"My mother has been dead for almost seven weeks: I had better go to work before the need to write about her, which I felt so strongly at her funeral, dies away and I fall back into the dull speechlessness with which I reacted to the nerves of her suicide." So begins Peter Handke's extraordinary confrontation with his mother's death. In a painful and courageous attempt to deal with the almost intolerable horror of her suicide, he sets out to piece together the facts of her life, as he perceives them. What emerges is a loving portrait of inconsolable grief, a woman whose lively spirit has been crushed not once but over and over again by the miseries of her place and time. Yet well into middle age, living in the Austrian village of her birth, she still remains haunted by her dreams.

In this book, I've addressed a range of vibrant issues, putting forth my best effort to give each topic a meaningful dimension. It's my hope that these thoughtfully crafted pieces will not only please the readers but also provide them with delightful insight. This book is the manifestation of a dream made possible by divine blessings.

Bestselling science fiction master Peter F. Hamilton delivers the first of a two-book saga set in his popular Commonwealth universe. Distinguished by deft plotting, a teeming cast of characters, dazzling scientific speculation, and imagination that brings the truly alien to life, The Abyss Beyond Dreams reveals Hamilton as a storyteller of astonishing ingenuity and power. The year is 3326. Nigel Sheldon, one of the founders of the Commonwealth, receives a visit from the Raiel—self-appointed guardians of the Void, the enigmatic construct at the core of the galaxy that threatens the existence of all that lives. The Raiel convince Nigel to participate in a desperate scheme to infiltrate the Void. Once inside, Nigel discovers that humans are not the only life-forms to have been sucked into the Void, where the laws of physics are subtly different and mental powers indistinguishable from magic are commonplace. The humans trapped there are afflicted by an alien species of biological mimics—the Fallers—that are intelligent but merciless killers. Yet these same aliens may hold the key to destroying the threat of the Void forever—if Nigel can uncover their secrets. As the Fallers’ relentless attacks continue, and the fragile human society splinters into civil war, Nigel must uncover the secrets of the Fallers—before he is killed by the very people he has come to save. Praise for The Abyss Beyond Dreams “The work of an author at the top of his game.”—Science Fiction and Fantasy World “Incredibly robust and exciting and rousing, sharing flavors of Jack Vance, John Wright, China Miéville, Orson Scott Card, and A. E. van Vogt . . . Hamilton’s deployment of lots of grand super-science is utterly deft and convincing.”—Locus “Solidy engrossing fare . . . The characters, always Hamilton’s strength, remain as distinctive as ever.”—Kirkus Reviews “Everything one wants in sf—great characters, mind bending stuff, adventure, politics, romance, revolution . . . just superb.”—Fantasy Book Critic “Hamilton does a particular kind of planetary politics and space opera very well, and this is a perfect example of it. . . . [The Abyss Beyond Dreams is] a satisfying and well-oiled story, with potential for more epic adventure to come.”—Booklist

This is a collection of seven epics, lyrics of seven respective musical albums, which I also composed. During that period of my life I passed through various experiences, which profoundly influenced my life and eventually my compositions, whether musical or lyrical. Maybe they could be a true reflection! A teenager of the seventies, I was a fan of classical and rock music with a special interest in progressive and heavy rock, which quite influenced my musical style and stirring ideas driving my potential writing gear. The various readings of science fiction, eastern ethnical beliefs and philosophies, some significant motion pictures, and the surrounding world of changes; incarnating tyranny, deceit, war, inhumanity, injustice...all contributed and had tangible impact on forming my ideology. The Martyr, the old-young man, who loved his human brotherhood and nature, whose enigma was to salvage them, who desparately searched for love but was absurdly treated, and winded up a martyr of his own principles! Could a simple person make a drastic decision to stop the wrong? Free the abused, whatever it took him? The Raver was sort of decisive evolution to countervail the dark world presented in the Demons' Kingdom. Land of a Thousand Dreams, blindness! What a mysterious world? Is it better or worse? A bless or a curse? An evolution, a paradigm shift from delirium to step on the threshold towards the route to promise land. Travelling in space and time, traversing life and death to reach reality, a contemplation of the mind was The Journey! When you have acquired knowledge, then you should share it and help others, lead them to enlightenment! Fly Free Gentle Dove is the aim. Have I really grasped the knowledge and gone beyond it to reach unity with the universe? The recapitulation is in the Voyages on the Oceans of Mystery.
