The Altar Path

by Joseph C. Lisiewski

Defiance, Pennsylvania, has disappeared from the map and memories of everyone who ever knew of it, except for three men who grew up there. Neil Lesko, an American scientist living in Scotland; Virgil Romanoff, a Catholic Priest; and Michael Kelly, a man whose overwhelming hate drove him to seal off the town from the world by the blackest of magical practices. The two former friends, Lesko and Romanoff, are forced to renew their friendship, and confront their own dark past in the occult sciences. Together, they must return to the place where Defiance once stood, and find a way to penetrate into the "Experiment of the Veil" that conceals the town. Accompany Lesko and Romanoff on their desperate flight from Europe to America. Follow them as they use reason and half-forgotten magical practices to confront the world of magical chaos and human insanity that lies waiting beyond the 'Veil.' Struggle with them as they overcome their own weaknesses and fears, calling upon the courage and valor that resides in the Powers of Light. Stand with these warriors, as they give final battle to the evil that is Michael Kelly and his demonic minions at the end of The Altar Path. Joseph C. Lisiewski, Ph.D., is a noted physicist involved in the study of Relativistic Space-Time Continuum, and has published numerous nonfiction books and papers in the Occult, Magic, and Alchemy since 1980.
