"Everyone know that Poul Anderson is one of the best: they're wrong — he's better!" — Jerry Pournelle. Invaders from space, meet your match. What the aliens see: a blue-green orb, occupied by bipedal aborigines with early pretechnical civilization, a farm-oriented economy, population scattered in small groupings — a world ripe for the plundering. They choose one moderate population cluster to serve as a bridge head. What the Villagers see: Demons! They may be crude, but if medieval villagers know one thing, it's how to combat demons... Science fiction.

If you could ask for anything, knowing that you would get it, what would you ask for? If you knew that you had an equal chance of living another fifty years or anther fifty seconds, how would you live the rest your life? Stones: While on vacation, my son pointed out the unusual rock formations and asked why the land was sacred. I told him that when people see something rare, something unusual, they are reminded it could only have come from God. I believe that rare and unusual events in our lives are the very fingerprints of God. My sons and I were reading the stories about Joshua conquering the land of Canaan and about how Joshua set up an Ebenezer stone to remind him that God had helped him. I was explaining the concept and they decided that we need an Ebenezer stone so that we can remember how much God has helped us over this time and to remind us that we can trust Him and be brave in the future when we are scared. This book is our family’s Ebenezer, our sacred stone, God’s fingerprint on our lives. We hope that you enjoy reading it as much as I have enjoyed writing it.
