Book Cover & Preview Text
The eagle sweeps across the steep slopes of the high escarpment, moonlight painting its wings silver. A sound has caught the great bird’s attention…the sound of someone singing. Alighting on a jagged rock, the eagle turns a bright eye toward the source…a tall cloaked figure standing on a rocky ledge. The majestic bird dips its head. It knows who the singer is. The knowledge is woven into its DNA as it is with all creatures, even human ones. As the eagle listens to the singer’s song, it knows that Change is coming. The great bird settles itself on the rock, to listen…and watch. The Person stares down at the sleeping community. He sees the cloying darkness clouding their souls. A darkness which was implemented and nurtured by the community’s Founder long ago—a cruel man who denied his followers freedom, bound them in chains of oppressive legality and took even their names from them. Yes, change is coming. His song is going to break those soul-destroying chains and turn their lives upside down in a way none of them can possibly imagine!
