Altar of Shulaani

Mike has a talent for falling into trouble. This time, he's fallen through time itself.

One moment he's helping his archaeologist father survey ancient ruins in the desert. The next, he's tumbling through a mysterious altar and landing in a lost civilisation—thousands of years in the past.

Surrounded by chanting priests, deadly sacrifices, and a city gripped by plague, Mike rescues a strange girl from the altar. Alinea isn't from this world—or this time. She's an alien, stranded on Earth, and her parents are dying.

Now Mike must navigate a hostile ancient city, evade terrifying creatures called the Kloog, and find a way back to his own time—before it's too late for everyone.

With a telepathic companion, a loyal beast called Beeper, and time running out, Mike discovers that the altar holds more secrets than anyone imagined. Some doors open both ways. And some lead to places no one has ever returned from.

A pulse-pounding time-travel adventure for readers who love ancient mysteries, alien encounters, and heroes who never give up.
