Book Description
As the offspring resume life normally, it's as if they predicted the future. The Dark Realm erupts and slips into reality, plunging the world into permanent darkness. Dark portals open up all around the world, letting loose monsters from within to run rampant and create chaos. With the world turned into another apocalyptic-like state, the offspring and friends embark on another task of figuring out how to save mortal reality. New allies will join their side, and new foes will stand in their way as the offspring journey deeper into dimensions where no mortal has ventured. Reuniting with the Astrals, they learn about the past, and what made it into the present; as well as what the future holds. Gaining new friendships, strengthening the connections between relationships, and obtaining newfound abilities lie in the offsprings' path. Are they willing to make the biggest sacrifice in their life in order to save the people and their home, or is the overwhelming darkness going to consume those who matter most?

Book Description
John Blackmen is the main character who created the genetic code for the Delta Wave frequency in a person’s mind. He built a proto-type device that would influence “control” a person’s mind for 24 hours. The U.S. Government planned to obtain the technology; no matter what the cost! John Blackmen and his wife died in a suspicious car wreck? Embree, his daughter inherits the estate. She discovers her father was a genius, extremely wealthy and was under investigation by the U.S. Government. She read his research note: the “Dark Matter Reactor”. It is the power source. Similar to, but opposite of Nuclear Power. A black ball of energy was trapped inside a platinum webbed sphere. This was in the center of a Highly Compressed Diamond Prism with reinforced titanium braces. Parallel at the top and bottom axis are high-speed rotary spindle with supports connected to the main Astronomical Gravitational Force Gyroscope. Three stationary magnetic arches were positioned to create 3-phase electric motor. Sensitizers controls the manipulation of the particles of light threw the diamonds of the Dark Matter establish the invisible void of atoms genetically coded into a new elemental lattice structure amplified into 3-dimensional state of reconstruction. She placed the notebook in her pocket. Her eyes drifted to the Delta Wave proto-type sitting on the desk. Her mind began to formulate a plan.

There are those among us whose mental capacity is so evolved that they are able to tap into abilities that are beyond this world. Often diagnosed as autistic, these medical marvels have led quiet lives, ignored by science. Until now. One by one, these special "Indigo children" are disappearing and turning up dead. Now a boy handcuffed in a basement awaits his turn while two predators fulfill a mission for a madman. Caring for her own autistic brother, FBI agent Carin Barnes is driven to find the missing boy and hunt down his abductors—psychic twins Adam and Evie. At the command of their father, the pair are collecting children for torturous experiments he believes will lead to the evolution of the human race. But in order to succeed, they need one powerful element…something that Carin and her brother possess…matter that elevates some minds to the highest levels of intelligence—and drags others to the deepest pits of hell.
