During World War II, the Reverand John Scott Holladay was called upon to serve as a spy. If he accepted the assignment, for their own protection, he could not tell his family for fear that foreign spies would kidnap them in order to turn his loyalty against America. After diligent prayer, he accepted the call to service, giving him an opportunity to save American, Thai, and even Japanese lives.

After the war, he was called to minister in rapidly decaying, crime ridden Cairo, Illinois. His ministry grew his church, built community standards, fought for racial equality, and stood against organized crime. Feeling the pressure of John’s community leadership and losing money, deadly Mafia gangsters plotted to end his life.

StarChaser: A Sci-Fi Adventure Across Space and Time

At the age of seven, Dug Cooperpoly was abducted by aliens who secretly embedded blueprints in his subconscious for building a time-powered starship. Fast forward years later, StarChaser is born, enabling its crew of eleven to travel across galaxies in mere seconds through a process called TimeStamping. The key to time travel is priceless, and dangerous criminal organizations will stop at nothing to get their hands on it. Security Officer Josh Charles and his loyal iBot Sparky face constant threats, from shape-shifters to ruthless crime lords, as they work to protect the ship during its construction.

Prepare for a wild ride:

• Discover alien species that visited Earth over a thousand years ago, playing a crucial role in our evolution, including the creation of the Great Pyramids.
• Journey to the Andromeda galaxy, 2.5 million light years from Earth, to rescue aliens trapped in an alternate dimension.
• Rescue missions to Jupiter’s moon Io and daring escapes from time warps that take the crew back to the Big Bang itself.
• Visit Kepler-442, where life forms have evolved beyond physical bodies.
• Explore underground cities on the frozen planet Trillum-70, too cold to sustain life on its surface.
• Our astrophysicist Kat gives birth to an alien baby.
• We explored the Mandlebrott star system, looking for the return portal to Earth.

The adventure never stops with StarChaser. Our beta reader Susan summed it up perfectly: “The StarChaser crew visits so many different alien worlds, it’s like reading three Sci-fi books in one.” Buckle up for a cosmic journey like no other

If you enjoy a blend of Tom Clancy, style thrillers with just a touch of speculative tech, this is a perfect read. It's smart, fast, and full of heart."

Two unlikely characters meet up in what starts out as a formal set of interviews to uncover some local history. Janey chats with Bill at a local aged care facility to find out about some not too distant history. What she discovers is more akin to a rollicking ride of not just knowledge sharing but some deft wisdom is imparted as well. Janey puts things into action and creates her own wishing stick collection.

"The Wishing Stick & More reads well. The characters are three-dimensional and realistically motivated; the events that happen are realistic, amusing and interesting. The reader certainly wants to know what happens next!"
