Casey Kasem, the author's radio companion throughout his troubled teenage years, summed up the approach to this book with his famous byline: "Keep your feet on the ground and keep reaching for the stars."The Rod of Iron brings the author's very personal, and gut-wrenching emotional, intellectual, and spiritual journey to a startling conclusion. Committing to an autobiographical trilogy of a life in flight forced the author to document unexpected twists and turns in his obsessive quest for coherence. "Truthy," superficial answers would not do. A global digging for satisfactory answers that began at the 1981 City of David archaeological expedition, described in The People of the Sign, continues in the ruins of ancient temples at G bekli Tepe and then stretches outward, towards the heavens. The Rod of Iron digs deeper, reaches higher, and ends up connecting dots on earth to those indicated by distant stars, forming ever-larger patterns, which ultimately solve riddle after puzzle after mystery in what one reviewer called a "relentless search for truth."The final miles of the long and winding road embarked upon in the prior two volumes integrate theories that predate the planet, describing the first moments of the creation that unfolded space-time. Fractal patterns, revealed in the fabric that originated, envelops, and permeates us, provide compelling answers to questions about where we come from, who we are, and where we are in our progression as a species. They also reveal how our destiny to emerge as Sons of God, with similar creative capacities, albeit in infinitely weaker and more limited forms, is being fulfilled, in real time, through the continuous march of prophetic history.The Tower of Bab-El story is but one mysterious "X Marks the Spot" starting point in this final volume, but also an elusive destination - located in our modern era. The author unpacks the Bible's cryptic message: That which the citizens of Bab-El sought to attain is within the reach of a unified planet. The implications of that statement are among the astounding discoveries in this tightly written book.Fans of The People of the Sign and The Hardness of the Heart are sure to find The Rod of Iron a fascinating, surprising and satisfying conclusion to Mr. Fransson's opus, as the lyrical threads of the author's life come together in a crescendo worth the considerable effort needed to digest the vast internal and external territory covered along the way. The testing of outrageous hypotheses against historical events and modern science, the intricate nuances of science and philosophy explained using articles from the Bible, Scientific American, Indian Legends, official government websites, and the author's personal life events has delivered a riveting story unlike any other.After finishing The Rod of Iron you may never again view the universe, current events, and the significance of your own existence, in quite the same way.

Chosen Wanderers is the first book in the Z-Rod series: a gripping saga set in the upheavals of Pictish Scotland in the 6th century. At the initiation of two princes preparing one to rule the tribe, a mysterious power symbol, the Z-Rod, is tattooed on one, unleashing uncontrollable consequences. Tribal power struggles are further intensified when two Irish saints arrive whose vibrant faith and daring spirit, preserving them through the Scottish wilds, demonstrates to capricious warlords and their powerful druids, an alternative worldview of reconciliation and hope. Straddling these two worlds is a mysterious bard with prophetic abilities. His revelation has little relevance initially, but later becomes the lifeline to recover a seemingly lost destiny. What significance does the Z-Rod and ‘bearing fire to the north’ have on an exile, and how will anything be achieved amidst poverty and obscurity? By turns epic and homely, spiritually searching and thoroughly adventurous, this story of great undoing and remaking propels us through multiple scenes and characters in a setting which is utterly convincing in its detail.
