    About this ebook

    The God's Bracelet is a trilogy, consisting of the books "Finding Ishtar", "Double Hazard", and "The Mute Eye". Their genre is a blend of science fiction and fantasy. This book is a collection of 15 songs and poems of and by the main characters from the books of the trilogy. The poems do not follow any particular theme, meter, or style, since they belong to a diverse range of cultures: a cavemen huntress, a lizardwoman jet-pilot, a princess from a parallel universe, an alien deserter, or a mad goddess, and the main protagonist.

    If you enjoy these poems, you may as well enjoy the books of the trilogy themselves. Stay tuned on Smashwords to their upcoming publication.

    Thank you!

    Hello, dear reader! Whether you love fantasy or science fiction, I have something for you to read. My favorite genres are fantasy and science fiction, and I often blend them together. Such is the God's Bracelet trilogy and some other books of mine.My favorite topics are origins of the universe and the humankind, interaction between humans and omnipotent beings, parallel worlds, love, hatred, betrayal, and devotion.My characters are ordinary humans and other beings who face tough challenges and make difficult decisions.I reject cliches, standard scenarios, telltale names, and stories that are cobbled together.
