His Napa Valley retirement was supposed to be quiet and peaceful.
Until he was visited by an extraterrestrial calling itself the
Source.
When the Source recruits him to address some of the problems here on Earth,
Jim discovers that world leaders and criminal enterprises don't exactly
appreciate his meddling.
How was Jim supposed to know that trying to rid the world of evil would
leave people wanting him dead?

I was born and
raised in the cold and beautiful Minnesota, but I escaped to Illinois for
seventeen years to raise my two boys, and now I call Florida home. My husband
Andy, who’s always been my hero, has put up with my late night computer typing
and endless stacks of papers with my stories on them. We have one furry friend
as family: Chip, a sixteen year old ragdoll cat.
Life has been
full of ups and downs, but I’ve made it through the hard times. I love to
travel and go to Disney World to trade pins.
I’ve been a bowler for many years, and you can catch me writing my next
novel at the lanes.
I encourage you
to check out my web site, www.sonjagunter.com

through in my stories.

in order to do what he knows is right and give them a fighting chance, Flynn
will have to risk everything by doing wrong.
Meanwhile, Kara can’t hide her declining health.
The Triam’s location remains elusive, and the window to get
the treatment she needs is closing. Unwilling to give in, or idly await her
fate, she hatches a daring plan to help save the city, even if it ends up
destroying her politically.
Because Titus’s army is marching closer to Glynfyls, and
they’re not alone.
With them comes a monster that threatens not only the city,
but the entire Breaker hierarchy. As the world watches on tenterhooks, Flynn
and Kara race against the clock to save their people, but there’s no guarantee
they can save themselves.

troubled father, a ruler fighting to secure her legacy, an heiress obsessed
with knowledge, a woman torn by love, an archer chasing glory, a man harboring
a hidden past, and a noblewoman caught between two worlds—each holding a piece

Born and raised in India, Praneet’s life began immersed in a
medley of cultural, linguistic, and spiritual traditions that sparked his
passion for storytelling. Then, he moved to the United States and has now spent
more than half his life there. The two cultural backgrounds have led him to
embrace a fusion of Eastern and Western philosophies that deeply influence his
writing.
Praneet also spent the better part of two decades working as
an engineer and flight instructor, which instilled in him a precision that he
brings to his existence-building, pursuing that perfect blend of reality and
fantasy. His exploration of philosophy and psychology at an early age allows
him to imbue his stories with age-old themes of identity, purpose, and destiny.
These themes play a central role in his debut novel, The Staff of Beckoning,
Book 1 of the series A Symphony of Spheres.
Praneet lives in Vermont, embracing a homesteading
lifestyle, community involvement, and writing while pursuing a master’s in
counseling.
