Visited by an angel Theodoros is instructed to make the Gears of Uriel, which is passed from one generation to the next for more than five hundred years. This family are the guardians who protect it from the evil enveloping our world, casting Theodoros' life into mayhem. Following each of his descendants and the danger often accompanying the device, this is a spiritual quest, exposing how religion has often cloaked the truth from mankind, with risk of death to the keepers of truth - those heretics who speak up against an organization claiming to be God's mouthpiece and ultimate authority. The spiritual conflict spans centuries, illustrating the nature of religious worship, from ancient times into the modern. No matter how much things change, they remain the same. Set in ancient Greece on the island of Antikythera, this is vivid, surreal, and a smorgasbord of antiquated ritual. Metaphysical historical fantasy has found a true home in this novel. Angels walk with men, the realm of gods has no boundary, and religious family feuds are the most misguided toxin of all. This is a profound tale which delivers a journey worthy of the saints.

About the Author Having lived there almost all his life, where he and his wife raised their four children, Jeff is pleased to call Portland, Oregon, his home. In retrospect it was almost perfect synchronicity; a very early passion for reading and writing, growing up just a few blocks from the library, in a city well known for its many bookstores; what other vocational choice made sense but writer? Early indications predicted Jeff would focus on science fiction since he devoured all the local library had to offer. After begging his mother to use her typewriter at age eight he even began to write his first story, but the stories of Ray Bradbury threw an element of fantasy into the mix, and a sudden and unexpected fascination with ancient history added yet another dimension to his ideas. After receiving his BA in English with a minor in writing he worked for several years as a technical writer, but the novels would wait no longer. He published Draegnstoen, a historical fantasy, in early 2011, followed by the sequel Highland King before the end of that same year. Gears of Uriel goes into far greater depth with spiritual ideas first hinted at in Highland King. The first of a trilogy, the next one being Tyrian. Jeff hopes to someday get back around to Science Fiction, this time without the typewriter.

By Monique Lomino This is a story that spans several generations,starting with Theodoros who was approached by an angel with a request for him to build the Gears of Uriel. A device that holds a truth many in power do not want known.Wow!!! This book is amazing, It's not just a simple story to read while having a few free hours.It is a tale that you clear time for and settle in for the long haul. Jeffrey Blackmer managed to do what I absolutely love and that is to weave a wonderful tale while threading important information throughout.I was swept away on a cloud of knowledge while reading this book and when it was finished I came away with a feeling of pure satisfaction.Thank you Mr. Blackmer,I applaud your brilliance.

We follow the unravelling of organised religion throughout history and are faced with what really matters – spirituality and the eternal strength of the human soul.This book is exceedingly well-researched, but without bogging the reader down with tiring information. It’s all woven into the body of the story and it works well, is written in a relaxed manner, and is not forced upon the reader. That, I find, is a difficult balance to maintain but is carried off well.The descriptions of nature are wonderful and vivid – the author has a real knack for them.Following the story throughout the ages, I became attached to some of the guardians more than others – such as Eudokia and Pascal, whose pain I really felt! – yet, all of the guardians are distinct colourful characters and have a very precise role to play. The angels, too, are very different one from the other, but they always express their wisdom and compassion openly.The messages in this novel are profound and ignite a spark of curiosity to learn more in the reader. It is a bold and challenging novel, and one that requires soul searching to understand what the real truth is. I’m sure there will be some who will not agree with what the author is writing, but I think it is definitely worth reading and I would certainly recommend it. Its fantastical elements are counterbalanced well with the small details which ground this book in an interesting blend of spiritual realism, history and fantasy, as well as the metaphysical. A very interesting read!

By Scott Blackmer Although this book is not the genre i normally read, I found it to be very compelling and hard to put down. The authors blend of mythological creatures spirituality and history made it a very interesting Quest. It was obvious the author really did a great deal of research to make this book come alive. As Jeff Blackmer's brother, I have read all of his books and each one has been an enjoyable read. This book however takes his writing in a new direction, one i am sure readers will find wanting more. It is amazing to me that Jeff Blackmer can take an object, place or people out of history and create a novel as mysterious and spiritual as this one. I highly recommend this book. I think it will inspire as well as entertain
