Produktbeschreibung
The Horn and the Halo is about an angelic demon who somehow ended up with a halo wedged over one of his horns. His childlike behavior and animated thoughts compel you to see him as a lovable character although he can be very devilish. As Lord Devil begins to plot against Thath, the book transitions to earth, where the Defense Forces (good guys and gals) are protecting the people of earth and the planet itself. The various characters in the military all play a vital role as a team to maintain the balance of the forces, as well as themselves. Each one is a very strong leader to include one of the new recruits. Although this is a fictional book, you might see yourself or someone you know in one or more of the characters. The book starts off in a very melodic poetry format articulated in rhyme similar to that of Dr. Seuss, except Bernards style goes from an urban Ebonics flair and the new and old biblical testament to scientific language, scholarly thought, and of course, his own developed language and grammar. The transitions of word styles and the creativity of the books journey is reminiscent of how we thought when we used to just simply go outside and play. The book is truly a reflection of Bernards freedom to express himself and his mind.

Autorenporträt
Hilbert Bernard Pompey was born June 29, 1963 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was a latch key kid in an urban environment of poverty who was blessed with an amazing mind of creativity, high academic achievement, a caring heart, artistic prowess (especially comic characters) and a curiosity for what lies beyond the universe. His creativity had no boundaries. From designing his own alphabet to establishing his own numbering system, he was simply having fun. Reading entire text books from end to end was light weight for him. Besides, since he was so competitive, he could not allow anyone else to be smarter than him, least of all his teachers. His insatiable appetite for knowledge, learning and applied science made him a genius amongst friends and admired by all. He was selected and listed in the Whos Who among American high school students 1980 1981. In September 1981, Bernard or HB as some called him, began his first semester at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he majored in Aero Space Engineering until he took his life on February 8, 1983. He was 19 years of age. Witting this book was a passion for Bernard.
