Sometime during the ninth century a famous Arab leader, Caliph Al Mamun, broke into the Great Pyramid in Egypt. There he found what early historians referred to as a stone statue. Inside the statue was a man wearing a gold breastplate that was covered in gems. His weapons lay by his side. They included a fabulously fine sword and shield. Someone had placed a huge ruby on his head indicating that this man was royalty. Egyptians were not usually buried in their armour but we are told that Alexander the Great was. So if this was Alexander, who put him there and why? To find out I have explored ancient legends, documents and medieval paintings. What I found was truly astonishing and leads to, what I believe could well be the final resting place of Alexander the Great.Alexander, A New Theory on An Ancient Legend offers up a new hypothesis as to what may have happened to Alexander the Great many centuries after his death.

Astral Philosophy: How to Connect to Your Inner Light and Higher Self
Astral Philosophy aims to help the reader see and come to know the divine light that shines eternally in their soul. The light spoken of here is an actual light viewed by the third or inner eye. Seeing it opens up the world of Astral experiences.Though we go through a form of physical transformation at so called death, our mind, soul and personality do not lose consciousness. We have an eternal soul with certain looks and a personality, an eternal mind with abilities, memories and experiences of many different lives lived through centuries of existence.The exploration of our inner self is not a new phenomena. In the past it has been referred to as 'lifting the veil' or 'searching for the holy grail'. Alchemists have referred to it as the Philosophers Stone and down through the ages religious and mystical texts have also made reference to it.By reading and absorbing the knowledge presented in this book, the reader will achieve an awareness of the Astral Plane pertinent to their own personal journey. Indeed they will come to understand that information from the Astral world is available to them if they so wish…

"... there's no war here. All we have is people throwing their weight around. You surely didn't think country villages were full of nice kindly people helping each other? Our war is village toughs settling scores, eyeing you up, leering at you, pawing you if they get the chance. People you wouldn't have trusted with sixpence a while ago, standing outside the grocers with pistols in their belts, pushing you in the back. Everybody spying on everybody else." Lucy is a painter. She has everything: fame, money and reputation. She also has Oscar. At least, he has always been there. One fine day, she will do something about that. It was, as she says, hardly a love affair, more a kind of marriage. Perhaps, even war-torn France is safe enough on the Oscar front. But Lucy is deceiving herself. Set before and after the second world war in London, Edinburgh, Saint-Valery-sur-Somme, Dundee and a remote village in war-time France, two painters struggle to come to terms with the casual brutality of war. A love story. Alan Kennedy's fourth novel - a masterly account of love, loss and reconciliation.
