Philosophy should give the human being a mental basis that will allow man to lead a happy life and solve the problems of the now. Philosophy does not consist of making things complicated and incomprehensible like today's degenerate philosophies do. In this book, no philosophical phrases are discussed in order to play mental soccer. This book gives basics about life, which one can apply to lead to a fulfilled, happy existence. Basic questions about life itself are solved. What is life? What is man? Is it that a creature arose from mud by chance as science tells you? Or is it that matter is motivated by a soul as the priest makes you believe. Why does man think the way he thinks? What is the goal of existence?

But their best efforts are ruined when a notorious Bulgarian operative known as "Viorica" snatches the volume right out from under them. Iskra "Viorica" Todorova is determined to use the book to secure the thing that matters most--freedom. But a series of strange storms erupts around the globe and the coming dangers foretold in the text threaten crops, lives--entire nations. Though both are haunted by secrets of the past and neither trusts the other, Leif and Iskra must form an uneasy alliance to thwart impending disaster. However, the truth hidden in two- thousand-year-old words could unleash the storm of their own destruction.

It has been forty-years since the Vigilator's wiped out the ZMV's and then having accomplished that gruesome task, they eradicated a small number of werewolves. My father; Jedidiah Drake "The Governor" finally retired from his role as leader of the group known as the Vigilators'. Our mother passed away almost ten-years ago. I moved to Scotland, whilst my father remained in Sevenoaks with my younger sister. He said that he was far too old to be starting a new life in a place that he knew very little about, so he still lives in our grandparent's house and spends his days reading and reminiscing about his exploits to anyone who will listen. As for me? Well, I was doing fine, then once again, the mutation virus raised its ugly head. This time; we are facing something far deadlier than the previous outbreaks, and this is my story.
