Bob and Rose never knew their parents. They are twelve years-old and live in an alley in an almost empty city. A Pathfinder came looking for recruits, with a test, and Rose passed but Bob didn’t. The Pathfinder explained to Rose that if she came with him she would learn to go become a Pathfinder and go to the stars, or die trying. The Pathfinder told her that he would help her and everyone there would want her to succeed but it was still a very big risk. Rose refused to go without Bob, and the Pathfinder reluctantly agreed, but is she taking Bob to a much better world, or will he die with her? And the more they find out about pathfinders the more they find they have to loose.

Vigorous, self-reliant, amazingly resourceful, and moral, Natty Bumppo is the prototype of the Western hero. A faultless arbiter of wilderness justice, he hates middle-class hypocrisy. But he finds his love divided between the woman he has pledged to protect on a treacherous journey and the untouched forest that sustains him in his beliefs. A fast-paced narrative full of adventure and majestic descriptions of early frontier life, Indian raiders, and defenseless outposts, The Pathfinder set the standard for epic action literature.Quotes from the book:“The sublimity connected with vastness is familiar to every eye.”“The expanse of the ocean is seldom seen by the novice with indifference.”“Walking about streets, going to church of Sundays, and hearing sermons, never yet made a man of a human being. Send the boy out upon the broad ocean, if you wish to open his eyes, and let him look upon foreign nations, or what I call the face of nature, if you wish him to understand his own character.”Readers' reviews:“Cooper emphatically belongs to the nation. He has left a space in our literature which will not easily be supplied.” (Washington Irving)“A beautiful look at life on the early frontier and the struggle for survival. Romance, adventure, survival all together in a wonderful tale told in language nearly forgotten. Appealing to both men and woman, a true American classic worth the investment of time.” (Chris Smith, goodreads.com) “I loved it. I come from upstate New York, though I haven´t lived there in over 20 years. I have camped and canoed in the the Adirondacks many times, just an hour East of Oswego. I felt like I was transported back to that green cathedral in this book, and could easily see eye-to-eye with the Pathfinders reverence of nature.”(William Durkee, goodreads.com)

Drifting through life.Then one day, he is ripped from reality.A serious road accident sends Norman into a coma. He is stuck in a lucid dream, caught between two worlds and soon realises, he is not alone...Victor James is his loyal friend. Working with a mysterious librarian, they discover a way to enter Norman's dream.It's only then that they reveal the scale of the horror that imprisons him.A place where nightmares are born.-Pathfinders is an action packed, exciting rescue mission that explores our deepest fears and what lays hidden in our subconscious.JOIN THE ADVENTURE TODAY!-INTERVIEW WITH THE AUTHORHow did you come up with the idea for PATHFINDERS?I've been interested in lucid dreaming for a long time, ever since reading Stephen LaBerge's seminal book, 'Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming'. I'm also a massive fan of zombie and apocalyptic horror and saw an opportunity to combine the two themes!Why did you self-publish?Like most self-published authors, I have my fair share of rejection letters from traditional publishers. I saw self-publishing as a route to bring my ideas directly to the market, in a fast and cost effective manner. I've read many cheap kindle books where the price doesn't necessarily reflect the quality of the product, so I saw it as a viable model to at least consider.Why should readers buy PATHFINDERS?This is a debut novel which has taken a decade of my life to create. I've taken great effort to make the best it can be. Not content to simply throw something online, I've hired editors and proofreaders to ensure that my first foray into self-publishing creates something which, at the very least, I can look back at and be proud of.Combine that with the fact that I really believe in the story, one that I think is original, guiding the reader on an exploration through altered states of consciousness.What other books are you working on?I released a crime thriller in June 2016, featuring a Catholic Parish priest as the protagonist. It is called SIGIL. My plan is to feature a series of books around the main character, Fr. Tom Regan who fancies himself as an amateur Private Investigator.I've also just completed a fast paced international thriller called RAISING LAZARUS, which follows a man who believes he has been cursed with eternal life!

Rose’s decision is not just for herself, Bob has been taking care of her and she can’t leave him behind. But if she takes him he only lives if she does. As they learn to become Pathfinders they find that they have more to lose than they thought, and they find that Bob may be the key to their survival.
