PROPHETS OF MARS spans a period shortly after humanity has established several colonies on Luna and a large base on Mars. A massive space structure, "The ARC," encircles the Earth. There has been a manned expedition to Venus. Space is now a local frontier.
Despite scientific advances, a global anti-scientific movement called ‘Earth First’ has influenced the policies of most governments, prompting them to turn their backs on the stars now. Earth First was also the driving force behind a document known as the Universal Codex of Truth. A joint statement from authoritarian governments, political entities, and adherents of various faiths aimed at creating what they consider an acceptable society. That led to the marginalization of many individual and social elements.
As such, Luna has been abandoned, and the Mars colony has to support itself without aid from Earth. Throughout all of this, a corporation, RCI, has been working on several projects in the dark places: methods to terraform Mars, clinical immortality, and the control and adaptation of the unique gifts found in L-GEP children, children conceived and born in low-gravity environments.
Daily life on Mars is never routine. Accidental deaths can be expected, but a significant number of betrayals and murders make daily life more exceptional.
THE WHITE is a novel about Humanity, the Fae, and the Gods. Thousands of years ago, mankind and the Fae shared the Earth. The Fae grew fearful of humanity. They feared our numbers, declared war, and attempted to destroy us. The Gods intervened on our behalf and created a new realm for the Fae, but the Fae were not satisfied with that.
Vester Broten, an architecture professor, travels to a great void known as ‘the White,’ the space between the three separate planes of life. From there, he enters Godland and is taken by the ancient Goddess Anahita, who mentors and guides him on his journey through Godland.
Godland is an endless plane where all the Gods ever worshipped exist. But Gods are only as powerful as the power of those who believe in them. There are also lost gods, the forgotten gods, those whose names are no longer spoken or known; they are known as the Greys, and they resent mankind for forgetting them. Back on Earth, in his efforts to warn the world of the danger posed by the Fae and explain the nature of all Gods, he is introduced to a secret society and appointed a special advisor to Pope Constantine. In addition to Anahita helping him, Isis and Mars also accompany him on Earth. -- Let the God War begin.
THE REALMS… continues to follow the life of Vester Broten, Moselle Norris, and others, including the Pope, the Goddess Isis, the Goddess Ana hita, and the Gods Mars and Huitzilopochtli, across the world, from the ornate halls of the Vatican to the underground ruins of the temples of Mexico City… A tent on a hill in the ancient kingdom of Elam. To the mountainside cave, on Crete, where the infant Zeus was hidden.
In Book One: THE WHITE, The Trials of Vester Broten, Broten had travelled to the Land of the Gods. "Godland," and discovered the unknown history of Humanity. Now, to avoid the imminent extinction of Mankind, Broten and others must take the fight to the Fae Kingdom. But is the price of the fight too high?
From the scenes of a midnight escape to Italy on a private yacht, to that of Pope Constantine, leading a crowd of more than one hundred thousand people in Azteca Stadium in a cheer to empower pagan gods. We must win in the three-sided conflict between the Gods, the Fae and Humanity. For the first time since it was stolen more than 50,000 years ago, we must reclaim our birthright once and for all.
The Realms bring the fight to the Fae.
