"Adults, rejoice! We no longer have to read the kids' copy of Harry Potter because we have Sandy Nathan and Numenon!I could not put it down. Numenon is an epic of similar proportions to Jean Auel's Clan of the Cave Bear ... is superbly written, and beautifully weaves a treasure-trove of spiritual and intellectual wisdom into the story. I am totally enthralled. Where's the sequel?" --Ilene Dillon, MSW

WILL DUANE HAD IT ALL/b>br />
Head of Numenon, the vast, multinational corporation he founded, Will was the richest man on the planet and made more money with every breath. Still in his prime at 63, he had the looks, the women, and the wherewithal to be on top of the world.
He surrounded himself with the best of the best, from the people in his company, to his fifteen thousand square foot home overlooking the San Francisco Bay, to the gourmet chef who prepared every exquisite morsel that went into his mouth.
But a force he could not identify pursued Will Duane. A dark | |  | | Stepping Off the Edge: Learning & Living Spiritual Practice
"Sandy Nathan put herself into every page of her book. Only a truly confident and trusting person would make themselves so vulnerable to readers. It’s easy to trust her. After reading the book, I feel as if I know her. There are parts of her that I recognize in myself. I suspect, so will most readers.
"The author takes us on a journey of self-discovery. Figuratively speaking, Sandy packed her RV, bought a guidebook, and left. She went where spirit led and by journey’s end (although, the journey never really ends) was exactly where she was supposed to be. Chances are, if you’re reading this review, you’ve already packed your bags.
"You won’t find a clearly cut path from where you are to where you’re going to end up via this book. The author rambles about the psyche too much for that. In doing so, she exposes something for everyone. There are chapters devoted to psychology, spirit, grief, fear… she touches them all.
"What the author doesn’t do is tell you how to walk your spiritual path. Nobody can do that. Nor, is the author an armchair Indian—if you want a Native American shaman, look elsewhere. There’s no how-to list in this book that will miraculously change your life. Nor are you going to suddenly contact a spirit guide or start divining the future (well, not as a direct result of this book). The book has Native American undertones, but they’re part of Sandy’s journey. The author works very hard to leave the tools you take on your journey up to you, and that’s exactly as it should be.
"What she does is help you find your spiritual path, help you stay on it, and help you recognize where you are while traveling it, and do so without fear. She accomplishes this by challenging you to examine your life. Are you happy where you are? If the answer is yes, just enjoy the book. Something might inspire you. Just because you’re happy, doesn’t mean you can’t discover something new. If the answer is no, be prepared to discover why and what you can do to change your life. Ms. Nathan’s book is about “doing”—it’s about recognizing your own journey, repairing your problem areas to free your spirit, and then living the result.
"Go ahead, step off the edge. You know you want to…"

Walking the Path to her Self/b>br />

When Sandy Nathan set out to write a book about her profound experience at the Gathering, a Native American spiritual retreat, little did she know it would guide her to chronicle a life of stepping off the edge. Again and again , she takes the risks needed for her soul's growth and vividly presents her personal journey––one of growing into the courageous spiritual being she is. Sandy reminds us we all possess spiritual greatness: It is our birthright.

A future world only heartbeats from our own
By the late 22nd century, the Great Recession of the early 2000s has lead to a worldwide police state. A ruined United States barely functions. Government control masks chaos, dissenters are sent to camps, and technology is outlawed. War rages while the authorities proclaim the Great Peace.
It's New York City on the eve of nuclear Armageddon.
Tomorrow morning at 7:35 AM, a nuclear holocaust will destroy the planet. Two people carry the keys to survival: Jeremy Edgarton, a 16 year old, tech genius and revolutionary, and Eliana, the angelic, off-world traveler sent to Earth to prevent her planet’s death.
Join Eliana and Jeremy as they begin a quest to save two doomed planets … and find each other.
Tales from Earth’s End 1
"Eliana made her way along the sidewalk, knowing that she was dirty, feeling the grit in her hair and on her skin. When she had reached the planet's atmosphere, clothes and all sorts of things had rushed at her with great force, tossing her over and over. Dirt had come, too. She'd found the clothes she needed and put them on the way her teachers had shown her. Then her people had put her where she was...." br />
