By: Alan Joshua Science kicks opens the door for humans to reach God-like powers of creation and destruction. A secret Russian mind research laboratory erupts, annihilating thousands and leaving a monstrous, one-mile deep crater in its wake.

What seems at first to be an ordinary scientific investigation leads Walker and the research team into alternate realities and the extraordinary. Walker struggles against political and military deceptions, deadly superhuman adversaries, and personal demons to unlock the riddle of the SHIVA syndrome, risking his life for the very existence of humankind. The SHIVA Syndrome offers a dizzying ride into extraordinary human abilities. Prepare to alter what you believed was reality. The Midwest Book Review "At first glance one would think this to be either a sci-fi saga or perhaps a thriller: technically, that's correct; but it's so much more. Its focus on untapped human potential gone awry in a deadly experiment also lends to its enjoyment by new age readers or any interested in the paranormal - and let's not forget the reader who enjoys political intrigue and a bit of spiritual reflection in their reading. Lots of action, intriguing concepts, and examinations of belief systems and the greatest opportunity in human history to reshape the world…Highly recommended.” The New Consciousness Review: “The SHIVA Syndrome is a thrilling read...The author is skilled at putting the pictures in your head without confusion...Would love to see a part two! Highly recommended." Laura E. Mirian, Ph.D. The book is a wonderful blend of scientific intrigue, science fiction, military mayhem, psychic phenomena, and anthropological adventure. The author spun a fantastic tale with a great group of characters...The Prologue sets the stage for an auspicious adventure that gets “curiouser and curiouser.” Sci Fi Book Reviews: Allen Stroud, Here we have a crafted science fiction thriller, full of detail that defines its scientific plateau…Joshua ‘shows his working’ in a way Asimov might have been proud of, bringing this plethora of scientists around a table to discuss the intriguing science and pseudoscience of the novel. The vision is enthralling, building a fantastical concept from a multi-faceted discussion of the world’s experts as they travel by plane to Russia to investigate the [disaster] site.
