    About this ebook

    He wondered what the spark had been. Was it the heinous suffering of a friend and his family? Was it the state of a world gone mad with pandemic and politics? Was it the doubtful pronouncements of science and social media? Perhaps the sermon on Job which had left him with more questions than answers? He had an inkling that the book sample he had read, which initially prompted ridicule on a partisan political basis, now stirred a more first principles’ view that all human systems are fatally flawed. Maybe it was a combination of all these in a mind which, these days, wouldn’t let an issue go unless it was spelled out, literally, on a printed page.

    Anthony Van

    What does a retired teacher do? Especially a teacher with a hyperactive imagination and ingrained work habits. Well this one writes. And being a Christian, each novel I have written necessarily is pieced together from a Christian perspective.I have a broad range of interests which include science and technology, mathematics, travel, sports and the interrelationship of people. Much of what intrigues me about people is that some pursue truth with the determination of a bloodhound while others almost ignore existential ideas and while away their short time spent on earth being distracted by people or pleasures or possessions or power.Writing is a hobby. It allows me to research and self educate, and it also permits me to refine my perspectives of concepts existential and theological.
