Produktbeschreibung

When life has deceived you, what can you believe? In the rich province of Eastingwold, an ancient aristocratic feud has come to a head, like a good boil, and threatens to overthrow the ruling Grand Duke and condemn his people to a life of unbearable suffering and violent retribution. Arts Professor Kai Kaisonn is unwittingly drawn into the terrifying struggle when he is asked to authenticate a work of art. When his only child Annie is kidnapped because of it, he falls comprehensively and rather inconveniently to pieces. Can he emerge from the dark pit of his breakdown with the strength to find her and bring those responsible to justice before they destroy everything he holds dear? Set on Torquasia, a planet not quite parallel to our own which bears more than a passing likeness to a doughnut, this is a heart warming story of deception, courage and ultimately, the power of a father's love...sprinkled with some funny bits.

Autorenporträt

In 1996, a humble stock clerk, Dave, working for a West Yorkshire distributor of frozen food grew dissatisfied with the extant corpus of paranormal literature - None of which provided answers to his questions. In attempting to gain first-hand knowledge of the supernatural, Dave decided to find a 'genuine' psychic to instruct him in these mysteries. To separate genuine 'Sensitives' from charlatans and other such delusional individuals, Dave devised a simple experiment - He would make a crystal skull and invite anyone claiming possession of paranormal gifts to 'Channel' his creation. The Skully test was hardly rocket science! Dave's skull is either: A - An ancient, quartz crystal skull and 'super computer', possibly carved by aliens stranded on Atlantis, and a powerful supernatural device enabling communication with highly-advanced extraterrestrial and non-corporal entities. B - A plastic toy, less than a year old. The paranormal is a multi-million Pound, global industry. Its practitioners range from amateur Tarot readers advertising in local newspapers, to household name 'celebrity psychics' charging five-figure sums to flex their supernatural muscles. In August 1998, a Press Release requesting assistance from, "genuinely gifted psychics" marked the start of what would become probably the largest paranormal investigation ever undertaken. News of Skully's discovery attracted worldwide interest, curiosity and speculation. In attempting to discover more about the mysterious origins and alleged supernatural properties of this priceless artefact, four thousand respected and renown Sensitives, Mediums and occultists 'Channelled' Skully. None deduced, either by supernatural or other means, it was them and not Dave's creation under investigation. Over the next five years, a story unfolded which quite simply defies belief. Fuelled by a heady wave of New Age hysteria generated in the years leading up to a new millennium, the Skully experiment attracted worldwide interest, incorporating the rare talents of thousands of the most respected Sensitives this planet has to offer. Its results and conclusions are controversial in the extreme and not without cost. This tale is not merely a damning expose of the working practices of professional psychics as a whole. It is also a chilling warning about the very real dangers faced by those who dabble in the murky world of occultism. As Dave and those closely associated with the Skully experiment discovered
