And what’s all this prophecy nonsense about? About the Author Christopher Richard grew up in the suburbs of Long Island, New York. He would spend his summers running through the woods, catching toads and snakes and getting covered in mud. His first introduction to the world of reading was 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea at age nine, and by the time he entered high school, Richard had written over one hundred stories. After locating the flash drive containing those stories as an adult, he decided it was time to pick them up, polish them off, and put them out into the world.
Download or read book The E T Chronicles written by Louise PhD, Rita and published by Hampton Roads Publishing. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The E.T. Chronicles grapples with the big questions such as Who are we? Where do we come from? Why are we here? through a careful reading of world mythology. The authors organize these ancient stories into a chronology that starts with in the beginning and ends with the advent of civilization in an effort to discover the true story of human origins. The book brings together myths from many cultures including the Sumerians, the Greeks, the Maya and the Aborigines of Australia. Current scientific discoveries are then placed side-by-side with these early worldviews. Among the topics covered are creation myths, gods and goddesses, heaven, the gods and their toys (space ships or chariots?), and the quest for immortality. Could it be that those ancient stories of the gods were more than the product of someone's fanciful imagination? Is it possible that the writers, chroniclers, and scribes of our distant past actually record an accurate view of our origin?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel of ancient lore and magic set in the modern day. Heather Devine is a writer of women's spirituality and a student of Celtic Traditions. When researching Irish lore for her next book, she comes across an ancient ritual and performs it, conjuring an Otherworld Being: a Faery Queen. The Faery Queen becomes Heather's teacher of the Faery Tradition, which--according to Queen Fay--can only be passed down mouth-to-ear; an oral Faery Tradition rich with wisdom and kept hidden in the Land of Faery since the Tuatha De Danaan withdraw from the world of mortals. Queen Fay encompasses Heather in a mist of powerful experiences; some of which challenge Heather's sanity and force her to have an awakening of past life memory. As Heather's relationship with the Faery Queen develops, Heather is visited by a Leanhuan Sidhe, Trooping Faery, the Unseelie Court, obtains a Fetch, and is unwittingly coached for admittance into the inner court of the Sidhe. When Heather is escorted into Faeryland, there she receives a 'gift of Faery'. CHILDREN OF THE STARS is a beautifully written tale, woven with ancient magic and modern wonderment, often enchanting the reader into believing they are part of the story, and leaving one wondering if this tale is more real than mere fantasy.

Download or read book The Boy Who Remembered Everything written by Edward Paul Alsace and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All poets have an obligation to bear witness to the age in which they live. They also have a duty to rejuvenate the traditions of their art and renovate its forms. The epic is an expression of the ideology of empire. In the modern world it has been eclipsed by the popularity of the novel and the epic dimensions of cinematic art. "The Boy Who Remembered Everything" is a lyrical odyssey set against the backdrop of our contemporary understanding of the world. Part one, 'Coming of Age in the Universe', begins in the deep Darwinian past and ends in Einstein's surreal space-time continuum. From a prehistoric hell-scape comparable to Dante's chronicle of the underworld, we watch as human life emerges and great civilizations flourish, culminating in a century of holocaust and world war. Contemporary poetry and its traditional pretensions too often ignore our looming existential dilemma. After passage through a wormhole into a parallel universe, part two, 'Digest of a Soul' begins. This companion piece is a romantic celebration of the world of nature---a vision of harmony printed as developmental milestones in a personal history---from the playful fantasies of childhood to a transcendent vision of the numinous void.
