Book 2 of The Sock, or Steven Ph. Bearlyman's Adventures in Parallel Dimensions sees Rose Hamilton-Silver join Steven to explore the world beyond socks where they run into . . . the Romans. Yup. Turns out there is hardly a dimension in the entire universe the Romans haven’t invaded. Their empire may be past its sell-by-date on Earth, but they are still conquering territories in the universe-at-large. And looking for a sock. A sock they left behind on Earth back in the day. (Which makes it a pretty old sock.) This just happens to be the very same sock that Steven Ph. Bearlyman lost in a dryer and lead him to discover the parallel dimension he now finds himself in. Think this is a coincidence? It’s not. It’s all a part of a multidimensional plot that now pits Steven up against the Roman Empire. He needs to find this sock before the Romans do or the whole world just might collapse. Grab a copy of The Sock, or Steven Ph. Bearlyman's Adventures in Parallel Dimensions today and discover how the whole history and mystery of the world is—and has always been—about . . . socks.

The Amber Room (Priceless Collection Book #2)


Book Description

In Florian's Gate, T. Davis Bunn introduced his growing readership to the fascinating world of European art and antiques. During months of research, he discovered and pursued the legend of The Amber Room, an ensemble of precious 18th century wall panels that graced a tsarist palace in St. Petersburg. Stolen by Nazi invaders, it was carried off to a castle in East Prussia. Dubbed the "eighth wonder of the world," the treasure was last seen in 1945 during the chaotic scramble of men and borders during the end of the war. Was it destroyed by fire as officials claim, or was it mysteriously hidden away? "Unearthing the mystery" has led T. Davis Bunn to a maze of tunnels under a former Nazi headquarters in Weimar and to concrete SS bunkers in the hills of Jonastal. Reaching back to the ravages of the war, the lessons of faith and forgiveness discovered in Florian's Gate continue in this momentous sequel. Alexander Kantor and his assistant Jeffrey join a trail of intrigue and cover-ups that surround the Amber Room, and it pulls them into a web of deception. A metaphor for spiritual growth, the search for these treasures helps Alexander discover the paradox that greatness in God's eyes is expressed through humility. Jeffrey learns to apply the same zeal with which he hunts for artwork to his quest for the knowledge of God. Together they find a new understanding of human nature and divine love.
