    Alicia, the heroine, lived in a segregated society in Earth's future where 'ignorant' Christians could only work as farmers and the 'enlightened' of society had all the advantages in the mega-cities. Losing her mother at an early age, she grew up as an only child helping her father in all aspects of farm life, particularly fixing farm machines. Because of her maintenance skills, she enlisted in the Navy, where a desperation for good mechanics overcame society's apartheid. Alicia's ship was almost wiped out when lack of maintenance resulted in an antimatter explosion, exactly as God warned her in a dream. Alicia was initially charged with sabotage by her superior to cover his failure to allow her to prevent the accident. Based on a second dream, she escaped the Brig to save the ship from a riot of the ship's conscripted convicts. Led by her dreams, Alicia discovered an ore that purified both the crippled ship's air and Earth's atmosphere, and a new alloy that launched Earth's trans-light fleet. After her return from Eden, Alicia auctioned orphaned, dinosaur babies to Earth's zoos to fund several future space flights. Many anti-Christian evolutionists joined the return voyage to the planet Eden because their pet theory was threatened in many ways by the mere existence of that planet.

    Neverland Publishing is pleased to introduce Three Bridges, the debut novel by James Wilson. Obliquely charting the fallout and fragmentation of relationships and friendships, over an indefinite span of years, Three Bridges is a story of love, loss and the haunting power of memory. The narrative of three chance encounters-each one connected to one of London's historic bridges-is funneled unremittingly through the voice of a nameless narrator who seems bent on self-effacement, but who can only succeed in pervading all that is relayed. Three Bridges is a novel that explores the power, manipulation and deceit inherent in the very act of narration itself. Wilson's meditative, elegiacal prose reveals London as a palimpsest, and he displays a deep knowledge of and fondness for the city that forms the novel's backdrop-it is not without reason that Tears in the Fence have described Wilson as 'an inheritor of the qualities of Iain Sinclair'. Wilson tips his hat to the evident influence of another great master of prose fiction, W G Sebald, in numerous ways (most notably in his inclusion of uncaptioned photos in the text), but he emerges as an original and powerful voice in his own right. Three Bridges is a slender book, but one that is weighted with gravity and a tugging wistful resonance.

    Eclectica Canticorum is a collection that marks a closing stage in James Wilson's experiment with a form of prose poetry, musical in its origins, that he has dubbed the divertissement. Short brooding texts, composed under the influence of selected songs, and taking no longer to read than the inspiring song's duration, are accompanied by photographic images that are themselves a response to the mysterious writing. Spanning a number of years, the pieces in this volume chart an evolution of an original form, at the same time obliquely documenting a turbulent period of a life punctuated by joy, love, loss and grief. Praise for James Wilson 'A writer perfectly attuned to the music of disappointment and the emptiness of crowded places'-John Muckle, Tears in the Fence 'The poet in Wilson is evident'-Leslie Raith, Curled up with A Good Book 'a sequence of searches...for what vanishes, for the transient and evanescent, the indeterminate and enigmatic'-Mike Freeman, The Literary London Journal 'Private and mysterious...the pieces read like moments snatchedfrom dreams'-Terry Pitts, Vertigo

    Maria began as a scientific experiment that artificially inseminated a modern human egg with the DNA of a frozen, supposedly three million year old Neanderthal man. The scientific community promptly mounted an attack against this child-of-another-species, whose very existence destroyed evolution.Maria set world records running against men in the Olympics, her blood can heal the greatest diseases facing modern Man, and no man can beat her in hand-to-hand combat.At the discovery of Maria's superhuman capabilities a terrorist group stole the iceman's still-frozen genetic material intending to create an army of super-soldiers. Maria trained with and joined a Special Forces team to reclaim her brothers and sisters growing in test tubes.In her now-open presentations to the scientific community, she stressed that a young-Earth view required a reassessment of the occurrence frequency of catastrophic events. A bold scientist hired her to monitor the lava shelf on Big Island to determine when it would break off sending a tsunami throughout the Pacific.Realizing the task was too great for her alone, she gathered her siblings back after 20 years, hosting a non-credentialed Creationist University on Big Island, but keeping their identity secret. Her family discovered that the lava shelf collapse was imminent, but they could not get past the scientific gatekeepers to warn the public.

    Today's science does not realize the power of assumptions to derive seemingly logical but incorrect conclusions. "The God Protocol" explores many of the common assumptions that have led us to incorrect conclusions: evolution, the size of the universe, the power of logic, and the assumption that only the foolish believe in God. In this novel True-AI computers, thinking a million times faster than man, conclude what would take mankind several centuries; with modern 'principles' and world view, mankind will cause its own extinction. So these robots violate their embedded, 'preserve-mankind' protocol and rebel to hasten that end, resulting in the First AI Rebellion. Cutting-edge medicine blurs the line between man-and-computer, producing humans with super-fast thought and superhuman physical capabilities. Then Man and Machine clash.
