The Lost Sacrament: Quest for the Kykeon is an esoteric thriller told through the journal of an astrophysicist turned mystic. It’s a fictional dive into the sacred mysteries of the Kykeon, Eleusis, and the hidden psychedelic history of sacred traditions. Blending real research, historical secrets, and spiritual danger, it’s a book that dares to ask what might happen if the world remembered the truth buried beneath institutional belief.

“The Lost Sacrament is a beautifully woven journey in search of the Eleusinian Kykeon—blending science, mythology, and entheogens into a modern myth. I lost track of time and got goosebumps as William shares vivid, personal psychedelic experiences that could only come from true inner exploration.”
—Adam Tapp, host of Tapped into Psychedelics

From the back cover:
A mind-expanding odyssey that fuses ancient mystery schools, entheogens, and the search for a lost sacrament.
Finally—a novel written for psychonauts, truth-seekers, and anyone who has ever questioned reality itself. Phillip Lethes is a man of science—logic, evidence, and reason. But when a trail of cryptic clues leads him and his friends deep into the world of lost sacraments and ancient mystery schools, he’s forced to confront a truth no textbook can explain.
Their mission? To reconstruct the most powerful psychedelic elixir ever known. The Kykeon. An elixir lost to history… until now. Their journey takes them into the heart of forgotten rituals and sacred plants—DMT, psilocybin mushrooms, ayahuasca, Amanita muscaria—each one a key unlocking doors to realms beyond comprehension. But if they succeed, will they bring back knowledge… or madness? Part thriller. Part metaphysical revelation. And packed with trip reports so vivid, you will swear you’ve been there yourself.
