Light : Eric Rendel
Light
And God Said Let There Be LIGHT – And There Was LIGHT. But what was the LIGHT and what came before the LIGHT? Jake Tranton journeys through the seven Earths of Jewish mythology searching for the answers to this riddle and he discovers that before the creation of Heaven and Earth something else was created – something else that was dark and evil and had no business to exist but exist it did and its existence is the antithesis of everything else in creation. It is an evil so dark that it can mould your mind to its thoughts and make you see and do what it wants however horrific. It is an evil so dark that not even a demon can withstand it. Can Jake stand up to the horror that is unleashed and take on this force of total evil to fulfil his Destiny? Only by harnessing God’s true Light can he hope to prevail but that Light is a force that no man may see and live.
Eric Rendel’s novel is the first fantasy that employs authentic Jewish mythology sourced from the Midrash and Kabbalah and with characters from the modern Jewish world and will provide the reader with an insight into the world of orthodox Judaism.

Guardians of the Crystals : K.D. Martel
Guardians of the Crystals: The Osirion Connection
Fourteen years following the Great Flood that destroyed the continent of Atlantis, the survivors of that mighty civilization have recreated their flourishing society once again in the beautiful land of Mayach. Deanu, an Atlantean, is the Guardian of the Crystals, a name given to those Atlanteans who carry the genetic marker that allows them to create a symbiotic exchange with the Power Crystal entities.
The Power Crystals are an ancient sentient energy source that originated from the Pleiadian star system, home to the ancestors of the Atlanteans that left their dying planet to colonize Earth over a thousand years ago. The Crystals power everything in the Atlantean civilization, from their normal every day electrical appliances, to their space faring ships.
The Atlanteans also share the Earth with the Osirion, a highly advanced, war-like race of humanoids from the Orion constellation. The two races are on amicable terms, keeping a distance from each other. The Osirion settled upon the Earth hundreds of thousands of years before the Atlanteans, yet their technology is not as sophisticated as the Atlanteans.
An Osirion, named Enkarath, a young engineer from the land of Kemet, visits the Atlanteans to enlist their aid in helping him create a new energy source for his civilization. With much hesitation from the Atlantean Elders, an agreement is reached for Deanu to help Enkarath establish a new power source for his people.
Unfortunately, the technology falls into the hands of a rebel Osirion faction from the red planet, Lahmu, who want to posses the Crystal technology for their own ends including war. Deanu and Enkarath are in a race against time to save their civilizations and the Earth from destruction. Enkarath discovers his true heritage and link to the Power Crystals and to the beautiful Atlantean woman that steals his heart….

Going Below The Water’s Edge : Ronald Fehribach
Going Below The Water’s Edge
GOING BELOW THE WATER’S EDGE To an observer looking upon the water’s surface, most of an iceberg is below the water and cannot be seen. An iceberg may have eight or nine times as much ice below the water’s edge as there is above. After the military, I had plenty of military benefits to enable me to get a masters degree. I chose the area of psychology. The degree was not as important as the reason why I chose that route.
Remember that plane crash? Well, it was during a time of many other deaths. The body had been thrown through the propellers and diced up like meat at the supermarket rack. As the police body-bagged the person, I watched the dogs feed on many of the scattered remains. Approximately one year after this incident, I was flying in a plane out of Ohio. The lights flickered on and off and the pilot told the passengers not to worry. Next the engines began to reeve. Then all became deathly quiet. We were going down! As we prepared for a crash, I sat back in my seat as my life passed before me in quick flashes than in longer segments. To our benefit, I looked out the window and saw the ground approaching and the welcomed sight of ambulances and fire trucks scattered around the runway. We glided down the airport runway — we made it! The flight was later being booked to another plane, but I had enough of flying for that day and instead took a car home.
The hell had been scared out of me. The last plane crash I had witnessed made me totally aware of the potential dangers that existed, yet, the fears that I experienced during that flight opened a totally new area of awareness in me such as being fully aware that mentally we were more than the current moment: Mentally, we are like an iceberg wherein only the tip is above the water and somewhat understood. Below the water lies a mass of which we are almost not even aware of – yet it is the mass that often moves us.
Even though I’d often experienced tremendous pressures and endured unexpected crises, it took this crisis to bring about extreme pressure and fear to make me aware of its existence.
By the time I’d hit my late twenties, I’d explored much of the world’s geographical areas and observed varied social cultures. It was my desire to look behind the scenes whereby I gained an insight into understanding situations that most people have difficulty relating to. I scuba dived to explore oceans and had been sucked out of jets in airborne military exercises. Yet, the greatest exploration and adventure was awaiting — the journey into the inner self. Or as to the iceberg comparison – GOING BELOW THE WATER’S EDGE.
