Produktbeschreibung
A fusion of modern adventure and a daring quest for priceless relics that span the millennia. In the mists of history, a man builds a mammoth wooden structure, an ark. He collects every kind of animal, herds them into the ark, and carefully notes each species in his care on a dozen gold-plated tablets. After the rains come and then recede, the tablets are scattered and only three survive. Many have been drawn into a desperate pursuit of evidence that would prove the existence of this man's grand ship--often to their own peril. But no proof has ever been found--until now. This epic tale traces remnants of these legendary tablets through centuries and across continents to modern times, where a talented American archaeologist, Arianna, dreams of exploring the cave cities of her grandmother's home in Cappadocia, Turkey. While excavating those caves Arianna learns more about life and death than she could ever have expected. For Arianna, the search for the tablets brings new spiritual discoveries and a romantic awakening, and places her on a collision course with men who will stop at nothing to exploit her . . . and the tablets. "Readers of all ages will be captivated by this extraordinary first novel by C. J. Illinick." --Dr. Gloria Randle Professor of English, Michigan State University and book critic C. J. Illinik lives in a scenic town nestled into the foothills of the Oregon cascades. The author has traveled the world, visiting or living in every place showcased in The Tablets of Nuh. As a retired college art instructor, C. J. still finds time to draw, paint, and dabble in photography.
