The Altar of Pergamon: The Mystery of the Dark Angel and the Future of the World by Jonathan Cahn — a gripping international thriller from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Harbinger.
Is it possible that an ancient mystery has been shaping the events of the modern world?
Before the fall of Pergamon, a colossal altar stood at the city’s heights — so ominous that the Book of Revelation called the place “the throne of Satan.” In this new work, Jonathan Cahn weaves that ancient object into a fast-paced story of hidden patterns, global pursuit, and spiritual stakes.
Ariel Herzog is a professional skeptic, known for dismantling claims of the supernatural. After a lecture, a mysterious stranger hands him a single cryptic page from a forbidden illuminated manuscript. That page sends him across continents — from New York to Istanbul, Berlin, Moscow, the American desert, the Caribbean, Rome, and Jerusalem — as he and an unlikely ally, Lara Winter, try to recover the rest of the text.
With each page, a larger picture comes into focus. At the same time, a secret organization that has guarded the mystery for centuries closes in to stop them.
Told in the narrative style that made The Harbinger a phenomenon, The Altar of Pergamon blends suspense, history, and Cahn’s signature prophetic themes. The story is fictional. The author presents the mysteries and historical connections behind it as real.
