Homo Intellectus
It's 2029, an asteroid heads for an impact in the Sahara desert following a mysterious change in orbit. Far from being the catastrophic event that had been predicted, an ancient secret is exposed that will re-write the history of mankind.
Was an undiscovered branch of our family tree the foundation for our present civilisation? Who did build the pyramids? What are the markings on the Nazca plain in South America?
The Torah Cult, a secret organisation, set up hundreds of years before, will stop at nothing to prevent the release of any information.
Professor Simon Cartwright and Professor Mary Freeman are thrown together in a fast moving adventure where they travel from Timbuktu to Ayers Rock in Australia via Durham and Bangkok, while they battle to stay alive long enough to reveal the truth.

I really enjoyed this book, this was the authors first book and i am looking forward to the sequel (It seems to pave the way for a sequel). If you like Dan Brown, cosnpiracy theorys and a bit of the X files thrown in for good measure. Not sure what genre this would be. Recommend it to anyone and it's suitable for all ages because although there is a little light romance it's not graphic or sleazy.

This is James Anthony’s first novel, and it does not disappoint. The year is 2029, an asteroid is heading towards earth and is predicted to hit the Sahara desert. However, this asteroid mysteriously changed its own course.
A team goes to investigate the crash, but instead of finding a lump of rock, they uncover an ancient secret which could rewrite human history. A secret organisation called the ‘Torah Cult,’ has tasked themselves to keep this secret from the rest of humanity and will stop at nothing to prevent the truth from being revealed.
The two main characters, Mary Freeman and Professor Simon Cartwright, work together in this quick-paced story which takes them on a journey from Africa, the UK, Thailand, and Australia.
I feel this book would be best suited to an audience of over 12s. A little discretion is needed as there are sections of violence, death, and murder. There is also some love making in the story, but it is not graphic.
Well done James Anthony!
