Out Now for Kindle Devine Retribution has been revised and is now available on Amazon for the kindle. This thriller is your worst nightmare. Fantastic News At last! The author is finally releasing Haven and the Soul Keepers. Either click on the book cover shown on the right, or click on the book title button on the left to see all the exciting details of this fantastic series. The author began this monumental project in 1995 and is still writing them. Fact is stranger than fiction. Belief is all you need.   The humble owl has been singled out for intense myths and legends since man first saw one. Different countries and cultures, even tribes, have provided their own interpretations of the good or bad omens for which the owl is responsible. Athene's association with an owl has meant the bird is endowed with wisdom. Greeks loved the owl because seeing one before a battle meant victory, while the Romans believed the omen meant defeat. Hearing the hoot meant various things depending on the culture and the number of hoots heard. Generally though, the sound meant imminent death, while blessing an unborn child in Welsh mythology. Sickness and loss of virginity are other meanings, while dreaming of one could mean a shipwreck. Many North American Indians believed the owl was the spirit of the living or recently departed, and so respected the bird. They were not the only ones to have stories of how the owl became a night bird, or came into existence. Some stories relate to individual species. Other cultures believe that eating the meat, or the eyes, give certain powers. The French treated the owl as vermin until recently, although many have seen the benefits of using them to keep the rodent population down. Yes, their predatory forward facing eyes do give an impression of inscutable hate, but no more so than your pet cat. So, are owls evil or good? Or are they simply another bird, a living creature as numerous as the stories and beliefs about them? Perhaps Alan should write a story about the Inspired Worlds owl sometime.    The Wordsmith pages will be extended to include many topics of writing, including many sciences the author uses, or uses for reference, in his stories. Many of his book pages now include a short review of how he came to write the story. The characters, and their worlds, become alive under his light touch on the computer keys. Most books are, or will be, available in many formats, including hardback, paperback, epub, pdf, and kindle. Visit the Author's page on Amazon, Facebook and Authorsden.
