***The Second Installment in the Amazon Bestselling Series***Andrew and Regina have been separated by life's greatest barrier: death. That has never stopped them before, and it won't stop them now. When Regina comes to Andrew in spirit and tells him that her soul has been captured by the space aristocracy that they used to work for in a former life, Andrew's world is thrown upside down. There's more to life than his boring existence on Earth, and he has a rude awakening when a young girl named Samantha shows up in his dreams to arduously teach him how to be a Creator (an infinitely powerful spiritual being capable of creating realities and controlling matter, energy, space and time). Will Andrew be able to save Regina from the Creators Confederation, or will the destructive technology that the lovers once built for the regime be completed and used against them to do what's never been done in the history of the universe: destroy the human spirit -- theirs? About The Creators Series: A saga centered around two young lovers (inner-city kids on Earth) who discover that they used to be Creators (infinitely powerful spiritual beings capable of creating realities and controlling matter, energy, space and time) who once upon a time built the universe's most dangerous technology -- capable of destroying the human spirit. They find that they must take responsibility for the universe in which they live, for what they have done, and what they can become, in order to save all existence as well as their eternal love.

The Creators: A Comedy Three times during dinner he had asked himself what, after all, was he there for? And at the end of it, as she rose, her eyes held him for the first time that evening, as if they said that he would see. She had put him as far from her as possible, at the foot of her table between two of the four preposterous celebrities whom she had asked him, George Tanqueray, to meet. Everything, except her eyes, had changed since he had last dined with Jane Holland, in the days when she was, if anything, more obscure than he. It was no longer she who presided at the feast, but her portrait by Gisborne, R.A. He had given most of his attention to the portrait.

Excerpt: ... sure, to know how far the two were going or had gone. Whatever was between them, it was something that Brodrick desired to conceal, to thrust out of her sight, as he had thrust the thing he had held in his hand. Up-stairs overhead, she heard the door of his room opening and shutting. She saw the light from his windows lengthening on the gravel path outside. He was not coming back. She opened the drawer where she divined that it lurked hidden, the thing that was the sign and symbol of their secret. She found lying there, face downwards, a portrait of Jane Holland, a photograph of the painting by Gisborne. She took it in her hand and looked at the queer, half-plain, half-beautiful, wholly fascinating face; and it was as if she looked for the first time on the face of her own passion, dully, stupidly, not knowing it for the thing it was. She had a sudden vision of their passion, Jane's and Brodrick's, as it would be; she saw the transitory, incarnate thing, flushed in the splendour of its moment, triumphant, exultant and alive. She laid the portrait in its drawer again, face downwards, and turned from it. And for a moment she stood there, clutching her breasts with her hands, so that she hurt them, giving pain for intolerable pain. XXXI Now that the thing she was afraid of had become a fact, she told herself that she might have known, that she had known it all the time. As she faced it she realized how terribly afraid she had been. She had had foreknowledge of it from the moment when Jane Holland came first into Brodrick's house. She maintained her policy of silence. It helped her, as if she felt that, by ignoring this thing, by refusing to talk about it, by not admitting that anything so preposterous could be, it did somehow cease to be. She would have been glad if Brodrick's family could have remained unaware of the situation. But Brodrick's family, by the sheer instinct of self-preservation, was awake to everything that concerned it. Every...

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact.
