Books with author Andrew Bell

2067 was the year I died for the first time… It was painful. Had I known how often I’d be expected to die over the next several millennia, I might have made a stronger effort to stay dead. The year actually started off rather nice. I finished my PhD in high energy physics and was promoted to Lieutenant Commander in the United States Air Force. My first posting after the promotion was to the Lunar One Air Base where I worked with my father, Dr. Robert Kimbridge on “The Project.” “The Project” was our name for a VASIMR Ion Drive interplanetary space craft that used Thorium LFTR reactors for both shielding and power. Capable of a sustained point one G of acceleration, our prototype was expected to make the Mars run in less than a week. By the end of November the ESX Arizona was ready for her first trial runs and I was her pilot. History has an odd way of repeating itself.Uncounted millennia ago the uncreated Creator reached forth a hand and touched a series of disparate universes. The touch set in motion ripples that created life in the Creator’s image… a life that was self-aware… a life that aspired to be more than it was… a life that sought to create in its own right. Love and fear walked hand in hand. Thus the stage was set for an epic conflict that would span the universes. These are the adventures of one brave soul and her quest to protect all life. These are the Catherine Kimbridge Chronicles.

Through vivid nightmares, strange events and harrowing accounts from others, who themselves had been left scarred by the dark entities that plagued Skipton Road, Christopher and his family eventually found themselves amid a terrifying ordeal... one that would change their lives forever.Sequel to 'The Skipton Haunting: Tale of the Red Ribbon Witch', though can also be read as a stand-alone novel.Based on an actual haunting the author and his family experienced in 2016.

A disturbing story based on a true haunting the author himself experienced.In 2016, John Davidson and his family moved to Skipton Road, a quiet cul-de-sac situated within the heart of a northern industrial town. They had no idea of what evil terrors awaited them. Things seemed normal at first, apart from the pungent smell of rotten flesh in their kitchen, recurring scratch marks along the walls, and an overwhelming sense of always being watched by someone or “something”. Overtime, through a series of vivid nightmares and intrusive whispers, the Davidsons came to learn of a malignant menace that still dwelled within their new home – a witch named Sabina, who sought out vengeance upon those whom had betrayed her in life, along with an ancient demon... Sabina’s ‘Master’. Throughout these horrific events, John struggled against his growing depression, his new reliance on alcohol, and the overall strong desire to keep his family from falling apart – which it was. This terrifying period in their lives would forever haunt the Davidsons, as it did with countless other victims before them.In reading this book, you will bear witness to an actual haunting that took place, its lasting effect on those involved, and one that many people can verify.
