Twelve-year-old Hans Thomas lives alone with his father, a man who likes to give his son lessons about life and has a penchant for philosophy. Hans Thomas' mother left when he was four (to `find' herself) and the story begins when father and son set off on a trip to Greece, where she now lives, to try to persuade her to come home. En route, in Switzerland, Hans Thomas is given a magnifying glass by a dwarf at a petrol station, and the next day he finds a tiny book in his bread roll which can only be read with a magnifying glass. How did the book come to be there? Why does the dwarf keep showing up? It is all very perplexing and Hans Thomas has enough to cope with, with the daunting prospect of seeing his mother. Now his journey has turned into an encounter with the unfathomable...or does it all have a logical explanation?

Wie waren de Maya's, het geheimzinnige volk wiens verwoeste tempels met hun wonderlijke inscripties diep in de regenwouden van Centraal-Amerika geleerden al eeuwenlang hebben verbijsterd? Waar kwamen ze vandaan en waarom zijn ze zo plotseling verdwenen? Hoe werkt hun getallenstelsel en wat houden de voorspellingen van de beroemde 'Maya-kalender' in? Wat vertellen ons de inscripties van de pas in 1952 ontdekte sarcofaagdeksel van Palenque? DE VOORSPELLINGEN VAN DE MAYA'S ONTSLUIERD geeft antwoord op deze en op nog vele andere vragen. De Maya's onthullen ons dat er onvermijdelijke veranderingen op handen zijn - onze aarde zal worden geteisterd door enorme catastrofes. Wij staan op de drempel van een nieuw tijdperk.
