The Road to Kedarnath

 


The Road to Kedarnath:

Everyone is entitled to improbable gifts of grace 


An inspiring story about a man's journey to spiritual enlightenment and selfdiscovery!

Arjuna, a young man from India comes to the USA to study, falls in love with an American girl and marries her against the wishes of his conservative parents, thereby alienating them. He blames his wife for his rift with his parents.

In a moment of irrational anger, he causes the death of his pregnant wife. Filled with remorse, he returns to India to make amends.

Driven by inner demons, he abandons everything and becomes a mendicant. For three years he is a beggar, a madman, a renunciate, and as fate would have it, a thief and murderer.

In his journeys, he consoles an old man on his deathbed, rescues a little girl from a sexual predator, and helps a young woman escape a rapist ‘god-man’.

But a series of unexpected experiences convince him to commit suicide at a place near the holy Kedarnath templehoping to be absolved from his sins and released from rebirth.

There he is saved by Krishna, an enlightened tea-seller, who lives alone in a mountain cave during the brutal winters of Kedarnath.

Arjuna stays at Krishna’s cave that winter, and what follows is six months of spiritual metamorphosis and selfforgiveness.

Arjuna discovers the healing power of choices, and realizes that by helping those he did, he is on the path of atonement.

Are you ready to choose to leave behind your past and carve out a meaningful future?

True Winter

  


True Winter

(A Series of Four Seasons Book 1)


Five hundred years ago, a deadly artifact called the Chains of Peter was stolen. Now, the chains have resurfaced in Mobile, Alabama, and the House of David, a secret organization that specializes in securing dangerous artifacts, has sent its most lethal operative to find them.


Judge Eden Dowler is all but certain the wealthy Bachman family is hiding the chains, and he has a win/win plan for securing them. As it happens, the Bachmans’ youngest son, Orion, is Eden’s estranged half-brother. All Eden has to do is convince his brother to join the House of David, and the chains are as good as his. Orion Bachman is the perfect candidate—loyal, intelligent, fit, and eager—and Eden is certain his brother’s healthy upbringing will benefit the House, which usually only recruits broken children.

There’s just one problem. A mysterious counter organization known as Seditio will stop at nothing to keep the House from securing the chains. When Seditio sets its sights on the Bachman family, Eden realizes the stakes have become personal. But what’s the best way to protect Orion? Should Eden train him to fight and kill, or guard Orion’s innocence so he doesn’t become one more broken soul in the House of David?

As the House continues its bloody search for artifacts, Eden begins to question its integrity and the role he plays within it. Unfortunately, Orion is beginning to question everything else, including whether he should have ever put his faith in someone like Eden Dowler.

Tokyo-ing!

 




 Tokyo-ing! is an apt title for this trio of tales that chime with anyone even slightly interested in Asia’s most dynamic metropolis and its glazing of layers – be they cultural, sexual … or taking-wing exuberant.

About Face — An American professor is trophy hunted by a wily student who then boasts of her conquest, sparking a full-blown scandal. Brought to heel in tradition, he fights for his dignity.
Sobering Love — A Japanese career woman is obligated to join after-work drinking sessions with her colleagues, leading to alcohol addiction and deteriorating health. There seems to be no way out, until she meets Frank, a high-octane executive ...
Fire Horse — A disillusioned expat musters the courage to break out of an unhappy marriage, then searches for love on Tokyo’s electrifying singles circuit. Can he beat the odds and find a soulmate born under the right star?







About the Author

Eric Madeen is an associate professor of literature at Tokyo City University and award-winning, unclassifiable author of six books. His writings have been published widely, from Time to Asia Week.

The Human Entanglement

 




The Human Entanglement
The future. Generations after vast nuclear wars have viciously dragged the whole of Earth to the brink of death, the human species is still recovering. The first and most advanced society since, the Caradrium, uses a silent democracy as its unique and novel method of leadership. A political system that exalts the precepts of anonymity, intent, and choice in the hopes of rebuilding humanity from the ashes and avoiding a repeat catastrophe.

Yet a single obscure murder threatens to undermine this lone beacon of stability. Only an unassuming citizen, Taryn Steno, a laid-off widowed mother of two, fresh to the leadership ranks, may have a chance at stopping it. First she must contend with an enigmatic counterpart, known as Aurelius, to decide how much truth behind this mysterious murder she is willing to uncover. For every new detail brings not only more danger, but also draws Taryn closer to a revelation that could shake the core of humanity’s last hope of a better civilization.

Read the stand-alone, super novel debut of L.P Magnus: a distinctive and wholly unique science-fiction plot, interweaving themes of the human condition, artificial intelligence, technology, philosophy, politics and power.

Perfect for fans of Blade-runner, Children of Men, Gattaca, Star Trek TNG/DS9, Twilight Zone, Isaac Asimov and all the other stories inspiring debate on what humanity is, regardless of its form.









Butterflies and Paratroopers Are Not Born with Wings

         


Butterflies and Paratroopers

Are Not Born with Wings


What’s it about? It’s a book for women warriors. Those who refuse to give up on getting clean, sober, abstinent, and free.


This is not a regurgitated recovery book. First, it’s funny. Second, it’s one-of-a-kind. Third, it’s not a self-help book. It’s an operator’s manual for alcoholics, Al-Anon, drug addicts, codependents, overeaters, and whoever else has an addictive personality with a smidge of OCD or a dusting of ADHD.


With an iron fist in a velvet glove, Butterflies and Paratroopers is written with wit and sarcasm, Milo lays out the clear-cut simple directions to operate the most complex, out-of-warranty, prone to breakdown piece of equipment ever made—that’s you. “We used to think one way, and now we think another.”


Using amusing “girl snippets” and “recovery war stories”, Milo connects real life trials, tribulations, pandemonium and predicaments with spirituality, sobriety, sanity, and serenity. You’ll quickly see that twelve-step recovery programs will take anyone who walks through the door, and have a wrench to fit any nut that does.


With humor and encouragement Milo describes a program of action, design for living, and process of recovery that seems to work with people like us. And who are people like us? We are the ones who have tried everything else.

About the Author

Milo has more than thirty-three years of continuous sobriety. He received a Master’s Degree in Public Administration from the University of New Hampshire and a Certificate of Graduate Studies from Harvard. He completed the Addiction Counselor Education Program at Boston University. Now as a retired, old, tired, bald, grumpy, and dumpy guy he shuffles between New Hampshire and Texas with his Irish Setter Madaline.
