From inside dust jacket: Behind the staid public rooms of an old-world gentlemen's club operates a more mysterious organization: the Explorers Guild, a clandestine group of adventurers who bravely journey to those places in which light gives way to shadow and reason is usurped by myth. The secrets they seek are hidden in mountain ranges and lost in deserts, buried in the ocean floor and lodged deep in polar ice. The aim of the Explorer Guild: to discover the mysteries that lie beyond the boundaries of the known world. Set against the backdrop of World War I, with western civilization on the edge of calamity, the first installment in The Explorers Guild series, A Passage to Shambhala, concerns the Guild's quest to find the golden city of Buddhist myth. The search will take them from the polar north to the Mongolian deserts, through the underground canals of Asia to deep inside the Himalayas, before the fabled city finally divulges its secrets and the globe-spanning journey plays out to its startling conclusion. To throw light into the shadowed corners of the earth--this is the raison d'être of the secret order of kindred souls into which you have stumbled, gentle reader. So gather your maps, your compass, your courage, your wits and join us on an extraordinary journey into Terra Incognita, the Unknown World.
