Pages : 164
Book Description
This is the only updated version of the book. It has been revised and corrected by its author in 2020.The maturity acquired by the writer over the years, plus his search for greater knowledge, has allowed him to understand in greater depth several topics that he himself had written before in this book, when he only knew the topic "Aliens" from afar, and he was guided more by youthful enthusiasm than by accuracy. Today he writes the same story as before, but from a deeper perspective and a less childish, more realistic and more accurate perspective. This means that the previous versions do not reflect the author's current clarity about the themes that the book addresses. The spirituality it presents is now easier to understand, and even the humor has grown.Omi, a young alien from a more advanced and benign world than ours, is the main character of this book. Translated into twelve languages, it has sold several million copies and continues to reach more people, languages and countries. Why is it so widely distributed?Perhaps because of the joyful words of wisdom and reflection that Omi uses to guide young and not so young people in a confused world: the problem of the climate, the great inequalities, corruption, etc., with their consequent revolts and protests. These are the effects; Omi points to the cause, which is the lack of the inner light that he comes to point out.The book takes us to visit stellar societies superior to ours, and encourages us to produce the necessary changes so that one day we will live without polluted skies and without violence, as in the evolved worlds. These changes must first be made within each one of us. The Fundamental Law of the Universe, which Omi reveals, is the way forward.Enrique Barrios is a Chilean-Venezuelan author living in Spain. He was a tireless traveler, although today he considers that he has already exhausted his quota of trips because has lived in many countries and taken a complete tour around the world.In 1984 he had an inner experience that indicated to him that universal life revolved around what he called "The Fundamental Law of the Universe", and when he saw himself with such an important concept in his hands, without having been a writer, at the age of 39 and in only eight days he wrote "Omi", a book that became an immediate bestseller.In the mouth of the smiling young man of the stars, EB tells us about his discovery."Omi" is a "Long-Seller", a "classic", a "must read", a book of which there are very few: Those that continue to be sold through the years.

A teen girl on a quest to find her long-lost mother finds herself on a journey of self-discovery in Kristy Dallas Alley's moving YA debut, The Ballad of Ami Miles. Raised in isolation at Heavenly Shepherd, her family’s trailer-dealership-turned-survival compound, Ami Miles knows that she was lucky to be born into a place of safety after the old world ended and the chaos began. But when her grandfather brings home a cold-eyed stranger, she realizes that her “destiny” as one of the few females capable of still bearing children isn’t something she’s ready to face. With the help of one of her aunts, she flees the only life she’s ever known and sets off on a quest to find her long-lost mother (and hopefully a mate of her own choosing). But as she journeys, Ami discovers many new things about the world...and about herself.
