Book details
Overview
Unravel the Past. Face the Truth. Escape the Illusion.
After the events of The Qaraq, passionate Arabic scholar Sahara Fleming embraces the truth: she and her qaraq, a group of intertwined souls, have lived countless past lives together. But now, their gift of extraordinary memory is slipping away. A force known as the Maya Factor—a Hindu concept that traps people in illusion and trivial distractions — shatters the qaraq's ability to recall their shared reincarnations.
As their connection weakens, Sahara faces another unsettling challenge: her estranged husband's relentless attempts to win her back. Their chemistry is undeniable, yet their past-life stories hint at something far darker beneath their romance.
When the qaraq uncovers eerie links between ancient tombs, a mysterious Red Isle, and a seventeenth-century coven, they must ask themselves: Are they unraveling a grand design that has shaped their lives for centuries? Or are they merely trapped in another layer of Maya — an illusion that could tear them apart?
Description
Structured like a modern Arabian Nights, The Qaraq and the Maya Factor—Book Two of 1001, The Reincarnation Chronicles—delivers a visionary blend of inventive fantasy, historical mystery, and whimsical mysticism. Step into this wildly imaginative series by Stephen Weinstock, whose own musical past life helps shape this symphonic epic.
PRAISE FOR 1001, THE REINCARNATION CHRONICLES
"Stephen Weinstock's imagination is fevered, surreal, fantastical. It will take you places you never dreamed you would go."
Barry Jay Kaplan, author, Black Orchid
"Whether you believe in reincarnation or not, this is a book that will expand your universe."
Donald Kroitsch, publisher
"How do you hold it all in one thought, one impression? You don't. You read every one of the 616 pages then sit back and bask in a satisfied feeling of having lived through an unpredictable, bewitching journey ... through millennia, into outer space, transported and transfixed: it is an experience of huge proportion."
Sarah Berges, editor and choreographer, Sarah Berges Dance
"The kind of book that keeps you up later than you intended at night."
Brendan Pulver, Artist
"In this volume, the characters have lived in many forms, including a lovesick mermaid, frolicking dogs, and a horny glacier."
Robin Gregory, The Improbable Wonders of Moojie Littleman
