Puritan Ruins

About the Book

Time is the battleground for two dying martyrs-one creating history, the other erasing it-in Puritan Ruins, an apocalyptic romance blending medieval religious fable, Mesoamerican myth, and 16th century New World History.

A nameless wanderer travels backwards in time to stamp his identity on history, starting with the conquest of the New World. Parallel to the wanderer's story, a museum-keeper of the far future discovers a way to end the legacy of this history forever.
