THE OLD GODS ARE RETURNING-
AND SOME OF THEM ARE NOT
FRIENDLY!
When Derek Secrest was suddenly pulled out of Naval flight officer school to take part in a top secret government project involving telepathy—because tests showed that he had a strong latent talent for psi powers— he thought things couldn't get weirder. He was wrong.
Soon he was contacted by a mysterious woman who could open portals at will through spacetime. Her powers seemed godlike—and they were. Millennia ago, extra-dimensional beings with great powers had come to earth and taken on human form, remembered in legends as gods and goddesses—and titans, the ancient enemies of the gods. The godlike beings had driven off the titans, but now the old enemy is returning, with a new plan to use humans with psionic abilities to rule the Earth, and not be driven from it this time. And the titans always did have a fondness for human sacrifice.
Unless Derek and a handful of other telepaths can join forces with the ancient gods to defeat the titans, the world will be plunged into a new dark age of terror and death. Even so, judging from mythology, how much can you really trust a god. . .

Product ReviewThe only reason I gave it three stars instead of two is because it really was a good read up untill the end of the book when everything fell apart - the bottom just fell out of the story as if he all of a sudden realized that he had no way to wrap the story up , and besides - he was already late for a lunch date so...type,type,type,type,type...and voila! story done. Let's eat! Ugh. Me-no-likey...sorry...
