Eighteen-years ago, Bill Carver chose to surrender his magic to protect his son. He paid the price for that decision with his life. Now Nathan Carver is about to graduate high school and leave behind his hometown forever when his ne'er-do-well Uncle Marty reappears to fulfill a sacred promise. He just wants to attend college and build a life, but Marty promises to show him the world-and reveal his father's magical legacy. Nathan possesses a rare talent - he can maintain the Great Barrier, a mystical shield that is all that stands between the world and the ancient horrors of the universe known as the Old Ones. This legacy means that some will want to control him, and others will want to murder him. Together, Nathan and Marty take a spiritual road trip across the country: the Highway West.

The Future Embodied - An anthology of speculative stories exploring how science and technology might change our bodies and what it means to be human. Imagine what our ancestors a mere hundred years ago would have thought of the modern world. Think of the medical marvels we experience on a daily basis that would have seemed impossible. Recent medical advances have dramatically extended the human life-span to unthinkable lengths. Science has changed how we live in this world. Technology has allowed humanity to dramatically alter our environment, how we communicate, and how we experience life. Imagine now what our descendants might experience. What new trials or tribulations will the future of humanity suffer, or overcome? The final frontier won't be out in space but inside our own bodies. Experience the future as imagined via nineteen powerful voices envisioning what we might become. Including stories from: William F.
