For fans of Mitch Albom, Paulo Coelho, and Elizabeth Gilbert, Journey is a novel of magical realism that takes the reader from the NYC high-tech corporate world to the mystical city of Glastonbury, England. Amazon’s #1 New Release for metaphysical fiction in 2020, Journey is a tale of both spiritual and emotional awakening. In his effort to be the next CEO of Ascendant, a New York-based tech giant, Paul Moore neglects everything―his family and himself―in his race to the top. But a trip to Glastonbury, England changes everything. A complete counterpoint to Paul’s corporate day job, Glastonbury is a spiritual Disneyworld, catering to would-be witches, goddesses, druids, fairies, neopagans, and burned-out hippies. Exploring the city, Paul is drawn to the energy of a nearby hill―Tor―said to be the mythical Isle of Avalon of Arthurian lore. At Tor, Paul meets a beautiful soul reader, Christine, who plants the seeds that turn his life upside down. Returning home, Mary, Paul’s wife, sees the changes in him and is both scared and intrigued as she watches him struggle to navigate between the business and spiritual worlds. When a series of synchronistic events pull Paul to return to Glastonbury and Christine, Mary reluctantly agrees to share his journey back. They depart, both unaware that their lives will never be the same. Journey is a story inspired by real events. Part of a planned trilogy.
