The Trilogy Revelations














For anyone who might think that the three works of The Evermore Trilogy are nothing more than a seriocomical lightweight adventure and, therefore, an unimportant work of fiction, I offer the following thematic clues about them.

First of all, the three books comprising The Evermore Trilogy fit the definition of a trilogy because they contain some of the same characters and share these basic themes:

1) alien intrusion into human lives

2) the power and importance of "making a choice"

3) fate vs. destiny concepts

4) the folly of unbridled ambition.

But the most salient feature in each work is the single major revelation contained within. Evermore contains a revelation about "the source of life, itself", Time and Time Again offers a revelation about "the true nature of time and space" and Providence presents a unique insight into "the reality of life after death".

Someone once said, "Never judge a book by its cover." Truer words have never been spoken.
