TALES OF BROTHER MARCUS II relates the story of Stefan, a man sickened by the endless wars that have blighted his life. Stefan leaves his homeland to seek the legendary land of his ancestors and encounters the mysterious Brother Marcus, and, with this strange monk he sets out on a journey to a hidden monastery. But this narrative is more than a simple tale of adventure. As it unfolds, the reader is led into an allegorical exploration of temple symbolism that reveals truths about the secret life of the soul, a life that is central to those individuals that have heard the call of the Holy Spirit, and who are compelled to undertake a pilgrimage that leads them into the inner sanctum of Creation.
