Medieval Scotland, a time of French-speaking Normans occupying the land with Gaelic-speaking Scots, a time of jousts, of miraculous healings at famous sites, and of fairies in the forest. Sixteen-year-old Jenny, the second daughter of a lord, is thrust into the role of the eldest daughter, including marrying well, when her sister Isabel shames the family by sneaking out of her father's house with the intention of marrying a knight. But everything went wrong, and Isabel is back in the family in penance, awaiting her fate - will she have to spend the rest of her life with Cistercian nuns? Jenny is concerned for her sister, who seems to have shut out her entire family. In the meantime, Jenny attracts the attention of a well-placed Scottish family, which has been charged with finding King David's brother, Earl William, a wife. Eager to please her father, she travels to various households, attends jousts, and tries hard to win the Earl's (a well-known womanizer) affection. Yet a strange newcomer, rumoured to have been touched by fairies, has come into her life. Although her father has warned her not to, Jenny can't help visiting the nearby ruined house, where Tam is residing. Tam is unlike any man she has ever met, and she finds herself confiding in him. But Is he helping her or is he having fun with her? And why does she feel so strangely attracted to this man who doesn't seem to be from this life?

The authors of Civilization One return, bringing new evidence about the Moon that will shake up our world. Christopher Knight and Alan Butler realized that the ancient system of geometry they presented in their earlier, breakthrough study works as perfectly for the Moon as it does the Earth. On further investigation, they found a consistent sequence of beautiful integer numbers when looking at every major aspect of the Moon--no such pattern emerges for any other planet or moon in the solar system. In addition, Knight and Butler discovered that the Moon possesses few or no heavy metals and has no core—something that should not be possible. Their persuasive conclusion: if higher life only developed on Earth because the Moon is exactly what it is and where it is, it becomes unreasonable to cling to the idea that the Moon is a natural object. The only question that remains is, who built it?

On the surface, this book is the story of the author's sixty year journey that takes him from the Midwest to Arizona and, finally, to Virginia. An Earthly Journey tells of those who impacted him on his journey. The surface story, though important, is only one piece of the puzzle. The story is also about a dog and higher-dimensional entities, a very special piece of land, and a remarkable woman. It is a love story that began long ago, existing in many lifetimes. It is James's story, and it is Angelica's story, and the book could not exist without both of them. This book is a doorway, a glimpse into a reality which is contrary to third-dimensional conditioning, an example of the possible. It is an invitation for readers to understand their own journeys, to put together all the random events of their lives and find the connections. Ultimately, the book is what you discover it to be, and-hopefully-what it ignites within you.
