|  | | Chronicles of the HEdge A true page-turner, Jeff Ovall’s futurist work of fiction peers into the history of a world not yet realized, yet ominously closer than most could imagine. A time in which the past has been reborn and humankind, in all its glory and misery, has finally reached the very edge of human history.
Prologue:
Approaching the eve of a new century, there was great anticipation for the future of mankind. Optimism flourished as humanity teetered on the edge of the old order, ready to explode into the new.
| |  | | The Man Who Saved Christmas Christmas - only days away; plastic snowmen and glowing reindeer adorn the lawns of neighborhoods all across America. All is calm, all is bright, and yet there is something tragically wrong about this Christmas night.
With swift passage through Congress, the Anti-Intolerance legislation was signed into law prohibiting the public display of religious symbols. The traditional centerpiece enjoyed by millions every Christmas, the Nativity Scene, is now gone.
This is one of those perennial issues that often stir emotions to the brink. But taking a lighter approach to the argument, wouldn't it be fun if, somehow, through some bizarre chain of events, the person who most fervently opposes open displays of religion, became the mouthpiece from which a fictitious law like the Anti-Intolerance bill, was overturned?
This story brings to life a witty rendition of the political struggles fought every December over something as humble and yet powerful as the display of the Nativity Scene.
