According to British legend, as long as there are ravens living in the Tower of London, the monarchy will survive. In Cameron Kent's riveting suspense thriller WHEN THE RAVENS DIE, this legend is about to be challenged. Who's buried in a mysterious unmarked grave in London's St. Bartholomew's Church? And why is the Crown Prince of England so intent on preventing an American professor and a BBC correspondent from uncovering the truth? While prowling through the foggy cemeteries of London in search of his ancestry, Dr. Malcolm Bride stumbles upon the darkest of secrets about Britain's Royal Family. At a time when the Crown Prince is making a bold ploy to seize political power, the American's discovery instantly threatens the British monarchy, and puts Bride's life in mortal danger. Seemingly strayed from the quest for his roots, Bride's relentless pursuit of the truth takes him inside the hallowed walls of Windsor castle, into the clutches of the IRA, across the misted moors of the English countryside, and through the dark labyrinth of London's underground. Bride also finds his way into the lonely heart of a Princess, leaving them both torn between loyalty and love. Steam-rolling to a head-on collision with the future King of England, Bride unravels a mystery of epic proportions-one that could change the course of world history, and alter his life forever.

To the weary mind, overwhelmed by the assault of conflicting world views, there are few prescriptions as effective as a walk on the beach and the Zen of selecting sea shells that speak to one's soul through profound simplicity. Reading Poetic Odyssey II is like that walk on the beach of life and each poem is a shell discovered, a crystallization of experiential wisdom in one concise vision that transcends time and space. Each stanza forms a line, a shape, a color of an experience, of an insight that reaches far beyond its literal value. Through this collection, Don touches the essence of art?when personal experience merges with universal principle. If you are in need of an inspiring moment, and you are unable to fill that prescription of a walk on the beach, this is a book that you will want close at hand. John J. Falone, author of "The Genius Frequency (An Owner?s Manual for the Cosmic Mind)"
