The Desert of Glass

By: Michael C. Grumley

Narrated by: Scott Brick

One of mankind's greatest secrets...has been hiding in plain sight for 3,000 years.

Half a century ago, an aberration was spotted by one of our earliest satellites, and summarily dismissed as a hardware malfunction. But it was no aberration. And no malfunction. It was an accidental glimpse of something extraordinary, and very old.

Mocked for decades, the man who designed the satellite is now dead. With the system's original data firmly in the hands of former NTSB investigator Joe Rickards and anthropologist Angela Reed.

But the data is only to be shared with one other person besides them: a seventy-five-year-old NASA engineer who was part of the original program.

Joe Rickards is convinced it will lead mankind into darkness.

Angela believes it may be the answer the modern world has been longing for.

And former NASA engineer Leonard Townsend hasn't the slightest idea what he's about to get involved in.

To make matters worse, through a strange bedside confession, a journalist thousands of miles away has just learned that someone else already knows about the satellite's 50-year-old discovery.

Because they've been secretly using it for years.

Another great offering by Michael Grumley

Wonderful mix of science and sci-fi by Michael. I always enjoy his fantasy and cutting edge science combination as well as the bonds between his main characters. A great sequel to The Last Monument. Love all the globe-trotting in his novels. Takes me to a web browser to look up
the locations for a good visualization of the locales. Scott Brick delivers his consistently engaging narration.

A great book very entertaining

I enjoyed this book immensely, I use audible books during my long drives from job to job out here in Western Colorado, this guy is a great author and with Scott Brick reading it, it brings it completely to life, sometime I wonder how I got to my destination.

great!

I did not know this was book 2 in a series since Audible did not have it listed that way. Wish I would have listened to 'The Last Monument' first. This does work fine as a stand alone thankfully. Awesome story and great narration!

So Intriguing!!

I really love these books and the thought provoking concepts. Can’t wait to read the next book!

A very fun and exciting adventure

Loved it. It had action excitement and heart. My first review but this book was just so much fun.
