The Reincarnationist Papers

The Reincarnationist Papers: Book 1

D. Eric Maikranz

Discovered as three notebooks in an antique store in Rome at the turn of the millennium, The Reincarnationist Papers offers a tantalizing glimpse into the Cognomina, a secret society of people who possess total recall of their past lives.

Evan Michaels struggles with being different, with having the complete memories of two other people who lived sequentially before him. He fights loneliness and believes he is unique until he meets Poppy. She recognizes his struggle because she is like him, except that she is much older, remembering seven consecutive lives. But there is something else she must share with Evan - she is a member of the secretive Cognomina. They are, in effect, immortals - compiling experiences and skills over lifetimes into near superhuman abilities that they have used to drive history over centuries.

Poppy invites Evan into the Cognomina, but he must face their tests before entering this mysterious society as their equal.

The Reincarnationist Papers: Book 2

D. Eric Maikranz

Evan Michaels is back in a new life as a Syrian refugee. When strange memories of his former lives lead him back to Zurich, headquarters of his old family of fellow reincarnationists, the Cognomina, he must reacquire their trust to rejoin their ranks.

On the last leg of this journey, he is intercepted by an excommunicated member of the Cognomina who holds some serious grudges. She's on a mission to wipe out large portions of the world's population to save the planet from destruction and animals from extinction. She proposes a union of the Cognomina and her own group of reincarnationists, but her true goals are dark indeed, and her resources are vast.

Evan finds himself at the start of a war between two factions of immortal beings, each with a radically different vision for life on earth.
