The Lockpicker's Pilgrimage

<p><span>"A profound and unique take on the post-apocalyptic genre - where the apocalypse is of the mind and culture rather than a physical catastrophe."</span></p><p><em>- John McGeorge, Teaching Fellow, The University of Auckland.</em></p><p><span>"A gift to share with anyone who loves expanding the way they interpret the world they live in."</span></p><p><em>- Mark Wilson, Rector of St. Andrew's College, Christchurch.</em></p><p><span>"</span><em>The Lockpicker's Pilgrimage</em><span> picks the locks of one's belief systems and ideologies, arresting the reader with real-world implications. It stands alongside Jostein Gaarder's </span><em>Sophie's World</em><span> or Madeleine L'Engle's </span><em>A Wrinkle in Time.</em><span>"</span></p><p><em>- Rev. Dr. Myk Habets, Head of Theology, Laidlaw College, Auckland.</em></p><p><span>Locksmith turned lockpicker, West roams a rusting world of emptiness, until an unexpected encounter reveals insider information about the most elusive resource: honey. Instead of trading it for passage to The Other Island, where Anointed Sophia claims trustworthy knowledge about reality itself, cunning West devises alternative plans for the liquid gold.</span></p><p><span>However, when unpredictable Dasein discovers West's unusual skillset, West must confront his own dubious ethics. The more his options shrink, the more he realises wonderment is essential for enlightenment.</span></p><p></p>
