Just finished reading East of Eden by John Steinbeck. Heartbreakingly beautiful with his writing, I had my highlighter out almost every other page. The whole book centers around 'timshel' which is the idea of free choice, and what could be better then that?

Just finished reading "Where Men Win Glory: The Odyssey of Pat Tillman" by Jon Krakauer, which was all right but not as good as his other books.

[John]

Hi Everyone,

My name is John Cicero and I am a fantasy/adventure author. My passion for writing is driven from the joy I receive from reading my stories to my children.

Watching the expressions on their faces as I take them on a journey through the magical pages of my imagination is what drives me to find the time to write.

My recently released novels are in the Rainbow's Shadow Trilogy. They are Rainbow’s Shadow and the Tablets of Fate and Rainbow’s Shadow and the Covenant of Wisdom.

As a passionate writer in Northeast, Ohio I have been fortunate to hit the Best Sellers list with 'Tablets of Fate' and am on track currently with the 'Covenant of Wisdom'.

The final novel in my trilogy is Rainbow’s Shadow and the Other Side of Paradise which is currently in development.

If you have a moment check out my website and Rainbow's Shadow Trilogy today at... www.RainbowsShadow.com

Take care, John
