Book Description
When Redemption Becomes Obsession Delaware restaurateur and crime-fiction fanatic Christian Stone isn't generally superstitious, but a simple ritual has helped him overcome his fear of flying: he must always sit in seat 3A. He's traveling from Philadelphia to Miami when, during takeoff, he looks out the window and spots what appears to be a dead body lying on the banks of the Schuylkill River. A childhood memory resurfaces: when Christian was eleven years old, his best friend was murdered, and the killers were never punished. As a child, he was powerless to seek justice‚ but he isn’t a child anymore. By the time his plane lands in Miami, he’s booked a ticket on the next available return flight. Back in Philadelphia, he heads straight for the banks of the Schuylkill, where he uncovers more questions than answers. Ignoring his daily responsibilities, Christian spends every waking moment following the trail through gambling rings, mysterious fortunes, and rumored mob ties. But when his hunt places him in the crosshairs of a sinister underground crime syndicate, he uncovers a truth that hits closer to home than he could have imagined.

Why does Pilgrims Passage matter? Why can greed and deceit still manipulate us? Why do people choose power over family? Working to address these questions and more, Pilgrims Passage: Into a New Millennium and Rebuilding the Past are journeys brimming with adventures through turbulent times during the transition into the twenty-first century. For Paul Bardeck and Claudia Weiss, discovering a thousand-year-old monks journal fuels their quest to rebuild a mysterious ancient monastery perched upon the foothills in the Slovakian High Tatras, with the promise of releasing boundless energy stored within ancient ruins, as well as the Book of ONE. Concurrently, Karl Vlodas seemingly unquenchable thirst for wealth and power, fueled by the Black Star Pacts dark energy, seems to make the quest for ancient truths a sideshow. As the pilgrims paths entangle, will the promise of timely truths finally come to light? Does standing against the powers of darkness really matter today?

Book Description
Upon presenting copies of my book “what if? The Question or a Statement” to my friends, I asked for their comments, and I have included some of them in the opening of this book. I quote part of the comment from Winfield which has hit home. “Hey Rich. Congratulation on the for book, it brings back memories, you asked for comments on the script, well I can tell you that the story presentation and the way it was writte4n is pure Richard...People who do not know you.. . Need to know you first... I think you have enough material about you, your family and your works... be separated into two books. My take.” This confirmed my initial thoughts. After starting my book, not to dwell on my personal life it was autobiographical and my involvement in the building of a new church. This book is an expanded version of my daily life, works, and D.I.Y. projects as I travel the path.

Pages : 287
Book Description
This fast paced adventure is like The Bible Code meets The Chariots of the Gods. It weaves together the fascinating themes of ancient astronauts, angel visitations, hidden Bible codes and end time prophecies, with an international conspiracy thrown in. The story follows the quest of cynical lawyer John Marshall to locate the Tree of Knowledge and then to pass on the key to it to the one called the Son of Man. Marshall unwittingly becomes the last custodian of the key when he tries to come to the rescue of an elderly Eastern wise man. He teams up with fellow American, evangelist and one time Middle Eastern linguistic expert, Marc Arnold. Arnold ropes in the assistance of longtime friend, Kirsty Gordon, a Scottish aristocrat and archaeologist. Their quest across three continents is thwarted by dark forces apparently hell bent on grasping the key from them for an as yet unknown nefarious purpose. The key is an ancient artefact that guides and gives access to a subterranean installation. This is the remnant of a long lost civilization, of which the Atlantians were a part. Modern technology has not yet caught up with that of the ancients, which ultimately contributed towards their downfall. The installation, located in the bowels of a Nepalese mountain, houses an arsenal of futuristic flying craft of the sort mistakenly labelled as UFOs. It is also the repository of an electronic archive of the long forgotten past, shades of which were captured in myth, folklore and religion, known as the Tree of Knowledge... Through the centuries, various historical characters including the Chinese strategist Sun Tzu (author of the Art of War), Nostradamus and Hitler have gained access to the Tree of Knowledge. What they learnt changed the destiny of mankind and provided a peek into the future. Will the trio find the Tree of Knowledge and identify and locate the Messiah in time to thwart the Antichrist and save the Earth from the immense meteorite storm that is on a collision course with it? The final countdown has commenced.
