Luc Ponti Chronicles

Sixteen-year-old star basketball player Luc Ponti wins an important tiebreaker game during the last few seconds of play. He is simultaneously critically injured by a flagrant foul by a player from the opposing team. Luc dies for several minutes but is revived after having a near-death experience (NDE). He inexplicably begins to develop superpowers, which change the course of his life and have a profound impact on the world.

Dr. Sergei Karlovich, codenamed Seagull, is one of the most brilliant, powerful, and dangerous of Russian operatives. He seeks a hideous form of revenge for what Luc Ponti and his SPI (Super Paranormal Intelligence) Team wrought on his daughter, Tamara Carlin, a Russian double agent within the CIA. Should Seagull succeed, it could place the world in jeopardy of falling under Russian global dominance. “Seagull's Revenge” is a fusion of deep-state espionage, science, technology, and politics, experienced through the eyes of the three members of the SPI Team, each of whom has been gifted with unique superpowers, subsequent to their near-death experience (NDE). Woven throughout the fabric of the novel's narrative of espionage and foreign intrigue, the author provides examples of immense power, hiding in plain sight, accessible by intimately understanding the Meaning of Life and Life Purpose, both available at higher levels of consciousness. It leaves the listener with an important message: all is connected in ways we could never have imagined. Not only does the story take us into the thrilling world of a new kind of superhero, it also explores a theme that is dear to any seeker's heart: that we must make our life 's journey a quest to find and fulfill our true Life Purpose.

“Cosmic Contact: The Next Earth” is a sci-fi, action adventure that takes place ten years after books one and two. The SPI Team members have become internationally recognized scientists. They are approached by Major John Dallant, who now heads the CIA and NSA, to address a seemingly impossible mission-find a means to save some semblance of humanity, which is on a path to extinction. The potential impact of runaway climate-change has long been grossly underestimated. The world is rapidly approaching an existential crisis-the Anthropogenic Extinction-the sixth annihilation of Earth-bound species since life first appeared 3.5 billion years ago. Assisted by teammates Eric Evans and Bella Moreno, and Thay Tuan, the team's consigliere, Luc Ponti, now an astrophysicist at MIT, succeeds in creating a stabilized micro-wormhole, which is launched by NASA into high-Earth orbit and used as a means to contact intelligent life on exoplanets well within the "Goldilocks" zone-potentially human-habitable planets. Communication through the wormhole enables near-instantaneous contact over hundreds of lightyears of distance. The plan is to reach extraterrestrials who have technology that could help Earth achieve a level of sustainability above what now is sure extinction.
