    Godyssey| Lianne Arends GODYSSEY HOME More Naran Stalwart is a young, introverted scientist who lives on logic and breathes facts. She has a promising career working in a laboratory. When a young scientist discovers the Ancient Mystery Teachings... The world changes forever Home Book 1 Read Chapter 1 A Hallucinogenic Book Series GODYSSEY Naran is confronted with unexpected lessons around her deepest desires and fears. Her rational plans and her perception of who she thought she was are thrown into a tailspin. Guided by Kai, the charismatic Didelian man who is assigned to be her mentor, Naran uncovers perennial wisdom from ancient times, visits the Didelian Tree of Life, and learns that human history is not what she thought it was. Meanwhile, it dawns on her that the stakes of completing her training are much higher than she could ever have imagined. When Naran discovers that the Didelian invitation is rooted in secrets withheld from her by her family, she has no other choice than to accept the apprenticeship. And the moment she does... The Didelians surfaced after the Second World War. Nobody knows who they are or where they came from, but one thing is clear: they are not like other humans. They travel around the globe with a massive stone arena in which they perform magical shows, and for which the tickets are sold in a raffle. Imagine Naran's surprise when she's invited by the Didelians, a mysterious and secretive culture, to be their apprentice. The Didelians don't communicate with anyone outside their camp. Yet suddenly, they seem intent on teaching Naran about their ancient magic practices. The only problem is.... Naran, a rational scientist, doesn't believe in magic. At night, she lounges on her sofa with her dog Luna and watches Netflix series. Her life is comfortable and predictable. Just how she likes it. The young scientist enters an unpredictable and exhilarating existence full of surreal magic that transports her outside the realm of human possibilities. While Naran struggles to understand if she’s losing or actually finding herself, her captivating and distracting relationship with Kai complicates the situation. And so does Idum, Kai's ex-partner.

I was going to write a fiction series about the initiation of a modern woman into ancient mystery teachings. Little did I know that I had to wait eight more years to start the process. Until then, I studied French literature at the Sorbonne IV in Paris, creative writing at Boston College, and political science at the University of Amsterdam. In 2012, when the story finally started to flow, I instantly gave up my marketing position in Silicon Valley and moved into a self-built campervan. I desired to visit the locations where the books would take place in the USA and Europe. This crazy journey gave me lots of time to write and study Kabbalah, The Knights Templar, Ancient Greek and Hebrew, the Quadrivium (Plato), Egyptian mysteries, Norse mythology, and plant medicine. Topics I wilfully weaved into my speculative fiction series: GODYSSEY The series has become one Wild, Magic-Realistic, Action-Packed, World-Breaking, Perspective Shifting, Boundry Crossing, and Halluconegenic Grail-Quest.
