The book is about the passion of being involved with the fifth civilization of humankind at a very auspicious fractal tier. Since a recent rounding of a tiny solar system around the equatorial belt of a familiar galaxy, one might say in perspective, the method of rational soul has begun a journey back to a first time. It had actually been documented by ancients of Egypt, Maya, and Khmer. An experiential situation of contribution to dark chaos of possibility by each citizen is again reinforced.

The suggestion within the title accurately sums up the direction that the author has taken with the character story and allegory of the second book. The extremely unique and gifted characters of the Carpadia legend have journeyed to the Skeletal Coast of Africa in order to bear witness to the birth of a savior. She will usher in the Fifth Civilization of mankind but these followers of that cause are not yet spiritually sufficient. Toward Carpatian Divinity quickly begins to outline the direction that these disciples will realize in travels and inner sanctum. The chapters are organized as parables and each is a message within the broad communication of integrity and moral code. The tools and locations of these metaphysical errands are as diverse and novel as the entire imaginative spectrum. Holoflux becomes a hive in the creative process of transmigration as it develops from the witchery of a coven of white Wiccans. Claire is introduced as the beautiful and fragile recipient of a powerful Magnolia vision that spins away phenomenal debris. She is left with the stationary, ancient and unfaltering soul of her matriarchal line and gives that hearts desire to Dneipo. The Mystic aboriginal sorcerers become entangled in the source helix of the manifest and are able to cross time and space. Intent is described as a pawl designed to catch in the ratchet of moment discontinuity. Ron and Vani play a chess-like game as pawns able to capture the most superior concepts and Vanisila maintains her earthly presence as a Valkyrie and bypasses the aging process. The parables continue, bringing insight and awareness to the characters. The final chapter is a eulogy praising the spiritual enlightenment of the illuminati as it opens with We now become Divine Carpatians.

The author is speaking about the way, method or "apparatus" of soul and its infusion with the human condition. Worship as achieved aesthetically embellishes Dark chaos energy of possibility. A familiar nuclear furnace is allegorically used to describe spiritual emergence. The narrative may at times read like a scientific handbook of the life force known as "soul." Perpetuity principle is introduced and the "purpose" of humankind is unveiled.

A familiar nuclear furnace is used to describe spiritual emergence. The narrative may at times read like a scientific handbook of the life force known as soul. The idea of divinity is spoken of quite often but, as a dark force, has nothing to do with religion. The G-word is used, and it is hoped that a readers sophistication with the series realizes it as a kind of abbreviation. Perpetuity principle is introduced, and the purpose of humankind is unveiled. Establishing oneself as a citizen of the fifth civilization of humankind is emphasized, and via audition, prayer contribution completes the reason for experiential circumstance. As a deviation from any form, this title is not for a casual reader in a waiting room or idling away an afternoon. A reader should be familiar with the previous titles and may even be in pursuit of a citizenry in the fifth civilization. In a category of spiritual adventure, an audience might be seeking, searching, or attempting to unveil the true name of their hearts desire. Key words are spiritual adventure, directive of soul, or true hearts desire.

The three titles, Carpadia, Toward Carpatian Divinity, and Carpadiem Dark, are drawn from a deep sense of quantum, sufi-gnostic unity displaying provenance throughout the Homeric Path of those who would contribute. Michael considers these brief narratives as considerable descriptions of the human condition. His research and soul evaluation, literary investigation, and imaginative allegoric style and again, very important, passion, have opened a gate of soul adventure. Carpadiem Dark is a simple situation that suggests the presence of a dark divine influence in the corner of every moment experienced by a rational organic. God is not light, which is visibleperhaps the spark so often spoken ofbut the reservoir must be an unknowable dark unity of chaos possibility from which anything and everything may be fashioned.

Talbot Street is a contemporary literary novel with mainstream appeal which explores the subjects of love, fidelity, death, and disease through the mysterious and long-standing friendship of its two major characters, Nick and Johnnie R. The action unfolds in the present through a series of flashbacks by the narrator, Nick, as he sits at the bedside of the dying Johnnie R. As Nick reminisces, the novel fluctuates between present and past as Johnnie R. slowly dies of AIDS, and the mysterious facts surrounding their break of eight years earlier are divulged as the novel progresses with each new flashback. With the help of Johnnie R.'s journal of poems, anecdotes, and explorations, the narrator's powerful ruminations pull the reader well beyond the death at hand and through the emotional and gripping wake of a passionate friendship spanning twenty years, two continents, and the interstices of the human soul. Nick, the southern narrator, is a highly introspective man in his mid-thirties who returns to Indianapolis in December of 1991 at the request of his dying friend, Johnnie R. Nick is heterosexual and Johnnie R. is bisexual. They first met at Princeton, separated upon graduation as Nick took up his expatriate career in the Foreign Service and reunited five years later in Indianapolis where Nick was drawn into the nightmarish realm of Johnnie R.'s married and professional banker's life. Caught in the webs of Johnnie R.'s endless social and professional intrigues, Nick also met and fell in love with Johnnie R.'s lovely artist wife, Charly (for Charlene). Though Charly is attempting to mend her fragile marriage to Johnnie R. (following the disclosure of his bisexuality) she allows herself the single infidelity with Nick. The tragic triangle is formed, then brutally broken. Nick then departs, only to return eight years later as Johnnie R. dies of AIDS. Nick and Johnnie R. now become reacquainted in the hospital, and it is when Johnnie R. sleeps that Nick relates the sometimes tragic, oftentimes mysterious, history of their friendship. Although the novel centers on the triangle, it is populated with a variety of characters: a slick hustler named Danny alias, the kid; Johnnie R.'s tough-as-nails father; Charly's dead brother; Mike, a scandalized homosexual bank executive; and the three hospital patients known as the three Queens. The single symbol which weaves them together (along with the many issues revolving around AIDS) is Talbott Street. A talisman of disparate meanings, it is an Indianapolis ghetto bar, a residential street address in London, the macabre scene of a senseless murder, an untitled series of mysterious paintings, the seat of scandal. Nick finds the intertwining of the several images that compose Talbot Street and enigma impossible to ignore, and as he reflects on the past he also traces the meaning of Talbot Street. The narrator, hyper-conscious, ever-ruminating, uncovers a tragic irony when he discovers a nexus among seemingly unrelated events with the help of the virus. The novel's two separate themes of friendship and disease find resolution as the mysterious past enlightens us as to the many contemporary meanings of HIV. This highlights and accentuates the mysterious and parallel manner in which both the human memory and HIV operate. As with memory, HIV lurks in the background, dormant, awaiting a host. The hidden past awaits to be mined, and within the past lies HIV. In order to find a viable reference to meaning in the present, whether in regard to AIDS or the mysteries informing the long-standing friendship of Nick and Johnnie R., we are thrust ceaselessly into the past.
