They knew us before we began to walk upright. Shamans called them guardians, mythmakers called them tricksters, pagans called them gods, churchmen called them demons, folklorists called them shape-shifters. They’ve obligingly taken any role we’ve assigned them, and, while needing nothing from us, have accepted whatever we thought was their due – love, hate, fear, worship, condemnation, neglect, oblivion. Even in modern times, when their existence is doubted or denied, they continue to extend invitations to those who would travel a different road, a road not found on any of our cultural maps. But now, perceiving us as a threat to life itself, they issue their invitations with a dark purpose of their own. In this dazzling metaphysical thriller, four who put themselves in the hands of these all-but-forgotten Others venture across a sinister American landscape hidden from normal view, finding their way to interlocking destinies of death, terror, transcendental rapture, and shattering enlightenment.

The Tanakh, also known as the Hebrew Bible, is a collection of sacred texts that provide insight into the religious beliefs and cultural practices of ancient Israel. Comprised of three main sections the Torah (Law), the Nevi'im (Prophets), and the Ketuvim (Writings) the Tanakh covers a wide range of topics such as history, poetry, prophecy, and moral teachings. The text is written in a mix of prose and poetry, showcasing different literary styles and themes that were prominent in ancient Jewish literature. The Tanakh serves as a foundational text for both Judaism and Christianity, making it a crucial source for understanding the religious and historical context of the ancient Near East. Various authors contributed to the compilation of the Tanakh over centuries, resulting in a diverse collection of voices and perspectives that reflect different historical periods and cultural influences. The authors' shared goal was to preserve and transmit the religious teachings and traditions of the Jewish people for future generations, emphasizing the importance of faith, ethics, and social responsibility. I highly recommend the Tanakh to readers interested in exploring the rich tapestry of ancient Hebrew literature and gaining a deeper understanding of the religious and cultural heritage of the Jewish people.
