But there are those who don’t trust their motives—or their stated promise to improve the human race. Are the Semyaz altruistic benefactors, or do they represent the ultimate enslavement—or even eradication—of humanity as we know it?
The youthful and reckless Laméch is ripped from his comfortable city life and thrust into a centuries-old resistance where he discovers the true nature of the Semyaz and their multi-generational designs on humanity.
Numerous clandestine operations bring him face to face with their secret research facilities, his long-absent grandfather—and a beautiful dark-haired prisoner who teaches him the true meaning of love and sacrifice.
Laméch learns a new kind of warfare that entails trusting the plan established by his grandfather—even though it seems destined to grant the Semyaz certain victory.
About The Days of Laméch:
The Days of Laméch is the long-anticipated prequel to the award-winning The Days of Peleg, delving into the mysteries of the ancient Family Wars and drawing back the curtain on an age of antediluvian enlightenment—and ultimate devastation.
"A tasty new dish with plenty of action; An entertaining story of rebellion, seeded with sinister plots. Saboe makes it all fit seamlessly."
Mike Gray
"Saboe has done his homework. [A] compulsively readable novel. As in Peleg, when it comes to depicting 'action', Saboe excels. Reading Laméch put me in mind of James Bond and the Mission: Impossible team as often as it did of C. S. Lewis. Rushes headlong into a confrontation with pure evil!"
"An amazing tale of earth's early inhabitants…. Entertaining and thought provoking…. Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down!"
