Fantastic Worlds Anthology is made up of three books. Each book has as its setting new and strange fantasy worlds. Some of these worlds are states of consciousness such as dreams and delirium. Other worlds are worlds in the fictional past or the distant future or in distant lands or imaginary planets.Here are my fantastic worlds. The Brain in a Vat is the first of three books in The Luna Cult Chronicles. A new religious cult is sweeping the nation. Tom, a Chicago reporter, is investigating the cult for its terrorist ties. The worship of the goddess Luna is attracting Julie, his girl friend. Intrigue in Asia and the Middle East that threatens to plunge the world into another world war entangles them. Their curiosity leads Tom and Julie to a laboratory of human heads in glass jars. Global Extinction The cult is now facing its greatest challenge along with the rest of the world. A comet the size of the moon will destroy the Earth in a month. Julie and her fifteen year-old daughter Selene travel from Michigan to Washington, D.C., confronting along the way rape, cannibalism, child sacrifice, and radiation poisoning. The War of the Hybrids It's the year 2041 with moon colonies and space travel. Julie is now the leader of the cult and her daughter Selene is a twenty-five year old West Point graduate, the wife of Bill, a Moslem, who also graduated from West Point. The last world war has reached its climax as animal-human hybrids exterminate humanity. The political psycho-drama Red Mercury Rising is my next book.The Second American Civil War has broken out. The United States is no more. It is split into two countries. Dakota is in a death struggle with Pacifica and Dakota is losing. Stella Johnson is on a race to find the red mercury bomb to deliver final victory. But her psychotic brother Billy is never far away. Stella must get the deadly substance before Pacifica launches its final battle before her treacherous brother kills her.My final book is Susan of Neverland.Susan, her sister Wendy, and her brother Peter went to Neverland when they were children. They had many adventures and later returned to England. Peter and Wendy died in a car crash a few years later. The decades passed. Susan is now eighty. Her twelve-year-old granddaughter Pauline is the only person who brings joy to her life. Pauline is struggling with bullies, the divorce of her parents, and with self-doubt. But now they're on the brink of new adventures. You'll meet Loki the lemur, Charles the cat, Billy the orphan boy, Rex the winged lion, Rex's twin sister the Red Witch, and others as the destruction of Neverland looms.
