Summary: Great book
Comment: As their world seems to be unraveling around them, the brothers Owen and Harley Keegan take action. Owen takes his wife and autistic daughter, and flees to the safety of a boat on the ocean. Harley, ever the fighter, decides stay and build a home in this new world. However, neither understands how truly new the world now is. The Earth has moved into a sphere of being, the place where true intelligence exists, and the human mind is coming to grips (or not) with the new reality. Some people gain new powers, but many die. It is a war of all against all...but it's even worse then that, for at the core of the world exists the One. For many cycles, the Earth has belonged to the One, and it has no desire to share it with the upstart newcomers - man.
I must admit to some trepidation when I picked this book up. I read I. Q., also cowritten by John De Lancie, and did not enjoy it. However, what that book tried to be, this book is. Even as the world unravels, the story stays strong and clear. This book keeps you at the edge of your seat, and up all night! I highly recommend this book.

Summary: Soldier of Light, will the Keegan's survive, could you?
Comment: Soldier of Light Review
Interesting dark and dismal concept of what our future might be like, John de Lancie, actor and now writer of "Star Trek I, Q" and better known for his portray of the mischievous "Q" on Star Trek Next Generation teams with Tom Cool, Sci-fi author of "SECRET REALMS" and of "INFECTRESS" do an excellent job in keeping you riveted to the book. The book follows the exploits of the Keegan brothers Harley and particularly Owen who has to try to rescue his family from the all powerful and lord of evil, the One. Can the Keegan's survive and can they defeat the One. Will good trimputh over evil or will the One obliterate mankind?
If you like spine-tingling adventure in our futuristic society, if you want to see a family stretched to it limits and beyond. If you like to see heroes risking all to defeat the evil One and if you like a love story that transcends most romance novels. You need to read "Soldier of Light".
The evil One is out to destroy human kind, as we know it. It will take beings of equal power to beat the One before mankind becomes as extinct as the dinosaurs that the One destroyed.
The book is based a lot on John personal beliefs and his philosophy. You can see a lot of him and his own personal family in the characters of this book. Tom Cool brings a lot of interesting geographical terrains and highly descriptive scenes to the book. If you want to see mind minulapation at it worst being used on the innocent. You need to buy a copy of "Soldier of Light".
I hope they will do an audio book on "Soldier of Light" with John de Lancie as narrator. It would be terrific! Get your copy today, as "Soldier of Light" is an excellent read.

Summary: Interesting entertainment
Comment: The world is no longer the same. However, when the change came it was not nuclear, chemical, or biological. Instead the change was psychic. Most of humanity simply went insane, turning into cesspools of angry rioters. A few became adepts with extra sensory powers to fight to stay human. However, the One plans to destroy all earthlings as it once ended the reign of the dinosaurs for the recently awakened One relishes destruction on a global scale.
Two Bay area siblings Owen and Harley Keegan attain powers to combat the One. As civilization collapses, Harley becomes a knight in shining armor rescuing helpless females from insidious thugs. Owen, accompanied by his wife Kate and their daughter Constance, flee Oakland looking for sanctuary. However, the One begins to entice the two females into the world of evil. Owen knows his fight with the One has turned personal as he will brave hell for his heavenly cause.
SOLDIER OF LIGHT is a strange, action-packed apocalyptic tale that will please die hard fans of the sub-genre. The story line vividly describes a post-apocalyptic world and the action never slows down for a nanosecond. However, the characters never seem genuine nor attain reader empathy (especially the pathetic women) and the One appears more like an under-nourished Galactus. John De Lancie & Tom Cool know how to pack the action, but some readers will remain cool towards this tale.
