{"product_id":"black-v-w-the-cycle-of-the-serpent-9781067400811","title":"The Cycle of the Serpent","description":"Eight eras. Eight failures. One correction. From the frozen steppes of 10,000 BCE to the glass towers of 2026, humanity has always faced the same test: When the resources run low, do we share, or do we hoard? And eight times, we have failed. In The Cycle of the Serpent, V.W. Black weaves a terrifying and beautiful tapestry of human history, revealing the secret mechanism that governs our rise and fall. In every age, when greed and cruelty reach a breaking point, an Entity awakes. It is not a god. It is not a demon. It is the immune system of the planet. It chooses a vessel-a grandmother in the Ice Age , a slave in Pompeii , a soldier in Stalingrad , a CEO in the future -and marks them with a scar in the shape of an Infinity Loop. Through their eyes, we witness the moments when civilization breaks:The Great Sleep: A shaman freezes the world to stop a tribe from eating its future. The Obsidian Heart: A slave girl in Pompeii triggers Vesuvius to end the gluttony of the Empire. The Plague Bearer: A peasant in Feudal France becomes the vector of the Black Death to balance the ledger of the rich.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Legion Protocol: A tech CEO in 2026 uploads her rage to the cloud to break the digital wheel.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSpanning 12,000 years, this anthology is a dark, gripping exploration of the thin line between survival and extinction. The library is closed. The Cycle is ending. Are you the Ninth Vessel?","brand":"V.W.
