disgusted me, filled me of existential emptiness”.
During h is adolescence, he is reveled as an i ntelligent b ut confli ctive student. He prog ressively discovers relationsh ips and
what a mediocre life means. But Tommaso feels that hi s learning needs an escape and decides to move. His purpose i s to

Synopsis
At the turn of the last mi llennium, a series of st range events led to the abandonment by the Maya people of cities and
temples along a wide stretch of land in the a rea of what is now the state of Chiapas in Mexico. Recent research leads us to
believe that this phenomenon had much to do with the fall of a meteorite that raised a deadly cloud of toxic gas which
affected the area and its population with radioactive emissions lasting several centuries.
The U.S. military, following the tracks of a group of g rave robbers and the advice of an uns crupulous archaeologist named
Markus Sander, is determined to find the meteorite and exploit its rare radioactive qualities within its new defense program.
The members of the “Black Seed” commando have the mission of finding the meteorite with the help of huge military
means, ruthlessly eliminat ing all outside i nterference, leaving along the way the corpses of judges, doctors and witnesses.
But the U.S. military are not the only ones seeking the sanctuary.
The fate of humanity depends on the controversial legacy of the ancient Maya people being shared by all nations and not
monopolized by one of them, such is the power lying in the nuclear core of the meteorite.
The moment of truth is approaching and the future of humanity depends on a group of committed men and women of good
will. Will they be able to outmanoeuvre the powerfull American military-industrial complex?

Synopsis
The Basque Country is one of the riches t regions in E urope, with 2 million people who defend their language
and own culture. Behind a calm weather and georgous landscapes , there is a dramatic reality: since the last
30 years 200 000 citizens have left the territory fearing terroris m, scaping from extortion, s ocial isolation and
nationalistic impos itions .
This book shows a barely known reality, the conflict of a nation and the different political and s ocial points of
views of a same land.

what is terrorism?
Why does it exist?
Are terrorists unhuman or insane?
Is there any relation between terroris m and totalitaris m?
Can we negociate with terrorists?
What can we do?
O ne of the conclusions is that terrorism appeared in the XIX century with nihilism and anarchism, extrem
nationalism and the revolutionary marxism.
In the XX century it was considered as a “science” thanks to marxism- leninis m.
And finally, in the XXI century, with the globalization, it has taken an universal dimension, with O sama Bin
Laden, yihadis m and other terroris t groups that will accompain us for a long term.
