinary journey of discovery."

To quote the authors, "Was it a supernatural event interpreted as the return of an expected savior that was now happening before their own eyes, or was it a hoax?" They combine their four different specialties in an attempt to determine the nature of this event and what it means to the world.

Jo Nitschke has spent over twenty years building an extensive library and knowledge base of technological, esoteric writings, and publications that are not necessarily covered by mainstream media.
