Stormy Weather: A Novel by Dermot Davis
Genre(s): Literature & Fiction, Genre Fiction, Metaphysical, Self-Help, Dreams, Religion & Spirituality, New Age
* ***NUMBER 1 BESTSELLER IN DREAMS****
Robert Munro, a therapist specializing in dream interpretation, awoke one morning to find himself in a dream from which he could not awaken. Experiencing first hand the limitations of his own training and theories, he must solve the puzzle of his own dream in order to break free from its bondage. In the process, he’ll better understand himself, other people, and the nature of consciousness itself.
“I was taken in by this book right from the start, which is always a good sign. From the first couple of pages, it’s a puzzle to the reader just as much to the protagonist. Dr. Robert Munro is a therapist who thinks he has all the answers, but as this compelling and thought-provoking story goes on, it becomes clear that he not only doesn’t know the answers, he’s not even sure what the questions are.
We follow Dr. Munro as he – and the reader – become less and less sure what’s real, what’s a dream, and what the difference even is. It’s a testament to the author’s skill that this all follows naturally, and the reader is drawn into it a little at a time until we’re questioning everything right along with the protagonist.
The supporting characters are equally well-drawn and compelling, and it’s clear that the author has a strong background and deep knowledge of psychology and the imagery of dreams. The prose is clear and comfortable reading, and the payoff at the end is well worth the journey to get there.” – James Dibenedetto, author

The River Panj by David Raterman
Genre(s): Literature & Fiction, Genre Fiction, Action & Adventure, Mystery Thriller & Suspense, Thrillers
D erek Braun, an ex-Notre Dame football star, was all set to play in the NFL, but then he screwed up. On Sept. 11, 2001, he’s working in emergency relief in Afghanistan when America is attacked. And his fiancée and elderly colleague are kidnapped along the border with ex-Soviet Tajikistan, which is struggling out of its own civil war. With no one to help, Derek goes in search, and on this dangerous journey, he faces Islamic terrorists, heroin smugglers, corrupt Russian soldiers, Iranian spies, and incompetent CIA agents.
Meanwhile, terrorists begin using bodies of released hostages to transport cesium-137 powder to the United States. Osama bin Laden stated he wants to acquire the powder from an old Soviet nuclear plant still operating in Tajikistan, but is al-Qaeda involved in this plot? Or another terrorist group?
Derek Braun finds out. But how can he save his loved ones and stop the world’s first suicide dirty bomb before it’s too late?
“(David Raterman) knows his stuff, because he’s walked the dusty roads of Central Asia and he’s looked al-Qaeda mujahedeen in the eyes and lived to tell about it. Raterman is the real deal. Just read the first few pages of THE RIVER PANJ and you’ll discover an exciting new writer.”
- David Hagberg, best-selling thriller novelist and three-time Edgar nominee
“David Raterman has published what may be the first thriller set in Afghanistan on 9-11 with ‘The River Panj.’ Raterman’s debut uses the world events of Sept. 11, 2001, to show a personal tale of Derek Braun, a former Notre Dame football star who has found a calling doing relief work in Afghanistan. As terrorists shock the world, Derek is on his own when his fiancée and a colleague are kidnapped.”
- Oline Cogdill in the South Florida Sun Sentinel
