When President Linda Travis is briefed at gunpoint and told of the human-alien conspiracy that secretly controls her government, she does something none of her predecessors dared to do: she runs. During the chase that ensues, from the rural mountains of Vermont to the arctic wilderness of Bathurst Island, through the underground blackness of the aliens’ Ottawa Lodge to the bewildering landscapes of the astral realm, Linda encounters both obstacles and aid where she least expects them. Along the way, she is forced to face fully the converging crises of energy, economy, and environment that threaten the entire world, and to confront deep assumptions about the nature of reality itself. Only by doing so is she able to see clearly what she must do to help her people.
ALL OF THE ABOVE is a sci-fi/conspiracy thriller, reflecting the stresses and urgencies of the near future, as the oil sputters, the dollar dwindles, the climate careens, and the geopolitical landscape lurches underfoot. ALL OF THE ABOVE is a different sort of love story, exploring how the human heart can guide us through challenging times. ALL OF THE ABOVE is a journey to a possible next paradigm, an adventure with one foot planted in the current worldview of separation and materialism and the other foot taking tentative steps into a conscious universe of connection and collaboration.
ALL OF THE ABOVE is Book One of the NONE SO BLIND series, which follows President Linda Travis and Cole Thomas across the decades and through the Cosmos. Confronted with the collapse of the global industrial culture into which they were born, and stripped of their fundamental expectations and beliefs by the revelatory activities of alien intelligences, Cole and Linda embark on a spiritual journey through our own near-future, seeking a sane and mature response to the great challenges of our time. The story will continue in Book Two, RUMI'S FIELD, in which Linda attempts to lead her people off the road to extinction and down a new path she cannot even see, toward a destination found on no map yet made. The secret conspirators may not allow her to succeed. And the aliens will only wait so long before they intervene. The story will conclude in Book Three, IMBOLC, as Cole and Linda plant the seeds for a new paradigm in the scarred and frozen soil of a very different Earth.
