JESUS NOT ONLY GOD WHO ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN

Jesus was not the only god believed to have been resurrected and thereafter ascended into Heaven. One of those gods was Hercules.

Like Jesus, Hercules was the son of the god that ruled Heaven. Like Jesus, Hercules descended into Hades where he wounded Hades, the god of the underworld, whom we know as Satan.

After being cursed by an enemy, Hercules suffered from an inner fire. Thus tortured, he built his own funeral pyre and set himself on fire.

When the flames reached Hercules a cloud descended from Heaven and amidst thunder and lightning, the beautiful, young god disappeared to live with his Father in Heaven forever.

DESTINY'S DAMNED TRILOGY by SHAWNA RYAN

The DESTINY'S DAMNED Trilogy:
The Roman Empire used the early Christian Church to enslave the world. In this the 21st century, the empire’s descendants return to take the church back. The author weaves history, theology, and paganism into a searing thriller.

An investigative reporter lies witness as he is murdered piece by piece. He catches a glimpse of a headless man dressed in black, as a plate is hammered into his forehead. A nun is committed to an insane asylum and bites off the ear of a renegade priest hiding from the Church. Within the bowels of the Sequentia, a timeless subterranean prison, a child, her face blistered, her hair burned away, stares at the body of a woman thrown inside.

DESTINY'S DAMNED - BOOK 1

An investigative reporter lies witness as he is murdered piece by piece. He catches a glimpse of a headless man dressed in black, as a plate is hammered into his forehead. A mother’s captor gazes at her through a cream colored mask, at once revolted and aroused by her stench and bestiality. A teacher watches as a purple gloved hand holding a boning knife severs his index finger and uses its bloody stub to sign an oath. These three murders are only the beginning of the killer’s savage, calculating plan.
Meanwhile, the modern Christian church was created by a cruel and sadistic dictator to enslave the world. In this, the 21st century, his descendants want the Church back.

Reviews & Reader Comments

DESTINY'S DAMNED is in the searing genre that has made best seller lists and was forged by Dan Brown with his THE DA VINCI CODE. Ryan, a Pacific Northwest attorney, has conducted extensive research on mythology that predates Christianity...The novel has a kind of cinematic quality as the story unfolds, and the pacing is such, that readers will find the novel a quick page turner! -Patricia Harrington, mystery writer.

Great descriptive verse and a book that will keep me on edge until the next installment. Carroll A.

I kept racing ahead looking for the next clue. A fascinating read. Excellent first book, I can hardly wait for the next book in the series. BR

Finished at 2 a.m., standing since midnight, reading 'just one more page.' If you liked the Da Vinci Code, you're going to love this one. Beth

I haven't had that much fun reading since I don't know when. In fact, I found myself talking out loud to the characters! Marilyn R.

I find myself feeling what the victim is feeling. I am in awe! Jan E.

SATAN'S SCAT - BOOK 2

A nun is committed to an insane asylum and bites off the ear of a renegade priest hiding from the Church. She is not what everyone thinks she is. The nun secretly seeks to infiltrate the Sequentia, a timeless subterranean prison. Within the deep, abiding hell of the Sequentia, women sacrifice their own lives and those of their children to hide crucial information from the Church. She is convinced that the women in the Sequentia are protecting a document personally dictated by Christ which contains His last instructions to mankind. Should these women fail to keep the information safe, the modern world would be enslaved.

Reviews & Reader Comments

In Satan's Scat, the second book in Shawna Ryan's thriller trilogy, the author continues the page turner pace she established in Destiny's Damned....the chapters titled Sequentia throw the reader into a devil's cauldron with depictions that horrify and have a cinematic reality to them of the struggle between evil and good. Author Ryan, who is a practicing attorney, also has included an impressive appendix of the resources and research she conducted before embarking on the trilogy. Readers who enjoyed the Da Vinci Code also will find Satan's Scat a fascinating read.

Like the first book, it is fast paced, well researched and fascinating. Destiny's Damned is a dark, intellectual thriller and I am looking forward to reading the rest of the trilogy. E. Bennetts

I started it the other night about 10 pm. & then had to stay up 1/2 the night to finish it! Great book; very dark...L. Barber

TRIUMVIRATE OF THE DAMNED - BOOK 3

Within the bowels of the Sequentia, a timeless subterranean prison, a child, her face blistered, her hair burned away, stares at the body of a woman thrown inside. Sacrificing their lives, the women and the children in the Sequentia are hiding from the Church a document personally dictated by Christ which contains His last instructions to mankind. The woman is half-naked. Her hands are tied. Dried blood is crusted beneath her nose and in her short, blond hair. Bruised and battered, she is the first new inmate imprisoned in the Sequentia for hundreds of years. With her and in her wake, comes the force that would steal Christ’s document and enslave the modern world.

To be released in the Fall 2009.
