* Episode 1 - Discovering Love
Here begins an epic story that spans eight novels. The

landscape.

* Episode 2A - The
Ice Age Challenge
"The
Ice Age Challenge" refers to the challenge that we face to
create a new foundation for living when the coming Ice Age climate shuts
down most of the world’s agriculture. The resumption of the Ice Age could happen possibly 100 to 150 years from
now. It may take that long to build the vast facilities that will be
needed to feed the world from indoor agriculture. But is our love big
enough that we can achieve the physically near impossible in order to
assure a future for mankind beyond the space of our time? What limits
would we put on the dimension of universal love? It appears we are in a triple
race to meet all of these challenges. The big question is, do we have the skills to stay the course?

* Episode 2B - Roses at Dawn
in an Ice Age World
With the Ice Age resuming 100 to
150 years from now we are challenged to embrace the still rejected
renaissance principle, the Principle of Universal Love, without which
mankind may not survive. But will we able to upgrade our human dimension
sufficiently to accept the Principle of Universal Love and to reflect it
in our daily living? God is Love, universal divine Principle. Do we dare
to love universally in the social domain? Or do we pretend that the
divine Principle of Universal Love, the historic renaissance principle, doesn't apply there, especially when
it comes to our personal loved ones and friends?

Flight Without Limits
(science fiction)
The novel is a science fiction work with a touch of
reality. It is about a space voyage to Alpha Centauri, the nearest solar
system to our own. But in metaphor, the novel is rally about being
able to move mentally without limits. Physically we may never be able to
overcome all limits, but what would hinder us to break all limits
mentally?

Brighter
than the Sun
(playing with nuclear matches)
This novel has two opposite centers. One reflects the
tragic domain of our nuclear armed world, and the second the domain of
spiritual freedom where old axioms become discredited and fall away while
love unfolds its universal face. Will the latter prevail?

The Lord of the
Rings' Metaphors
(political exploration)
It is a rare thing in literature that one finds a tale
written a long time ago that is reflected in the present to such an
extent, that it seems the writer had created a script for the future and
the future has obeyed. Such a thing can be said about the story of J.R.R.
Tolkien's mythical tale, The Lord of the Rings.
