Arkfall
THE THRILLING SEQUEL TO THE ARK OF THE FIRST GODS
When the world's digital infrastructure collapses and alien forces descend upon Earth, humanity’s last hope is a man who was never meant to exist.
Adam Freeman, born of shadowed lineage and cosmic mystery, finds himself at the center of a war between ancient extraterrestrial factions, each seeking to control a power buried deep beneath the sands of Egypt. As governments fall into chaos, zealots rise, and skies ignite with interstellar conflict, Adam races to unlock the secrets of the Ark of the First Gods—an artifact older than civilization itself.
Pursued by a vengeful warlord, manipulated by hidden forces, and torn between worlds, Adam must harness the power awakening within him before it consumes everything he loves—or leaves the Earth defenseless.
From the catacombs of Giza to the battle-scarred skies above, ARKFALL is a mind-bending fusion of ancient mystery, cutting-edge science fiction, and pulse-pounding action. The fate of the world is written in forgotten stone—and Adam is the only one who can read it.
The Ark is awakening.
The war for Earth has only just begun.
Critical Reviews
“A masterful and imaginatively ambitious piece of science fiction, showcasing exceptional writing...Pollack’s ability to balance intense action sequences with thoughtful exposition results in a thoroughly rewarding read for fans of sophisticated speculative fiction.” Readers’ Favorite
“Pollack writes with cinematic energy. I was hooked from the very first page...For me it was a ride worth taking, and one I’d step onto again.” Literary Titan
"Pollack is not interested in a modest corner of the universe or a small technological puzzle. Instead, his worldbuilding is cosmic, metaphysical, and deeply entwined with speculative ideas about time, history, and the architecture of reality." Independent Book Review
“Pollack has a flair for going the extra mile with drama, and in this conclusive blockbuster, he elevates the series and ends on a real high...An epic finale that satisfies on every level.” Readers’ Favorite
