Destiny and time are the themes of this novel. Can we really alter time? Would we?or could we?change any details of our lives if we had the opportunity to go back in time? Michael Grant, who flirts with suicide, is given this opportunity. The ending may be surprising!?This work is meaty and sustaining and could in no way be termed lightweight or frivolous. It's a good, square meal and two veg which will give the reader much food for thought and no little enjoyment.? ? Pat Miller, The Jedburgh Courier, Sept 2000.

Like James Joyce's character, Stephen Daedalus, Denton searches deeply into his soul, seeking to communicate and understand the consciousness of his race. Questioning his reason for living, Denton preaches the Gospel to prisoners in Pretoria Central Prison. The author's blending of narrative and stream of consciousness, interspersed with poetic epiphany, captures the complex climate of Denton's spiritual journey. The author writes on a high, dramatic level, never in danger of losing the tension of a conflict that leads his character away from a fundamentalist belief in Christian doctrine to a wider acceptance of Christ and salvation through grace.Charles Humphrey Muller, MA (Wales), PhD (London), DLitt(UFS), DEd (SA), was Professor and Head of the Department of English at the University of the North in South Africa for ten years. He is the author of numerous academic textbooks and literary studies. Now living in Spain, he continues to write.

A clear and concrete goal is the first step in the realization of your dreams. It's the foundation upon which all your actions - all your consequent actions - will be established. It's the first ingredient of a magic formula. There's no magic about it, of course - it just works like magic. It's the first step that unleashes - or begins to unleash - a creative force available to every human being. From establishing an objective, working out a strategy, and using faith and initiative, this detailed thesis explores the essential principles for personal success and achievement and guides the reader step-by step through the practical process of attaining his or her goals. More important, the book describes a spiritual journey, and asks whether it is the individual, or the invisible hand of Providence, that engineers the success - even to the extent of changing one's original goals, and changing one in the process.
