The Hole in the Magic Shield

In 41 hours, the world as we know it will end…

Like it has done every twenty-six millennia, the magnetic field of the earth is about to be short-circuited by a series of massive solar storms, which will destroy our modern technological society virtually overnight. It will take the planet two centuries before the natural protective magnetic field will build back up to full strength. While it is weakened, the surface of the earth will be scorched by the sun and daylight will become dangerous to all life. The first wave of storms and destruction has already begun, but the only people who have the means to help, aren’t aware of the impending disaster. And the only clue to when the disaster will occur is a mysterious clear rock locked in a black plastic case. New characters and fresh dangers arrive building the mystery and intrigue; all while the deadline approaches and the world unknowingly counts down to its doom.

THE HOLE IN THE MAGIC SHIELD continues with the unforgettable story and extraordinary characters from THE GOD IN THE CLEAR ROCK. Filled with more epic adventure, mystery, high-tech, science, and intrigue than the first fast-paced thriller, the story starts exactly where the last one stopped. Over the following 9 hours, out of only 41 hours left in the world, intertwined wheels of action and new people are set in motion. THE HOLE IN THE MAGIC SHIELD blends the counting-by-hour style of the TV drama ‘24’ with the intensely complex, larger-than-life characters and adventure driven plots of Clive Cussler in a page-turner that’s guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat. As the intricate story begins to twist and turn, fans will relish the cliffhanger maddening mystery and be left scrambling to pick up book three.
