About this title

Synopsis

Today s world leaders and those of 1,000 years ago face the world s end. The Mayan End-Time Codex predicts the end of the world in 2012. A young Aztec-Mayan slave tells the story of its creation: gifted in math and astronomy, Coyotl advises the god-king, Quetzalcoatl. Gathering artists, scientists, and architects, this ruler builds the great, golden city of Tula but soon faces war, disastrous drought, death-cult priests who rip the hearts out of thousands of people. . . and an epic catastrophe threatening all humanity.Meanwhile, thousand years later, scientists have rediscovered the End-Time Codex and learned that their own time mirrors Tula s golden age. Can they crack the 2012 code and save their world from Tula s deadly fate? The countdown begins.

Born in Buena Vista, Virginia in 1928, Jennings passed away in 1999 in Pompton Lakes, New Jersey, leaving behind a rich legacy of historical fiction and outlines for new novels.
