Catching Caroline

Can the hunger that thrives in darkness be a love for eternity? Jack Shaw�s reputation as a wicked libertine is well deserved. He lives for the moment, indulging in temporary pleasures.

Will his love be enough to save them both?

The Secret Flower And Other Stories

In an age when cleverness often counts more than substance, the writer of these stories (and poems) offers a break from all the noise. Clement, a teacher, mother and poet, writes with a measured beauty that recalls Tolstoy and Tolkien. There is nothing heavy or stilted about these tales, which rely less on plot devices than on allegorical symbols and the evocation of moods. But there is the thrill of expectancy, a sense that something new is on the way, and the belief that the Someone for whom humanity longs and waits is seeking us, just as we seek Him.

A Mixture of Metals

Born in Society after the War of Restitution, Simora undertakes a voyage of investigation into the faceless forces that control him � to the Southland, to an affair with �barbarian� Mary, and to the Colony gulag. Finally, in the Settlement of the Guardians, he discovers why his mother disappeared. But other questions remain.

Mastering ID

A chance meeting with an enticing woman forces Jacob into a battle with Id, the primal instincts surging within him. As his new nature is revealed, Jacob struggles to understand what he has now become and what he has lost, forever.

Bloody Kansas

The Reverend Jacob Channing is a man on a mission, to abolish the practice of slavery now and for all time. To this end he leads a settlement to the Kansas Territory, but so does a prominent slave-holding Missourian. As John Browns raid sets everyone on edge, the battle for Kansas turns Bloody. This work is essentially a Shakespearean tragedy set in the old west, but is also many other things. It uses this historical setting to explore modern issues, not the least of which is the uneasy relationship between politics and religion. It is hoped that readers will gain both a new perspective on both US History as well as modern events.
