Change is coming!
As the date of December 21, 2012 approaches nearer and nearer, more and more attention is being given to its prophetic implications which first began with the revelations of Mayan phrophecies associating it with the end of the Mayan calendar, and then reinforced as being of metaphysical importance by Hopi and Nostradamus prophecy, and even webot-based internet calculations. In “2012 Maya End Date: A New Beginning,” author Edward Curry applies the prophetic 2012 end of the world as we know it metaphysical expectations to an imaginative action/adventure novel featuring such memorable and returning characters of Chief Ahau, first wife Elena, as well as their daughter Constanza, helio plane pilots Rick and Greg, a TV anchor, a Mayan fortune teller, and an ancient Maya spiritual leader. The sequel to “Temple of the Two Jaguars,” his latest 368-page novel, “2012 Maya End Date,” once again documents Edward Curry’s gift for superb storytelling backed up and enhanced by dedicated research to provide an extraordinary context for a truly phenomenal entertainment that leaves his appreciative readers looking forward to his next literary effort. Highly recommended reading — especially for those with an interest in the developing prominence of the 2012 prophecies.

This is Edward Curry’s second novel with the ancient Maya civilization at the heart of the plot. He takes us into the very heart of Mesoamerica and spins his yarn like a spider web ensnaring the reader. 2012 Maya End Date once again features the fortunes and challenges of Ryan Keshaw and Dr. Allie Lea Shelton. Maya Chief Ahau and his wife Elena are also prominent in the story.
Ryan has an uncanny ability to see trouble looming ahead. Is it just his fertile imagination at work? As the days draw closer to 2012, so do the intensity of his dreams. It is with some trepidation that Ryan and Allie Lea are invited as special guests of the Mexican government to once more venture back to the Temple of the Two Jaguars, as it is a hardly a place that brings back fond memories.
What I found interesting is that Ed Curry does not use villains in his plot. Sure, there are occasional bandidos, but they are really peripheral characters. Rather, he uses psychological warfare on the reader. I will not give any spoilers in this review, but I will say that 2012 Maya End Date is a book that hurtles you along faster than a Japanese bullet train.

Edward Curry has written a page turner in his 2012 Maya End Date: A New Beginning. The book continues the adventures of spunky archaeologist Allie Lea Shelton and her laid-back counterpart Ryan Keshaw. Their young daughter now along for the ride, as they battle bandidos, over-eager media, and actual and metaphorical rising tides.
Curry has a distinctive voice in this sequel to the Temple of the Two Jaguars. He interweaves down home and high tech as his protagonists make their second journey through the history and geography of the ancient Mesoamerican people.
The cast is fairly extensive, yet Curry manages skillful characterization. those in the leading roles are both recognizable and likeable. The interpersonal dynamics of the couple ring true.
It is obvious that considerable research went into the writing of this book, It is well worth reading for a look at the past, present and future of the Maya civilization.

Have just finished "2012 Maya End Date" and I'm astonished at the scope of
your work. You amazingly combined meticulous research with intuitive
insight and courageously (or even recklessly?) proposed a scenario of the
future. Gutsy!! And, what a fun read!
