This is the first of two books published together in one volume entitled '... And So the Snake Spoke'. It is a thrilling adventure story that also gives us exciting insights into some well-known puzzles. Chad, a research geologist and amateur Egyptologist from Boston University, is on his way via Egypt to visit his astrophysicist brother Tom, in Sydney, for his 50th birthday celebration. Within hours of arriving in Cairo, Chad is confronted with evidence, which may challenge everything we ever knew about the ancient Egyptians, and the claim that they built the pyramids. From Chad's perspective as a geologist, and his brother's as an astrophysicist, it becomes uncomfortably clear that the official narrative on Earth's history must be wrong.The author is an astrophysicist, who has lived and worked internationally. The Wolf Cataclysm is a highly original fictional story, which weaves a colourful tapestry, linking some of the World's greatest unexplained mysteries to lead to a most obvious conclusion. Extremely controversial in its suggestion, the reader is left with a shocking insight into an alternative Earth history, a revelation from which it may be difficult to escape. From the author's preface: "We all want to know what happens in the end. Why were the pyramids built? What do they represent? Why is the World covered in dolmens, stone circles, and other complex megalithic structures and hundreds of similar friezes of ancient geometrical cave art? If you have been trying to build a time machine to find out, you can stop. This book saves you the trouble. - I only hope you are brave enough to face the harsh reality and consequences of your desire to know the truth."
