Sinossi

A World Trade Center worker finds himself in a time loop grappling with mortality and fate as he relives the events of September 11th, 2001. 
 
The brain-damaged captive of a drug cartel mutely participates in an ancient struggle over life and death when his botched rescue lands him and a handful of military intelligence personnel and assets on a tropical island.
 
A ruralite wrestling with the decline of his childhood town observes an interloper when he finds the abandoned house he is renovating not so vacant as he thought.
 
The son of a wealthy American businessman is dragged from his frivolous life into the heights of corporate power and prestige. How he wields this newfound power rattles the foundations of the family business, and his own life.
 
In Millennium, author Marty Phillips crafts each of these four stories as part of a whole anthological novel, a glimpse into the changing world experienced by the American millennial. Antelope Hill is proud to present this thought-provoking second work of fiction from Phillips.

Second Treatise of Government

John Locke

"Second Treatise of Government" by John Locke is a political philosophy work published in 1689. Writing anonymously during England's turbulent revolution, Locke outlines a radical vision of society founded on natural rights and government by consent rather than divine authority. His ideas challenge the established order, arguing that legitimate power flows from the people, not kings claiming God-given rule. This foundational text of liberal political theory emerged from dangerous conspiracies and exile, so controversial that Locke never acknowledged authorship during his lifetime.
