Book Description
Sacred Ground is the sequel to Death’s Bright Angel, Part One: The Prophecy. The novel incorporates characters from both the Blackthorn and Silverwood Trilogies., tying together all of the author's previous novels. There are two Time Streams: 2016 and 2018/19, so the past and present are juxtaposed. As the story opens, Dr. Glen Abbott has awakened from a coma following surgery to remove a benign lesion from his brain, only to realize that he is now living two plus years in the past (2016). His young daughter, Hannah, after her transformation into the supreme spiritual being, Gaia Magni, during Samhain, The First Rite of Winter (2018), has sent him back in time to relive a portion of his life over again to free him from the heartbreak and despair of losing his wife and daughter. But there are numerous challenges ahead for Abbott as he attempts to navigate his way through his second life with knowledge of the future before him. Gaia Magni is the fulfillment of a Druid Prophecy. A supreme spiritual being, she is charged with restoring harmony and balance to Nature and preventing an Apocalypse, a Sixth Extinction Level Event (ELE) as the result of humanity’s relentless assault on Mother Earth. Armed with the Wisdom of the Ancients and the power of Dark Energy, Gaia Magni is truly omnipotent with powers unimaginable. She begins her campaign to rescue Earth and the Biosphere by first demonstrating her power to the world by affecting a global blackout that turns the Earth into a Black Marble. Though an “enlightened spirit”, Gaia Magni makes it clear to everyone that she is prepared, if necessary, to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth in order to protect the millions of other species in the Biosphere on the brink of extinction as a result of humanity’s wanton destruction of the natural world. But there are those in governments and billion-dollar corporations who vigorously oppose the Rules of Natural Law that Gaia Magni has imposed and resist The Way Forward. They are intent on keeping their wealth and power at all costs, even if it means the end of humanity...

Pages : 500
Book Description
A Bridge Across Forever, sequel to Death’s Bright Angel, Part Two: Sacred Ground, is the final installment in the Sacred Ground Trilogy. There are two separate time-lines. As the story opens, it is 2019 and Dr. Glen Abbott has traveled to Scotland to meet with Mairi-Lea Hartford at the insistence of Gaia Magni, the Supreme Spiritual Being charged with restoring harmony and balance to Nature and preventing a Sixth Extinction Level Event (ELE). Gaia Magni has taken control of Earth. She is prepared, if necessary, to wipe humanity from the face of the Earth in order to protect the millions of other species in the Biosphere. But Earth has lost her resiliency and Gaia Magni is forced to adopt extreme measures in order to save Nature and humanity. She seeks help from the late John Hartford, the brilliant theoretical physicist assassinated in 1983 by the Soviet Union. Gaia Magni requires Hartford’s unique understanding of quantum theory to build a Galactic Bridge that will link Earth with Echo, the new world she has created 70,000 light years across the galaxy. Echo is humanity’s last chance to live in harmony and balance with Nature. But a visit to an Alternate Reality reveals a devastating future for Earth. The Doomsday Clock is ticking and it is a race against Time to save the Biosphere. In the alternate reality of 2017, Glen Abbott’s relationship with Virginia Montgomery is failing. She suffers from a retrograde amnesia that has left her without any emotional connection to her daughter or husband. Their marriage is on the rocks and he fears he has lost his chance to reclaim the love and contentment they had enjoyed before her death in 2018. In desperation, he tells her the truth; that he is from the future and that their daughter, Hannah, will evolve into Gaia Magni upon her Ascension. But can Montgomery, who has her own demons to contend with, believe him? Trust him? Ever love him again?

Moreover, he is extremely worried about their 3 yr-old daughter, Hannah, who does not understand why her mother is no longer around. Once a bright, precocious child, Hannah has begun to withdraw into herself. Abbott seeks help from Hannah's godfather, John Hanson, the former director of Camps Silverwood and Pinefall. Hanson is quick to theorize that Hannah may be endowed with prenatal memories and that she is keeping secrets and her own council. It soon becomes apparent that Hannah is not regressing but her development is taking an extraordinary turn. With the arrival of Hannah's cousin, Mairi-Lea Hartford, from Braemore, Scotland, the true nature of Hannah's endowment is revealed.

Unauthorized Versions
Author: José Lanters
Publisher: CUA Press
ISBN: 9780813209869
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
Certain moments in history, especially periods of cultural turmoil and political change, appear to be conducive to the writing of Menippean satire. Unauthorized Versions is the first integral study of Menippean satires written in Ireland in the three decades following the declaration of the Irish Free State in 1922. The book discusses works by Darrell Figgis, Eimar O'Duffy, Austin Clarke, Flann O'Brien, and Mervyn Wall in the context of political and social developments, particularly relating to economic policy, the role of the Church, and censorship. Mikhail Bakhtin defines Menippean satire as an unresolved dialogue between actual and/or implied voices designed to test a truth or philosophical idea. The Irish satirists of the first half of the twentieth century use medieval Ireland as a setting for addressing contemporary concerns, or borrow characters from medieval Irish texts that they place in a modern context. Each satire thus creates a series of dialogues: between the past and present; between characters who represent opposing values and ideologies; and between the older texts and their modern reworkings. Unauthorized Versions reveals the double bind at the core of every Menippean satire. Each writer discussed in the book expresses an awareness of the paradox of an author writing in the vacuum created by official censorship, seeking to engage his audience in the dethroning of the very authorities by whom he is deprived of his audience. By revealing his own ambiguous position, the satirist knowingly subverts his own authority along with that of his opponents. This study will appeal to students and scholars interested in Irish literature, genre studies, the reception of the Middle Ages, and the relationship between literature and history. Jos Lanters, associate professor of classics at the University of Oklahoma, will begin her position as associate professor of English at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in Fall 2000. She is author of Missed Understandings: A Study of Stage Adaptations of the Works of James Joyce and coeditor of Troubled Histories, Troubled Fictions: Twentieth-Century Anglo-Irish Prose. "Irish satire in the twentieth century has awaited a critic as intelligent and well-informed as Jose Lanters, whose Unauthorized Versions nicely complements Vivian Mercier's pioneering efforts. For several of the works she discusses, Lanters here provides the only substantial criticism they have received to date. Her approach combines sensitivity to form and expression with a constant attentiveness to historical context, while her study is anchored in a lucid and suggestive use of Bakhtin. Every library with an interest in Irish writing will want this book."--R. Brandon Kershner Alumni Professor of English, University of Florida "Lanters' well-argued volume will be a valuable resource for the study of modern Irish prose at the upper-division undergraduate level and above."--Choice Works discussed in Unauthorized Versions Darrell Figgis The Return of the Hero Eimar O'Duffy King Goshawk and the Birds The Spacious Adventures of the Man in the Street Asses in Clover Austin Clarke The Bright Temptation The Singing-Men at Cashel The Sun Dances at Easter Flann O'Brien At Swim-Two-Birds The Third Policeman Mervyn Wall The Unfortunate Fursey The Return of Fursey
