King's College Geologist Explores Russian Disaster Crater---in New Paranormal Thriller

Debut Author/Psychologist Alan Joshua releases "The SHIVA Syndrome." "The book mixes uncommon palettes and manages a masterpiece with it...A surprising, suspenseful, and utterly superb read." Self-Publishing Review
 
LONDON - Aug. 24, 2015 - PRLog -- Power from our past; danger in our future. Science kicks opens the door for humans to reach god-like powers of creation and destruction.

A secret Russian mind research laboratory erupts, vaporizing thousands and leaving a monstrous, mile-deep crater in its wake. Beau Walker, psychologist and reluctant empath, is forced to join a research project, code-named SHIVA, to investigate the catastrophe. What seems at first to be an ordinary scientific investigation quickly leads Walker and the research team into supernatural encounters and realities beyond the known.

Walker struggles against political and military deceptions, deadly superhuman adversaries, and personal demons. He and an international research team risk their lives to unlock the mystery of the SHIVA syndrome and save humanity's existence.

The SHIVA Syndrome offers a dizzying ride into extraordinary human abilities. Prepare to re-evaluate what you believed was reality.

Dr. Stanley Krippner, an internationally known psychologist, parapsychologist and author strongly endorses Alan Joshua's The SHIVA Syndrome.
"The author (a clinical psychologist) skillfully and ingeniously interweaves altered states of consciousness and parapsychology with genetics, paleontology, mythology, and religion to produce a frightening, brisk, and film-worthy story building to an intense climax. The story challenges conventional notions of reality, concluding that human consciousness extends well beyond the flesh–and offers enormous potential for creation and destruction."

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...Highly recommended."

Laura E. Mirian, Ph.D. Transpersonal Psychologist
“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.”

Sci Fi Book Reviews, Allen Stroud, University Lecturer, High Wycombe,Buckinghamshire, UK
“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.”
