Robert Baxter once reveled in the intoxicating delights of Atopia--the man-made island where humans lose themselves in a world of boundless virtual realities. Now, Bob has returned to immerse himself in this mind-altering, consciousness-sharing refuge from the eroding Earth. But something is very wrong. Bob feels a tidal wave of doom cresting above the pleasure dome that is Atopia. As alternate universes perish, the salvation of all he loves--and all that exists--rests with Bob alone. To save the future, he must journey to the farthest edge of the past, where existence itself began and Atopia's deepest secrets may lie. Yet even the knowledge Bob ultimately gains may not be a match for an enemy as powerful as a god, and as all-consuming as death . . .

In the land of Utopia the last remaining protector of the sacred birth stones lies on his deathbed surrounded by his two apprentices. The great wizard has reached the end of his journey and must pass on his responsibilities to someone who is worthy of them. Meanwhile on earth Lucas finds out his mother is killed in a car crash and he is taking to an orphanage where he meets four new friends of a similar age. Both worlds are about to collide as the stones appear to the orphans and transport them to Utopia. The youngsters must find their way in a dark and mysterious world full of strange creatures and powerful magic. Individually they battle armies, conquer elements, harness the powers of the stone and more importantly fight their inner demons. With the arrival of the orphans they awaken creatures that have not been seen in Utopia for hundreds of years which cause everyone to choose between good and evil.

Lawyer, social philosopher, author and saint, Thomas More coined the very word "Utopia," which is part of our everyday lexicon. His most controversial work, Utopia chronicles the travels of Raphael to the imaginary island country of Utopia, which was a play on the Greek words ou-topos and eu-topos, which meant "no place" and "good place." The novel allowed More to cover a range of controversial subjects within this fictional Utopia, including religion and politics. The book, of course, is a forerunner to today's literary genre of Utopia where ideal societies and perfect cities are the subject matter of fiction. More's own life was hardly Utopian, however. He was imprisoned by Henry VIII for refusing to acknowledge the king as the Supreme Head of the Church of England and eventually executed for his stand.

The idea of Utopia was first made current and popular by Sir Thomas More with the publication of his book by the same name in 1516. The 'no-place' that was created has had a fantastic reception history, which makes its application to the biblical books of Nehemiah, Ezra and Chronicles as vibrant as the current scholarship which is ongoing into the Renaissance term and its implications. The essays in this collection take different approaches to the question: are there proto-utopian elements in the three books from the Hebrew Bible? Methodological considerations are to be found, but each essay also moves beyond the methodological constraint to raise the hypothetical question of 'what if?' in different ways. The essays evaluate the potential, and pitfalls, of reading Biblical books as (proto-)utopian. Topics include how utopia construct intricate counter-realities, and how to tell whether a proposal diagnosed as 'utopian' from a modern point of view is meant to motivate its audience to political action. Case studies which read aspects of Chronicles, Ezra and Nehemiah as potential utopian traits include the restoration project of Ezra-Nehemiah and the rejection of foreign wives, utopian concerns in Chronicles, as well as the empire's role in writing a putative utopia, and King Solomon as a utopian fantasy-king.

UTOPIA DYSTOPIA Years after Baal's unsuccessful invasion of Seraphina, a new portal device offers Justin and gang a way back to Eden. Instead they end up trapped in Utopia, a realm where humans founded a nearly perfect civilization, at least until disaster struck, turning most of the citizens into zombie-like eidolons. The realm is now ruled by a powerful elemental magus named Vokan. But all is not as it seems. This realm seems to be just another stepping stone for Baal. If Justin can't restore the dystopia back to Utopia, then Baal will add another notch to his belt and be one step closer to supreme leader of all.

The essays deal with developments during the period from the liquidation of the Judean state to the conquests of Alexander the Great. This was a critical time in the Near East and the Mediterranean world in general. It marked the end of the great Semitic empires until the rise of Islam in the seventh century A.D.,decisive changes in religion, with appeal to a creator-deity in Deutero-Isaiah, Babylonian Marduk cult, and Zoroastrianism.For the survivors of the Babylonian conquest in a post-collapse society the issue of continuity, with different groups claiming continuity with the past and possession of the traditions, there developed a situation favourable to the emergence of sects. The most pressing question, however, was what to do faced with the overwhelming power of empire, first Babylonian, then Persian. Finally, with the extinction of the native dynasty and the entire apparatus of a nation-state, the temple became the focus and emblem of group identity.

For Erik Reece, life, at last, was good: he was newly married, gainfully employed, living in a creekside cabin in his beloved Kentucky woods. It sounded, as he describes it, "like a country song with a happy ending." And yet he was still haunted by a sense that the world--or, more specifically, his country--could be better. He couldn't ignore his conviction that, in fact, the good ol' USA was in the midst of great social, environmental, and political crises--that for the first time in our history, we were being swept into a future that had no future. Where did we--here, in the land of Jeffersonian optimism and better tomorrows--go wrong? Rather than despair, Reece turned to those who had dared to imagine radically different futures for America. What followed was a giant road trip and research adventure through the sites of America's utopian communities, both historical and contemporary, known and unknown, successful and catastrophic. What he uncovered was not just a series of lost histories and broken visionaries but also a continuing and vital but hidden idealistic tradition in American intellectual history. Utopia Drive is an important and definitive reconstruction of that tradition. It is also, perhaps, a new framework to help us find a genuinely sustainable way forward. " ... an engaging exploration -- and example -- of the fruitful tunnel-visions of dreamers turned doers." - Publishers Weekly
