the Spaces Between: Unseen Forces That Shape Your Life


Book Description

Prepare yourself for an eye-opening odyssey through magical, metaphysical realities The spaces between... ...Are filled with wonder, spectacle and the unexpected. So says Joseph, the ancient, discarnate spirit communicator in this, the eighth book of his internationally-acclaimed series, as he draws back the heavy curtain of 'reality' to reveal aspects of the world and of our physical and spiritual lives that have remained unnoticed, unseen and unappreciated for countless aeons. Within these pages you will meet the many wondrous expressions of spiritual life, both positive and negative, that co-habit and interact with us on Earth -- hugely influential beings that at worst have been dismissed entirely and at best confined to the realms of folklore and myth as a result of our current fascination with all things material and the glamour of our express-train society. You will also come face to face with and discover the nature of some of the deepest facets of yourself, allowing you to gain greater control over your life and to express and project the noblest aspects of 'you' into the world for your personal benefit, the benefit of all humanity and the good of the planet itself. Prepare yourself for an enlightening, enthralling and sometimes shocking journey through the parallel realms that exist around and within you at this very moment, waiting to once again be recognised and understood. ...By the last page you will be in no doubt that the 'spaces between' -- on Earth, in the heavens and deep within yourself -- are, in fact, anything but.




Vapor Trails


Book Description

Marine Lieutenant Jacob Brown was on borrowed time, and he knew it. He was a rogue element, disobeying orders and pursuing mission goals of his own. His Scout Team had been burned, disavowed by his chain of command and the owner of the stolen ship he was flying was after them to get it back. To make matters even more complicated, the man Jacob had stolen the ship from is an infamous outlaw and mercenary named Jason Burke... his father. Being hunted down by both the United Earth Navy and the mercenary group that called itself Omega Force, Jacob has only one chance to keep his team out of a military prison and bring down the head of the One World terrorist faction that always seemed to be three steps ahead of him... and that was only if his father didn't catch him first.

The Art of Science


Book Description

Did you ever wonder why science is so boring? Maybe scientists are hoping you won’t find out quite how dumb they are… In The Art of Science, Gareth Morgan takes you on a romp through the ivory towers of Academe.With his no-nonsense style, he reveals just what goes on inside the fantastical world of 'scientification', and highlights how everyone could benefit greatly if they were to apply some of the insights and innovations described here for the first time. Is there any truth in the concepts of black holes or relativity? What about the hole in the ozone layer? Why can’t you kill a virus? Why can’t pregnant women get ulcers? Can continents really slide around the globe? How do aeroplanes fly? These are some of the questions this book asks; questions that scientists wish we wouldn’t! Morgan then goes on to propose some solutions to the problems science should have been addressing: How can we get pollution-free energy from the air? How could we build a disease-free environment? How did the people of Peckham get their teenagers to behave? Studies have shown that, when it comes to solving mazes, professors are no smarter than the laboratory rats they work with. Pit yourself against the world’s greatest thinkers and make up your own mind! The Art of Science will almost certainly be the most interesting book you have ever read, exposing much of the nonsense propounded by 20th century science.. It requires no special knowledge of science to enjoy it, and with its entertaining and informal style, it will appeal to any open-minded individual.
