Humanity is a race with amnesia, a symptom of physical and psychological trauma. Scars on planet Earth give disturbing testimony of vast upheaval. "The Windows of Heaven" is the 5-novel epic of a past that has been blocked-out of human memory by global trauma. Yet some terrors will not stay forgotten, though our nightmares may wish them to. Some horrors will not stay buried for our own good... "A Broken Paradise" continues the epic through the eyes of a young Seer Clan girl named Tiva, an abused runaway who finds herself drawn into a coven of forest-dwelling outcasts trying to escape the partisan religious conflicts of a dying world. No land is safe anymore on the planet a distant future generation will call "Earth," where ruins crumble in dragon-haunted wastelands that were once thriving civilizations ruled by demigods and titans, and super-technologies in the hands of a power-hungry few drive a build-up for the inevitable mega-war for global mastery. With the exception of Tiva's new friends, everyone else in the isolated land of Akh'Uzan thinks the end of the world is real; and coming soon. Or do they? What happens when the end of the world becomes the lucrative industry of prosperous competing sects, each centered on charismatic personalities with contradictory visions of how to survive it? What happens when the world really is ending, but not quite how anyone expects? What if a dumbed-down society presents the only way to survive as being culturally, religiously, and politically unthinkable? What if the only hope for survival rests with the one man society loves to hate? Living in the fading light of one of the world's last "safe" places, Tiva sees a strange new evil consuming her friends from within, while corruption engulfs her childhood religion, and a brooding terror lurks just beneath the surface of everyday life. What happens in a world of unrivaled beauty and lurking, unbridled horror, when even the best intentions can only produce A Broken Paradise?

Humanity has amnesia, a symptom of physical and psychological trauma. Scars on planet Earth give disturbing testimony of vast upheaval. The Windows of Heaven is the 5-novel epic of a distant blacked-out past. Yet some horrors won't stay buried... The Paladin's Odyssey continues the saga of the Seer Clan's decline in a dying world that once surfaced Earth ages before our own. For U'Sumi, son of A'Nu-Ahki, being the butt of ethnic and religious prejudice is normal. Yet the Seer Clan's rejection of his father as the prophesied Comforter is the least of his problems. In distant Aztlan, the young priestess, Pyra wonders if her horrific nightmares are mere dreams. Aztlan's titans bask in hi-tech indolence over an empire enslaved by hypno-engineered superstition aided by the techno-sorceress Pandura, Pyra's grandmother. Then Pyra discovers terrible secrets under the temple laboratories... U'Sumi faces death on a vast scale when the Seer Clan combats Aztlan's invasion. All his life, his father warned him of the coming World-end. Now horrors of bio-mechanized warfare and gnawing doubts bring harrowing changes to U'Sumi's life when he is trapped inside the abomination of the enemy's most fearsome weapon. Here he discovers the hideous nature of Aztlan's power-a force already running amok and unraveling the very fabric of life on Earth...

Humanity is a race with amnesia, a symptom of physical and psychological trauma. Scars on planet Earth give disturbing testimony of vast upheaval in an earlier age. "The Windows of Heaven" is the 5-novel epic of a past blocked-out of human historical memory. Yet some terrors will not stay forgotten, though our nightmares wish them to. Some horrors will not stay buried for our own good, though we reduce them to children's fables to escape their lingering shadow... "Dawn Apocalypse Rising" begins the saga of the Seer-Prince, A'Nu-Ahki; a man tormented by dark visions and uncertainty, while burdened by failure and a prophetic destiny too big for him. His rapidly changing world faces seduction by powerful beings from somewhere else. Dragons have begun to migrate in odd patterns, while hidden power-plays and the open revolt of the Titans subvert social and religious institutions dating back to the dawn of time. The integrity of A'Nu-Ahki's clan disintegrates, as slander against his mother casts doubt on his own lineage. Global conflict looms-a new form of war made possible by the Earth's abundance and new mechanized techno-sorcery. The Titans of Lumekkor clash with the Giants of the Samyaza Cult, both claiming descent from the new gods. Ancient prophecies come alive, while terrors long dormant shake themselves loose from uneasy slumbers, pulling A'Nu-Ahki into their hungry grip...

Humanity has amnesia. What trauma was so great that it caused an entire race to forget where they came from? In Book V of The Windows of Heaven, the Gate of the Gods promises new hope and a new direction, but instead hurls humanity to the threshold of madness. A tiny civilization grows again in the wake of the global catastrophe, several generations past. A ziggurat under construction broods over settlements that seek the knowledge, power, and comforts of a world their parents saw destroyed by flood and flame. That knowledge still exists, waiting in the sacred cities of Arrata beyond the Mountains of Weeping Stone, for the return of the Sun Ships, which departed a generation ago to explore the chaotic new globe. The Lord of Arrata, and the Haven's keeper, Nimurta, fear the ships are lost with their commander, the Steward-Priest U'Sumi, who survived the global cataclysm in his youth. When a young Khaldi sage discovers a dark conspiracy climbing all the way to the highest levels of the new world's government, he must embark on a treacherous journey to warn the city of his ancestors at the Treasure Cave of Arrata. There, the repository of the previous world's technology awaits the resources needed for the planned rebirth of high civilization. The Conspirators plan for a different kind of rebirth, however, one that uses the old powers to build a world of their own design. Rumors filter in from outlying villages of a strange plague that drives men mad. Dark forces lurk, raving shadows almost alive, which crawl from inner pits of the human heart that only the insane should be able to see and hear...

"The Windows of Heaven" is the 5-novel epic of a past that has been blocked-out of human memory by a global trauma. Yet some horrors will not stay buried for our own good... In Book IV of "The Windows of Heaven," the End begins with angry portents in sky and earth. "The Tides of Nemesis" unleash the trauma that gave the human race its amnesia. One man, one family, and a dying world face a "perfect storm" of asteroid bombardment, global war, civilizational collapse, and a mysterious, rock-splitting radiant force coming up from deep below ground. Yet not even a cataclysm that rips across an entire solar system can reduce humanity to the Stone Age on its own-not without deep need, and careful planning... A'Nu-Ahki's great ship of rescue is finished, and waits in the Valley of Akh'Uzan, where gods, titans, and men converge in a final battle for mastery over the planet that will someday be called, "Earth." Still, all is not as it seems, and as events unfold, it becomes increasingly clear that even this devastating global catastrophe is merely a prelude to something perhaps even more disturbing...
