Coup D'État in the Land of Zep Tepi (eBook, ePUB)

A Progress Report

Beschreibung

If you have ever wondered where the human obsession with the apocalypse comes from, if you ever wanted to know why the world did not come to an end on December 21, 2012, as prophesied by the Mayan calendar and propagated by paranoid apocalyptomaniacs, then Coup dtat in the Land of Zep Tepi: A Progress Report is for you. But why? In an action-packed volume 1, the most controversial discovery to jump from the midst of mythological time into the twenty-first century exposes information concerning goings-on in ancient Egypt around 1450 BC. Volume 2 of Coup dtat in the Land of Zep Tepi: A Progress Report picks up narrative threads of the ongoing search for clues as to how and why the Bachwezi staged an outfiltration to off-worldly realms. This edition of the report traces the outlines of even more shocking revelations unearthed, of all places, in Darfur. The search for a lost Story Hunter takes on new and increasingly surreal dimensions when one-legged angels start dropping in from the thin blue Darfuri desert sky. Nevertheless, volume 2 forges ahead with Buiteboers original plan, which is to complete the report in the eye-span of one night. Immersed in hotly contested historical and geographical space, the completion of the hunt for Story Hunter jumps from Darfur to Khartoum in an unlikely night ride that takes the report into the thick of off-worldly goings-on and beyond the vertigo-filled zones occupied by the waghdas in volume 1. Will Story Hunter be extracted back to earth from the off-worldly realms? Will Giovanni Neros search be met by success, or are they bound to disappear into the murky netherworlds, where pitched battles are being fought for control over territory in the fields of myth? In these pages, we will learn that the ancient gods of Egypt are reaching across space and vast regions of time to stay the hand of the ticking time bomb lodged in the Mayan calendars codes. Will the report come up with a plausible explanation for the world not coming to an end on December 21, 2012?

Autor

Buiteboer likes to describe himself in many different ways. Sometimes he is an outfiltration technician-meaning he finds ways of dislocating consciousness from the here and organic now of planet earth. The goal is to outfiltrate into intangible spirit or other imaginary off-worldly realms. Alternatively, he is known to say that one has to move through this planet without allowing any of the shit to stick to you on the way out. Like a proverbial Teflon man (the one to whom nothing sticks) Buiteboer can therefore at best be introduced as someone who hails from a country at the top of the world (that is, if you turn the world map upside down to have the south face the north and vice versa)-South Africa. As a result of being born at the top of the world, he is a lifelong explorer of both the physical and nonphysical realities that envelop the senses. As a curious cat among the pigeons, Buiteboer's name itself, if unpacked in his native tongue, Afrikaans, already tells a story of its own. Buite means "outside," and Boer is basically referring to the ethnic name attached to a white settler tribe that fought two brutal wars of independence against the British Empire in the late 1800s. He is a Boer from the outside, always exploring in places where the mist of myth overlaps with terra firma-and incognita. Buiteboer can therefore best be described in words from Led Zeppelin's song "Kashmir": I'm a traveler of all kinds of space.
