This first book in the metaphysical trilogy of novels was not only a gift from Spirit but a turning point in Steven Howard's journey as an aspiring writer. After having completed drafts of several mystery/thriller novels, he knew, intuitively, that he was being given a new direction to take, that he was to write a series of novels, loosely based upon his own personal life, changing the names of his characters to protect the innocent.

This first book traces his life from pre-birth through to the age of eighteen and lays out the harrowing journey from the innocence of a child to a deeply troubled teenager looking to his way. PART TWO - INTO THE WASTELAND and PART THREE - MOVING INTO THE LIGHT continue to tell the story.
