Johannes Cabal and his rather inexact powers of necromancy are back once more. This time, his talents are purchased by The Fear Institute as they hunt for the Phobic Animus - the embodiment of fear.

The intrepid explorers are killed off one by one as they traipse through this obfuscating and frustrating world, where history itself appears to alter.

That is, if Johannes Cabal is on your side...The mysteries of past and future--science fiction and the occult, Jules Verne and Robert Anton Wilson--are all wrapped up in Jonathan L. Howard's fast-paced escapade of esoteric adventure." -- Katherine Neville, "New York Times" bestselling author of
