The Cabala of the Cushite, Zephaniah by Beverly C. Prince is a tale of a mystical journey connecting the Divine, the self, and the pragmatic in ways that many of us have never discovered before. In a colorful combination of spirituality, science fiction, and esotericism, at the heart of this story is Zephaniah the Cushite, a man who functions with the extreme confidence of someone totally unafraid. He takes a transformative journey deep beneath the surface of the Earth where events threaten to repeat a dark episode in history. Zephaniah soon assumes the role of a go-between for a divided group of people. It becomes an opportunity for the two groups to take a step toward understanding each other’s values, culture, race, and technology. But the dark side of human nature lures them into conflict and conquest.

Cabala and Jewish mystical practices have seen a resurgence in popularity, and The Cabala of the Cushite, Zephaniah provides ideas on how these two disciplines are connected. Beverly C. Prince hooks you from the beginning, providing you with an in-depth look at Zepha as the main protagonist and as a representation of a metaphorical answer to the long period of human struggle and oppression. The narrative takes a meaningful and uncomplicated path that gives your reading experience a strong feeling of meditative isolation and expands your consciousness. It even employs the wisdom of the tarot and astrology in delivering concepts about good and evil and in describing the hero’s journey. In doing so, Prince strikes the perfect balance in addressing themes that relate to the logical, the linear, the intangible, and the ethereal. A profound voice and evocative descriptions further add power and beauty to this mystical religious tale and a pathway to discovering our similarities and differences with others and how we should embrace them. Highly recommended.
