 Across The Parallel

by H.O WARD


Across The Parallel by H.O.WARD 

was published by Partnership Publishing in November 2021.

My thanks to the author for gifting me the book in return for an honest review.




Synopsis

The Eyes Of The Universe are Always Watching You

If you believe, or if you don't .....

Life -

is but a fragile cycle of everlasting consciousness

within the parallels and the order of time,

where all things are known;

past - present - future.

This novel tells the story of George, a conscientious 

Lancaster Bomber pilot, who crosses the parallels of life

and experiences the wisdom of the universe,

the mystery of space-time consciousness and the fraught history of the past...

But what lies ahead in the enigma of his future?




My Review

This is a really interesting and thought provoking book and one that you need to keep an open mind about as you explore what George feels as he crosses the parallels and comes across the concept of out of body experiences. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the questions it provokes whilst picking up the subtleties between the different parallels and also Somewhere 2143 at the end.
The way the book starts with;  'Tao' The Way Of The Universe , and Before The Beginning There Was Wuji straight away has you wondering what happened before the Parallels? What are the links between the different Parallels ? Are there links between the Parallels ? You need to read it for yourself and assimilate your own thoughts as you read this clever book.
It is not a book to rush through but one to take your time over, look at each of the characters in the different parallels and make of them as you will . Don't look for what is not there but accept what is and question your thoughts as you read.
I personally hope H.O. WARD rights more books along this mindset as there are times we all need to read a book that gently, and subtly challenges, or even channels, our thinking.
Everything about the book works. It moves gently between each chapter and Parallel. It gives you subtle hints as you move forwards with the story between the different characters and the description and emotion it creates are just right.
After reading Doris by H.O.WARD, which I thoroughly enjoyed,  Across The Parallel is in a different league and is a book I would recommend you should all read.


About the Author




I'm hooked on writing . . .

It has been a slow start but since retiring I find myself at my desk most days writing one thing or another.

It all began with poetry before writing about a life experience as detailed in my first novel Doris. To write Doris I needed to research the facts and the places in which she found herself and I found this to be most enjoyable to bring history back to life while delivering a realistic fictitious story.

I stuck with historical fiction for my second novel 'Across The Parallel' and added a spiritual aspect to the story that put a whole new spin into the book; released November 2021.

For my third book, for which writing has commenced, I am changing tack and writing a totally fictitious story titled 'Venice Lagoon.'

Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy my books.
Regards . . . H.O.WARD

The Delegate by Ali Carter   What a tangled web she weaved…   The Delegate by Ali Carter was  published on 29th November 2022 by Matador. My thanks to the author and publisher who sent me a copy and Random Book Tours for inviting me to take part on the tour.      Synopsis Charlotte… Having been sprung by Mafia family the Zandini’s on a day release the previous year, and managing to ‘despatch’ one of their enemies in New York (plus a few extras), ex killer G.P> Charlotte Peterson was now securely back inside Rampton high Security Hospital. However, her work was unfinished and a second escape quite out of the question. It was why she had the need of a delegate. A killer to complete a very important job…someone she’d control. Annie… She had found the perfect person in Annie. A woman who felt cheated. A woman who was mentally and emotionally scarred in exactly the same way Charlotte had been throughout her own life. Annie was fully ripe for manipulation in t...

Tristan /Yseulte by Harry Bonelle

 Tristan /Yseulte  by Harry Bonelle Tristan/ Yseult by Harry Bonelle  was published on 31st january 2024 by Unicorn. My thanks to the author and publisher for sending me a copy to review and to Random Things Tours  for inviting me to take part on the tour. Synopsis Tristan/Yseult is a narrative poem about the yearning for oneness in a world split into fragments. A duel on an empty island sets the course for one of the greatest romances ever told. As the lovers of legend meet, something new is born, and something eternal is revealed. Their names will forever be spoken as one. This modern retelling of Tristan and Yseult sheds a stark light on the beauty of the Celtic tale. “Harry Bonelle’s new version taps into the dark and furious energy of the old saga, surging and juddering with life. Bonelle’s actor’s training has encouraged him to liberate the performance piece that its original author must have intended. Thrilling on the page, but even more so spoken loud....

Synopsis My parents chose the Yorkshire Pennines – a tough place to pursue their dream of having their own farm.
