The Guardian of Magic



A thrilling blend between epic and urban fantasy, The Guardian of Magic tells a story of a modern world, much like our own, but with an ancient history filled with magic and legend. 

Yet most deny such a history could ever be true.

Oliver Kapur, a successful politician, is part of a world in 4027 where reality is the only thing worth believing. Where the people no longer believe in magic or the savior that is destined to save the world from calamities every one thousand years. Oliver doesn’t either. He’s never believed magic has ever existed and more than anything, he holds personal hatred for the savior, the Guardian of Magic.

But with the arrival of a mysterious man, everything Oliver thought he knew changes when he’s sent two thousand years to the past. Here magic is commonplace, believed in, and loved. All Oliver wants is to go home and return to his life, where life and reality are painful but make sense. But he has no hope of leaving until he helps win a rising war against darker forces and, to his horror, accept his responsibility as the Guardian of Magic.

Bad Blood



NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER •  NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY: NPR, The New York Times Book ReviewTimeWall Street Journal, Washington Post • The McKinsey Business Book of the Year 

The full inside story of the breathtaking rise and shocking collapse of Theranos, the one-time multibillion-dollar biotech startup founded by Elizabeth Holmes—now the subject of the HBO documentary The Inventor—by the prize-winning journalist who first broke the story and pursued it to the end.

“The story is even crazier than I expected, and I found myself unable to put it down once I started. This book has everything: elaborate scams, corporate intrigue, magazine cover stories, ruined family relationships, and the demise of a company once valued at nearly $10 billion.” —Bill Gates

In 2014, Theranos founder and CEO Elizabeth Holmes was widely seen as the female Steve Jobs: a brilliant Stanford dropout whose startup “unicorn” promised to revolutionize the medical industry with a machine that would make blood testing significantly faster and easier. Backed by investors such as Larry Ellison and Tim Draper, Theranos sold shares in a fundraising round that valued the company at more than $9 billion, putting Holmes’s worth at an estimated $4.7 billion. There was just one problem: The technology didn’t work.

A riveting story of the biggest corporate fraud since Enron, a tale of ambition and hubris set amid the bold promises of Silicon Valley.

The Train Derails in Boston



Rebecca Malone has problems. Not just the alcohol. Not just her husband's inane attempts at writing a bestselling novel, their teenage daughter's promiscuity, or her certifiable mother. Not even her lover, who wants to take her husband's place in Cherrywood Lodge, the famous estate she now calls home. Her biggest issues start the moment she discovers a chest of ancient mahjong tiles in the basement of her new house, causing her life to spin out of control with hallucinations, sexual deviances, and grisly murders. Is the mahjong game haunted? Or are Rebecca's problems part of a different game, started before she was born?

Soul Sessions Vol 1



Though we are made up of three parts, only two of them will live forever. One day we will all receive a new body, but we will never receive a new spirit or soul. The sooner we begin to get it right within, the better we will be. We are tripod beings - three parts: Spirit, Soul and Body. You will always be you. If all we do is pay attention to the “me” we see (our body), and neglect thetwo-thirds of “me” we don’t see, the larger part that we ignore and underestimate (our soul) will ultimately sink us like an iceberg. The sooner we begin to get it right within, the better we will be.

In Soul Session - Volume I, we specifically draw attention to the emotional, habitual and inner negative entanglements (spirits); that are tied to our soul and distort and devalue our lifechoices, attitudes, reactions, and responses. These specific “Soul Ties” disconnect us from ourtruer self as they intertwine to our very nature, manifesting negatively daily in our talk and walk in a variety of fashions.

For many, we experience negative Significant Emotional Events, which over time cause us to develop an Ungodly Belief System of who we are and how we are to behave. We believe the LIE!

These “soul sessions” help you identify the hidden soul ties that influence us and call you/us toaction. It’s time to repent and live a victorious life free from the weights that are so easily besetting you. It’s time to untie your Soul!!

As we get to work on the internal and external part of debunking the “lies of the ties”; you’lltruly understand the urgency in knowing that contrary to popular myths and beliefs, heaven will not turn you into a super saint. We will enter heaven the same person that we were upon leaving the earth, and that person will have to give an account for the stewardship of this life, and suffer consequences or eternal penalties for choosing to live a lie while in bondage on earth. This is also clearly implied in the parables of the Kingdom, the parable of the talents, and the parable of watchfulness.

In Soul Sessions Volume I, you will be challenged to identify and rectify, the “Lies of the Soul Ties.” Then we can REbuild our lives with prosperous souls. Let’s start spendingmore time on our inner man than our outer man for, “physical training is of some value, butgodliness has value for all things, for both the present life and life to come.” (I Timothy 4:8)

“Beloved, I wish above ALL things that you would prosper and be in health even as yourSOUL prospers.” (3 John 2)

My Success is NOT negotiable.... What about yours?
