Welcome! If you're just discovering the Belial Series, you're in the right place. This is your guide to where to begin, what to expect, and how to follow Laney McPhearson’s journey from academic skeptic to full-blown mythological troublemaker.
What is The Belial Stone about?The series begins with The Belial Stone, where archaeology professor Laney McPhearson stumbles onto a deadly conspiracy rooted in the origins of humanity itself. As ancient secrets surface, Laney is forced into a race against time—and truth.
It’s a story of forgotten history, covert organizations, and the dangerous price of asking “what if?”
Is the story based on real myths and science?Yes. The books blend historical facts, apocryphal texts (like the Book of Enoch), and fringe science to ask one core question:What truths might history have buried?
The goal is to keep you guessing—and wondering if any of it could be real.
Is this a standalone or a series?The Belial Series is a multi-book saga where each entry builds on the last. Characters evolve, mysteries deepen, and the stakes only get higher.
That said, The Belial Stone works well as a first taste—and if you like what you read, there’s plenty more waiting.
