The 8th Mayan Prophecy

by Robert G. Peterson

Dec. 21, 2012, marked the end of the Mayan Long Count Calendar. Some believed it also signaled the end of the world. However, Nick Jensen, a nerdy but adventurous teenager, soon learns the incredible true story behind the ancient Mayan prophecies. On his 13th birthday he wakes to find his world has changed. He is inexplicably able to see into the near future. And when the beautiful girl from down the street falls through the ice of the neighborhood pond under suspicious circumstances, he morphs from his human form into a water mammal and saves her. Nick and the girl, Grace, become fast friends over their many shared interests, especially Grace's Mayan heritage. Spurred by Nick's ability to translate one of Grace's Mayan tablets, Nick, Grace and Nick's best friend, AJ, embark on a quest to uncover the reasons behind his mysterious, newfound powers. Their journey takes them from Wisconsin to the ancient Mayan World and the Sacred World Tree -- the gateway that leads them to Minoan Crete, the First Civilization and a race of giants who roamed the world spreading their advanced technology to distant lands such as Scandinavia, China, the Mediterranean and Mesoamerica. The teenagers discover that seven Mayan prophecies have already come to pass. As they gradually unravel the 8th Mayan prophecy, they realize their survival depends on their ability to comprehend its meaning. The World Council-and its ruthless leader, the Tepal, who has studied the Mayan prophecies for decades-has been eagerly awaiting the date when the new prophecy will begin to unfold. The Tepal believes he alone has unlocked the secret of the new prophecy, and sends his henchman to shadow Nick to determine if the teen is the one spoken of in The 8th Mayan Prophecy. Or does it speak of another?
