Glass House

Glass Trilogy #1

by Max Overton, Ariana Overton

Delve deep into the mysteries of Aboriginal mythology, present day UFO activity and pure science that surround the continent of Australia, from its barren deserts to the depths of its rainforest and even deeper into its mysterious mountains. Along the way, love, greed, murder, and mystery abound while the secrets of mankind and the ultimate answer to 'what happens now?' just might be answered.

The mysteries of Australia may just hold the answers mankind has been searching for millennium to find. When Doctor James Hay, a university scientist who studies the paranormal mysteries in Australia, finds an obelisk of carved volcanic rock on sacred Aboriginal land in northern Queensland, he realizes it may hold the answers he's been seeking. A respected elder of the Aboriginal people instructs James to take up the gauntlet and follow his heart. Along with his old friend and award-winning writer Spencer, Samantha Louis, her cameraman, and two of James' Aboriginal students, James embarks on a life-changing quest for the truth.

Out in the savanna with some mysteries.... lots of whawha which is fine but I thought the sinister disappearances of the people was the more interesting story than whatever spiritualism it was supposed to surround.

A truly enjoyable and surprisingly captivating trilogy
Having read and enjoyed many of Max’s novels, I decided to step outside my usual historical fiction comfort zone and try something completely different. Cryptozoology has never been a particular interest of mine, so I wasn’t sure whether this trilogy would grip me the way his other books have. To my surprise, it absolutely did.
The first book hooked me with its clever blend of science, mystery, and the unknown, and each instalment kept me guessing right up to the final page. Before I knew it, I was diving straight into the second and then the third book, eager to see where the story would lead. I never expected to enjoy a series featuring Neanderthals and mythical creatures as much as I did, but the way Max weaves these elements together makes the world feel both imaginative and strangely plausible.
It’s an entertaining, well written trilogy that sparks the imagination and leaves you wanting more.
