The KIVA Chronicles Volume 2 continues with more of Sonny Boy's odyssey. The overall story is a mystery that is woven and unraveled through many adventures ending with extensive art studies in Europe. The KIVA Chronicles reveal the mystery through a series of gatherings called KIVAs that provide not only narrative and dialogue among and between animals, but also provides portals to the realm of the living. Thus, much like the indigenous communities of North America, the KIVA is a gathering place where the physical and spiritual realms intertwine over space and time revealed through portals of reality. The animals are the pets that lived with and served the boy during his life.The pets continue to provide the KIVA discussions in extensive narratives of European art, architecture, hippies, Cold War and Vietnam war history. These are all woven together through the physical and spectral realms revealed with the orb crystal changes at the gatherings. The Animals again relate the intermittently fantastical, factual, suspenseful, and semi-autobiographical story of Sonny Boy's travels, interesting encounters, and advanced art studies in Western Europe during the '70's. The overall story is a mystery that is woven and unravels through the happenings in Europe. *WARNING!* The Second Chapter may contain graphic sexual language.

"Egypt James is a beautiful African American girl, who has attended private school all her life. In addition, she becomes a debutante and needs her father to dance with her at the cotillion ball -- The Father/ Daughter Dance. But, her mother kicked him out of the house after she found out that he was part of the LD03, an organization actively engaged in the human trafficking business, and other illegal activities. Egypt wants to befriend William, a member of the LD03, to help locate her father. William Harris is originally from Philadelphia, where the schools were so bad that his father decided to send him to Atlanta to get a better education. Not only that, his father cannot accept the fact that his son is gay. Shipping him off to Atlanta helps him keep up his 'street credit' from the LD03 gang members on the streets of 'Philly.' Yet, William is determined to gain his father's approval. Egypt meets William while 'Working the Corner' for the Eastside High School band in front of the school; he donates 20 dollars to the organization. She thinks that he is fine and would be the perfect boyfriend. She thinks that his affiliation with the gang can help her find her father and she decides to pursue a relationship with the young man. Her involvement with William brings her closer to her father. Yet, the stress of the relationship; being dumped at Christmas, learning that William is a homosexual, being accused of having an affair with a teacher, and thinking that she has AIDS causes Egypt to go into labor prematurely and gives birth to a preemie, Baby James. Egypt is a dedicated mother and attentive to Baby James at the prenatal center, but her mother convinces her to take a break to attend the cotillion ball. Her father shows up unexpectedly at the event and dances with Egypt; she feels like a princess during the Father/Daughter Dance. Egypt finds the strength to help the police set up a sting that brings down the LD03 and William."--Provided by publisher.

Based around actual events, Storm Cloud Rising follows the efforts of three dedicated Special Operations soldiers battling through a growing web of lies on the part of their superiors. Developed to work deep undercover, their mission was to find four terrorists operating on American soil who were partly responsible for 9/11 and prepare to bring them to justice, only to receive orders, eliminate without delay. The Storm Cloud team had in their hands a cell of ruthless professionals who held in their hearts the darkest secrets about 9/11. Incredibly no one at the top was interested in interrogating them, but the men of Storm Cloud wanted answers, and the answers they uncovered brought them face to face with an alarming truth. Storm Cloud Rising is both a heart wrenching account of how these three dedicated young soldiers sacrificed everything trying to expose the truth, and a cautionary tale of political power showing the lengths to which a government will go to keep its secrets hidden from the light of day.
