Codex

World Codex is a brand-new book series, of which this is the first installment. Each book will take advantage of a different motif and thematic flavor. The subject matter in Codex book 1 ranges from historical fact, as illustrated in "The Somerton Man," to science fiction, as displayed by "Beyond Proxima." The style of the book incorporates colored graphics to enhance the stories through visual appreciation; this format is intended to better capture the attention of the reader. To further enrich the reader's experience, sections of the book are interactive with the World Codex website. This aspect of World Codex is exemplified by the solution to the Stonehenge Cipher Challenge, and a revelatory secret which is hidden in plain sight for Codex Club Members (CCM) only. Integral to the movement toward a cutting-edge format, the conventional table of contents is augmented by a Content Welcome Page, or CWP, to better mirror the website navigation page. Topics presented range from unsolved mysteries to scientific breakthroughs, with the exploration of trailblazing concepts throughout.
