Book Description
The Pointing Bone is an action adventure that will leave you drained. Set against the majesty of the Sydney Olympic Games and the Australian outback, terrorists build and then demonstrate that they have nuclear weapons and the willingness to use them. Entangled in this most daring terrorist plot ever is a young aborigine medicine man. Tuomartu would be asked by the tribal elders to chase the evilness that comes upon the tribe. For this purpose he has only one tool...the ornate stick passed through the generations believed to wield the power to stand against tribal enemies. Only the medicine man knew how to use the Pointing Bone...only he could save his tribe and perhaps the world from disaster thought unimaginable before September 11th 2001. Nuclear weapons in the hands of madmen! What the CIA, Australian Federal Police and inept Olympic security failed to prevent was now in the hands of the Aborigine's spiritual leader. Only the medicine man had the power of the spirit Gods at his disposal and with his Pointing Bone he alone would stand against the power of the atom in the hands of extremists.

And no one cared when no trace of the man could be found. But five months later, Detective-Inspector Bonaparte is called in - and he is determined to solve the mystery. With his usual tenacity he takes up the cold trail. What happened to Anderson, to his hat, to his stockwhip, to his horse's neck-rope? Bony must rely on his eyes and his wits to help him find the answers, for the local inhabitants, both black and white, are keeping their own secrets.

Book Description
Kundela is the name given to the sacred pointing bone of Aboriginal legend. Catapulted into the story from the first page, the reader shares the lives of an Australian farming family dealing with endless drought. Set in the Flinders Ranges of South Australia, vivid action intertwines with mystery murder and romance. Your senses rise to the smell of eucalypt trees after rain, the terror of ants on attack, and the bold landscape colours. You feel a tinge of dust on your skin and these skills permeate this author's style. Joe's raid on the bikie camp, Aboriginal themes, and a midair heart attack add to the drama. Three bodies found on the roadside, their faces and hands blown away by shotgun blasts. Modern aboriginal women in ceremonial dress sit around a large flat stone in a manicured city park, a traditional singing circle. Dry bones shaped to make kundelas point to the effigy of a man. The steamy attraction of the policeman and Joe's daughter add romantic tension, while bush forensics of a senior policeman are a few of the subplots to keep the pages turning in a story that's hard to put down.

Book Description
A rare combination of personal and academic, this book showcases the myriad avenues for transcending the boundaries of reality through direct sensory experience. The Varieties of Magical Experience: Indigenous, Medieval, and Modern Magic provides a comprehensive volume that examines magic in all its aspects. Through detailed case studies, verbatim accounts of personal experiences, and first-hand experience from the authors' own active participation in many alternative religious rituals and ceremonies, this unique book reveals how magic can be a universal phenomenon that crosses cultural, historical, and spatial boundaries. The work is organized in five sections that embrace several broad themes: indigenous magical and shamanic practices; medieval witchcraft; sorcery and hermetic magic; and contemporary Western magical practices, including the role of sexuality, trance, and meditation. The introductory section explores the idea of magic, other realities, and the employment of all the senses, while the final section discusses contemporary issues of ecology and cybermagic. The authors give voice to the powerful emotions and feelings that result from a magical encounter, providing engaging and accessible information to general readers, while those well versed in the opaque world of magic and occultism, consciousness studies, and imaginal and disembodied realms will appreciate the book's content at a deeper level.
