"There are things that sleep beneath the earth. Things that were buried not to be remembered, but to be forgotten.

For thirteen thousand years, the stones kept their secret. For thirteen thousand years, the seal remained intact. For thirteen thousand years, humanity lived on, ignorant that its greatest enemy was not dead.

It was only waiting.

Now, at an archaeological dig in Turkey, three researchers are about to discover that humanity's darkest myths are not warnings from the past.

They are prophecies.

And some doors, once opened, can never be closed again."

An archaeological find that shouldn't exist. A name that shouldn't be written. A tomb that shouldn't be opened.

When Dr. Unai Lezama's team discovers an impossible sarcophagus in the depths of Anatolia, the Vatican sends its best archaeologist: Father Michael Carter. The dating is clear: 13,000 years old. The inscription, chilling: Hêlèl ben ?a?ar, the Hebrew name for Lucifer.

How can a biblical reference exist millennia before the Bible was written?

As Carter, Lezama, and Dr. Ingrid Weiss struggle to decipher reliefs that tell a forbidden story, the incidents at the dig site multiply. Because this is no ordinary tomb. It is a prison. And its occupant has been waiting for far too long.

A novel that fuses the archaeological thriller of Dan Brown with the cosmic horror of Lovecraft and the theological depth of The Exorcist.

"Some truths were buried for a reason. Unearthing them could be humanity's last mistake."

THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL THRILLER THAT IS REVOLUTIONIZING THE GENRE

THE FORGOTTEN TOMB is the new archaeological mystery and biblical horror novel that readers are comparing to The Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons, and The Exorcist. A story that begins as a routine archaeological dig and transforms into a race against time to prevent the apocalypse.

Francisco Angulo de Lafuente is a Spanish author, programmer, and biotechnology researcher who has carved out a unique niche at the intersection of science and speculative fiction. Born in Madrid in 1976, Angulo combines his technical expertise with a gift for storytelling that has produced an impressive catalog of 39 published works.

With degrees in Computer Engineering and Biotechnology from the Polytechnic University of Madrid, Angulo first gained recognition in the scientific community as the research director of the groundbreaking Ecofa project. His development of second-generation biofuel from bacteria fed with organic waste earned him a patent in 2005 and established him as an innovator in sustainable energy solutions. This revolutionary process, which uses microorganisms to produce biofuel from abundant organic waste materials, demonstrated his ability to think beyond conventional boundaries?a skill that would later define his literary career.

Angulo's transition from laboratory to literature has resulted in a prolific output of science fiction novels that blend technical precision with imaginative storytelling. His works, often compared to Jules Verne for their prophetic integration of emerging technologies, explore themes ranging from artificial intelligence and environmental sustainability to post-apocalyptic survival and cyberpunk futures.

Recent acclaimed titles include ApocalipsIA: The Day After AGI (2024), a haunting exploration of artificial general intelligence set in a devastated Madrid; Star Wind: The Pyramid of Destiny (2024), an interplanetary adventure on the alien world of Zephyria; and Shanghai 3 (2024), a cyberpunk thriller set in a mining colony on Europa. His work has garnered international attention, with translations available in multiple languages including Catalan, Danish, and Romanian.

In 2024, Angulo's innovative spirit extended to the tech world when his Enhanced Unified Holographic Neural Network (EUHNN) project, combining ray tracing and CUDA for AI applications, was initially recognized as the winning entry in the NVIDIA and LlamaIndex developer contest, further demonstrating his ability to bridge the gap between theoretical science and practical application.
