ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS IS THE SECOND BOOK OF MILLENNIUM'S GATE, A TRILOGY SPANNING TWO HUNDRED YEARS
A LIGHTNING BOLT FROM THE HAND OF GOD FORGED ITS TOOL TO SECURE THE DESTINY OF HUMANITY AND LEAD THEM TO MILLENNIUM'S GATE IGGY MARCUS MUST PERSUADE MAN TO ABANDON THE ENVY AND GREED FORCE-FED HIM BY TYRANTS AND SLAVE MASTERS SINCE HE FIRST STOOD ERECT. HIS ENEMIES ARE RUTHLESS AND THE BATTLE IS EPIC, BUT FIRST, HE MUST
ABOLISH MAN'S ABILITY TO ANNIHILATE HIMSELF. ONLY THEN COULD HUMANITY RENOUNCE ADOLESCENCE TO JOIN THE CITIZENS OF THE UNIVERSE.
AUTONOMY WOULD ONLY ALLOW HIM TO LEAD MEN TO THE INTERSECTION OF ETERNITY AND OBLIVION. THE PATH WAS THEIRS TO CHOOSE. WOULD HE FULFILL HIS DESTINY, OR WOULD IT BE HUMANITY'S END? THE PATH TO THE FUTURE REQUIRED MEN TO LEARN WHAT IGGY'S MOTHER TAUGHT HIM FIFTY YEARS BEFORE. "NEVER LET OTHERS' OPINIONS DEFINE YOUR SELF-WORTH. A TRUE, VALID SELF-IMAGE, CAN ONLY COME FROM WITHIN THROUGH MASTERY BY ACHIEVEMENT." THAT WISDOM WOULD ABOLISH ENVY
AND GREED, THE ROOTS OF ALL TRAGEDY AND OPPRESSION.
