|  | | Far Better Set on the distant island of Fairlon, here is a fantasy adventure that is wonderfully different, although in ways it is also faintly familiar.
Starting with the lengthy dream sequence in Book IV of The Travellers, I've crafted an enjoyable, stand-alone adventure tale. As for the title, well, you'll need to buy a copy to learn about that. | |  | | Scorpion "Scorpion" is an American privateer from 1777 that chases a pirate into a storm, and then never returns. Will you sign on?
If you think about it, a ship and her crew can easily be seen as a micrososm of how a nation should go about its business, The three parts of a person--strength, mind, and heart--are each called on by a sailor, and if that mariner is encouraged to readily use all three parts, then that sailor will be most able. Imagine then, what a ship crewed by such sailors would be like, especially if that ship is endeavoring to preserve the nation represented by its flag. Reading "Scorpion" will introduce you to just such a crew. So go to Amazon, and either order the paperback or get it | |  | | Snowstorm A monster snowstorm, a much different time, a much different era, people facing adversity, people learning what's important, a wide-ranging cast of characters including a young woman overcoming an inner turmoil, all of that and still more.
Having read Arthur Hailey's "Airport" and "Hotel", I wanted to try a novel that also drew together a wide-ranging cast of characters. "Snowstorm" is the result, while it also draws on my own experiences during Chicago's great snowstorm of 1967, as well as on my familiarity with the city and its North Shore environs. Add to all of that the themes on home and family, and this tale should offer something for everyone. Finally, thanks to the nine plus years that I worked the bookstores at O'Hare, and to my ready observations, I was able to work in Joe's solut | |  | | The Travellers, Book I, While Weeping Lasts A great storm, a giant eddy amid that storm, a savage raid, a ruthless king, an escape-proof dungeon, challenges, visions, daring, intrigue, faith, determination, an island that is home to the usual and the unusual—all on the island of Atlantis, and all part of epic adventure story. Now, take the first step, and order a copy—paperback or Kindle.
This is the start of a six-book tale of adventure and war--the age-old formula for an epic--and as the summary says, this one is set on the island that will become Atlantis. Yet, it is not an ancient version of ancient Greece. Instead, a fairly involved, more modern society that is divided into three realms has arisen, while this lengthy tale tells how the three realms became one under the legendary name.
It starts with the abduction of the first princess of one of the realms by the king of one of the others. Then Jim Connors is "brought" to the island, he helps the | |  | | Time-Keeper Set in Evanston, Illinois, in 1968, this is the tale of a most interesting young man, Jack Lord.
