I was once a Sadhu, that which they refer to in the East as a 'mystic.' I was sitting on the threshold of moksha spiritual liberation - or enlightenment as it's called - But I'm not one anymore. Why? Because I lusted after something else; something just as primal and ubiquitous. It's called 'revenge.'

From legendary creator Grant Morrison (All-Star Superman, Batman & Robin, The Invisibles), comes the first chapter in his newest creation. 18 Days is the story of three generations of super-warriors, meeting for the final battle of their age, a climactic war that concludes the age of the gods and begins the age of man. "This is not a Lord of the Rings or a Star Wars where the good guys win because they are right. The good guys in 18 Days are forced to cheat and lie and break rules to win. Although it has fantastic, mythic trappings, this is a very modern story of realpolitik and the failure of ideals in the face of harsh truth." ¨C Grant Morrison

Set in ancient India just after Alexander the Great's invasion, this novel takes the reader through the spiritual journey of two seekers. Kautilya, the first seeker, is a Vedic scholar very close to finding the Truth. However, his life takes an unexpected detour, and ends up building the Mauryan Empire. Although successful in re-establishing dharmic value in the Indian subcontinent and getting rid of the vestiges of Alexander's invasion, he continues to have inner struggles about the path he has chosen. Manu, the other seeker, is an elite warrior in the Mauryan Army but ends up becoming a seeker of Truth at a young age. Disappointed in love, he tries to find answers to his spiritual questions first as a Buddhist monk and later as a Sadhu. In this story, the author takes the reader the intriguing journey of the two seekers as they finally overcome Maya to reach Moksha (emancipation), but was it the path specified by The Enlightened One or was it God Himself? This is a novel about Empire building and God Consciousness with a love story intertwined between the two. REVIEW "This is a fascinating story set in ancient India, conveying timeless truths that speak to readers from all cultures of our twenty-first century world. A delightful read indeed! All in all, this is an excellent, moving, and religiously inspiring work that deserves wide readership." --Ruben L.F. Habito, Professor of World Religions and Spirituality, Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas. "This book takes the reader on an epic spiritual journey while weaving together several of the major religious traditions of India. The novel presents a compelling tale of vivid characters interacting across both time and geography. Set in Ancient India, the novel combines all of the requisites of good story-telling: adventure, romance, and a variety of lessons for achieving a happier existence. The book is accessible to readers of all levels and serves as a lively cultural introduction to South Asia. A delight for the reader who is seeking something both different and substantive." --Robert C. Wigton, J.D., Ph.D., Professor of Political Science, Eckard College, St. Petersburg, Florida

The first insider account of an ancient and secretive tradition • By the first foreigner to become a member, and later an elder, of the Juna Akhara, the oldest and largest grouping of Naga Babas • Filled with true accounts of magic, miracles, ghosts, and austerities • With lessons on Hindu gods, ayurveda, and Indian culture woven throughout After traveling at age 18 from his native California to India in 1969, Rampuri was drawn to the Naga Babas, an ancient and wild order of naked yogis whom he calls the “Hell’s Angels of Indian Spirituality.” Organized into a sect by Adi Shankara in the 5th century BC, the Naga Babas see themselves as the ultimate protectors of the Sanatan Dharma, or what we call the Hindu religion. Rampuri became a disciple of a Naga Baba--a master shaman sadhu--from Rajasthan and, as foretold by astrological prophecy, soon found himself the first foreigner to become an initiate of the Juna Akhara, the oldest and largest grouping of Naga Babas with more than 50,000 sadhu members. From drinking the “Nectar of Immortality” at the source of the Ganges River to allegations of tantric murder, this autobiography is filled with true accounts of magic, miracles, ghosts, and austerities, with lessons on Hindu gods, ayurveda, mantra, and Indian culture woven throughout. Through his journey of extremes, Rampuri takes us into the mystic heart of India.
