Book Description
“Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living; it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope.”-Dr. Seuss. This book is not just a compilation of short stories contributed by diverse age groups, but a reservoir of know-hows of the authors. Writers have taken the flight of their dreams and penned down their moods and imaginations. There is an interesting story behind this compilation. Once, while discussing the importance of communication skills with the young learners, I asked them to write formal as well as informal dialogues, and also to develop dialogues to form a story, the result was incredible. They came up with very interesting stories, from there the seed of anthology was sown. With the efforts and the interest of the contributors, this Road to the Fantasy World was paved. The key to successful life lies in learning and sharing of ideas. Reading and writing can stimulate and excite imagination as well as arouse curiosity in readers. With a penchant to instill creative writing skills, a huge canvas of open theme with a palette of imaginative colors is provided to the contributors, and as a result, this beautiful anthology is ready to take the readers in the make-believe world of creative writers.

Book Description
AMERICAN FREEDOM AND JUSTICE VS. THE TYRANNIES OF THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY The new government in central Europe, called the Confederated Principalities of Europe, was formed by an alliance between Gustavus Adolphus, King of Sweden, and the West Virginians led by Mike Stearns who were transplanted into 17th-century Germany by a mysterious cosmic accident. The new regime is shaky. Outside its borders, the Thirty Years War continues to rage. Within, it is beset by financial crisis as well as the political and social tensions between the democratic ideals of the 20th-century Americans and the aristocracy which continues to rule the roost in the CPE as everywhere in Europe. Worst of all, the CPE has aroused the implacable hostility of Cardinal Richelieu, the effective ruler of France. Richelieu has created the League of Ostend in order to strike at the weakest link in the CPE's armor¾its dependence on the Baltic as the lifeline between Gustav Adolf's Sweden and the rest of his realm. The greatest naval war in European history is about to erupt. Like it or not, Gustavus Adolphus will have to rely on Mike Stearns and the technical wizardry of his obstreperous Americans to save the King of Sweden from ruin. Caught in the conflagration are two American diplomatic missions abroaRebecca Stearns' mission to France and Holland, and the embassy which Mike Stearns sent to King Charles of England headed by his sister Rita and Melissa Mailey. Rebecca finds herself trapped in war-torn Amsterdam; Rita and Melissa, imprisoned in the Tower of London. And much as Mike wants to transport 20th-century values into war-torn 17th-century Europe by Sweet Reason, still he finds comfort in the fact that Julie, who once trained to be an Olympic marksman, still has her rifle . . .
