Black Night Bright Dawn, a novel of good versus evil set against the momentous events of the 1930's and 40's, chronicles the lives of two look-alike young men reared in vastly different cultures. Adolph Schweid is the son of rabidly anti-Semitic parents living in Berlin, while Eric Roth is the son of Jewish parents in Brooklyn, New York. Adolf exhibits a fanatical hatred of Jews through his actions as a teenager and as an SS officer in World War II. Eric comes of age in lower middle-class circumstances, proud of his Jewish heritage and later serves as an OSS officer during the war. Shifting between Berlin and Brooklyn, the story describes how the cataclysmic events of that critical period in history influences each one's life, culminating in a climactic and explosive confrontation when a long-buried secret leads to a post-war meeting between the two.

Captain Siobhan Dunmoore wanted to believe the long war against the invading Shrehari Empire had finally banished the ghosts of her past. But when her ship Iolanthe, a heavily armed man-of-war masked as a bulk freighter, finds itself in need of replenishment after a long patrol spent stalking human and alien foes, she is confronted with events eerily reminiscent of a past she thought buried. When evidence of treason and marauders bold enough to strike a Navy outpost leave her no choice, Dunmoore knows she must finish the cleanup job Fleet Headquarters ordered her to abandon years ago. Fortunately, Iolanthe and her crew are the perfect instruments with which to dispense much-needed retribution, despite General Orders and the Fleet‘s bureaucracy doing their best to tie a captain’s hands. With her ship taking on the guise of a privateer, she sets out on a merciless hunt to eliminate a band of soulless soldiers of fortune and teach the ghosts of her past a lesson they will never forget.

But once a year, Lorcan transforms her back to her Draíolon form and offers a truce. And every year Evelayn refuses—for he requires her to Bind herself to him for life. But now, with an Ancient power bearing down upon them, everything changes. Discovering she need her enemies even more than her allies, Evelayn partners with Lorcan.

Most of the book is a collection of documents from other interesting sources, mainly contemporary, and available on the web. But the explanations and the original approach of the author are breath-taking in their boldness and stretch of the imagination. He makes spiritual things seem vital, real and familiar, including Lucifer himself, who must once have been a most engaging character -- and could perhaps be so again.
