Synopsis

According to Cosmigellan, a gentle Phaedran accidentally ejected from his home planet by ancient ritual, it is through discovering, knowing, and embracing the universe, that one transcends the petty concerns of the self to truly become. “Seek your inner truth; live to your potential.” This is Cosmigellan’s message, and for Rita it has become the only antidote to a pointless and tortured existence. Crippled, alone, and subservient to a disturbed and abusive father, Rita finds previously unknown personal strength and determination through the gentle and oftentimes infuriatingly paradoxical mentoring of her alien friend and lover. She comes to understand why the many apparently diverging paths of her life have brought her to this one place—trapped in a corner of a life that is yet to be realized. The decisions she must make will at once horrify her and challenge everything she believes about choice and responsibility. Along her bizarre odyssey, Rita discovers astounding truths not only about herself, but of the universe and the origin of intelligence itself. And even the wise Cosmigellan must learn new truths. His relationship with Rita forces him to expose his most vulnerable inner self, and now he must reveal his most guarded secret, a secret he has kept even from himself, a secret passed generation to generation of Phaedrans…for nearly fifteen billion years. Cosmigellan: Universe Unfolding will compel you to re-examine your assumptions, re-assess your potential, and dare take charge of what you cherish most: your life.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Lily Splane began her writing career when she was 15, with a series of articles on donkey care and training for the international Journal of The American Donkey and Mule Society (also known as Mr. Longears, or The Brayer). Today, she owns a publishing company that not only publishes her own works, but the works of other exceptional authors. Her passions include quantum cosmology, particle physics, philosophy, biochemistry, nutrition, physiology, oil and digital painting, belly dance, world music, and music composition. Anaphase II Publishing released its first title in 1988, with Nutritional Self-Defense, written by founder Lily Splane. The publishing company survived two transfers of ownership throughout the years, but is now back in the capable hands of its founder. Anaphase II Publishing, now an imprint of Cyberlepsy Media, publishes exceptional, authoritative books in the sciences (with lay readers as the target audience) including nutrition, the philosophical implications of quantum cosmology, and human behavior. Other areas include how-to books on writing and book typesetting and design, as well as science fiction and speculative fiction. Cyberlepsy Media also publishes music and music instruction CDs, as well as music instruction DVDs. Future projects include the music and a forthcoming book on the doumbek (Mid-East drum) by new author/composer, San Diego’s beloved percussionist and sound engineer Richard Adrian Steiger. Lily Splane has been writing, editing, typesetting, and designing books for self-publishers, college professors, and small presses for more than thirty years. She has written several magazine articles, and is author of eight books. Lily holds a master’s degree in nutritional science, a Doctor of Divinity degree, and is currently studying cognitive psychology. She lives in San Diego, California.
