Millennium's Gate: The Shadow of Giants is the first book of a trilogy that spans two hundred years. One man, taught from infancy, the proper philosophical operating system and motivation for living, knew that is the only way mankind will learn to live and survive the future. His mother indelibly impressed in his character, "Never allow anyone's irrelevant opinion of you to form your self-image. An honest, genuine self-image can only come from within by mastery through achievement." This he had to teach the world, but the powers who ran the world must stop him at all costs. If Iggy Marcus is successful, the world will be transformed and the old elitist power structure will be swept away, to be replaced by the power of the individual. The battle is epic and humanity's survival hangs in the balance.
