Brother Stewart sets out to prove that ancient civilization has an important role to play in the overall mythology and history of Freemasonry.

As such, he also touches on Pythagoras and discusses the Neoplatonists at length.

School is out and Jimmy is finally free. In book two of the three-part All Saints series, we find our young hero flipping burgers in a grease joint. But for all the cow guts and blow flies, life has never been sweeter. He's in a band, meeting girls, and generally doing everything he can to abuse the freedoms of adulthood, without being encumbered by its responsibilities. Of course, every story needs a bad guy.

Adulthood glitters on a distant horizon, beyond the bored gazes of distracted parents and teachers, and the blood, dust, and taunts of the playground. But perhaps freedom isn't out of reach, after all. When Jimmy changes schools, he encounters a pack of boys who seem to be everything he isn't; strong, fearless, and just as untouchable as the adults in their exclusive mystical universe. More than anything, Jimmy longs to belong.

Life is short. Jimmy's life may prove shorter. His gang mates have grown up and shipped out, and the nine to five is grinding Jimmy into a person he no longer recognizes. There has to be more to existence than waking up every Saturday with a half-eaten kebab and empty wallet. The wide blue skies of America sing a siren's song, and Jimmy decides he's ready to give life a do-over - even if it means leaving his childhood sweetheart Kelly behind.
