Reviews
"2012: The Fifth World is the kind of novel that demands it be read in one sitting. Mixing ancient civilizations with modern thrills and world changing events, this is a story that never slows and pulls no punches. Talbot is a rising star worth following."
-JEREMY ROBINSON, author of Instinct and Threshold
"2012: The Fifth World shows what happens when myth, faith, and science collide. The result is a gripping page-turner that doesn't let up until the very world is pushed to the brink of destruction."
-MICHAEL WALLACE, top 20 Amazon bestselling author of The Righteous.
"Edward G. Talbot expertly blends ancient mystery with modern thriller. The end result is a book you won't be able to put down until you've turned the final page!"

Product Description
Sometimes, the end of the world needs a little help.
Simon Gray stopped fighting years ago when he left the Army, but the CIA has made him an offer he can't refuse: the opportunity to take down Guatemalan arms dealer Yum Cimil. Cimil considers himself Maya royalty, and is planning worldwide destruction to usher in the Maya Fifth World on December 21, 2012.
Simon knows all too well the damage Cimil is capable of. This time, it's stolen nukes and a presidential kidnapping. Decades earlier, it was more . . .personal. Now he'll get his chance for revenge, but stopping Cimil won't be enough. Homo sapiens isn't the only hominid with skin in this game, and Simon must prevent an attack that threatens the very existence of the human race.
