SPIRITUAL SUNDAY. What does it really mean to be 'spiritual' in today's world?
In this first book in the trilogy, The World of Owl, a group of young friends -- artists and coders -- decide to undermine the totalitarian state that controls and oppresses them. They launch a creative, nonviolent struggle that puts them in grave danger.
My friend Geoff Hall has taken on the challenging endeavour of using a novel genre -- fantasy-supernatural-mystery-thriller -- to bring this message of hope and love to a locked down, anxious, hungry, despairing world that is just as dystopian as the one he created in his book.
Frankly, I think this novel was truly meant to be an interactive, graphic novel -- the plot itself demands a broader, more modern storytelling that integrates video, music, graphics and interactivity. But my friend Geoff has a working-class background that limits his resources. So please buy this book so that the proceeds can bring this wonderful story (which, by the way, I think should also be read by a teenage audience, with parental guidance) to a format where it can be most powerful.
