Robert Peterson Knihy

Peterson's weirdly fascinating environment will appeal to fans of epic world building, and the generous dose of ribaldry in the story is a welcome treat. --Booklist The apocalypse happened, but no one knows how. All that's left are a smattering of bizarro cities called remnants, each ruled by a grotesque potentate known as an Odd. If you wind up in hock to the Odds, they ship you to a chain-gang that stretches thousands of miles across desert, steppe, and tundra. A good-hearted drifter named Eldridge is a longtime member of the Chain. Known as the "Red Rook" because of his triumph in the Xiang Tournament of 2603--a battle royale of live-action battle chess--Eldridge nevertheless wound up on the Chain because...well, he's always getting in trouble trying to help his friends. But when El's best buddy Boris joins the Chain, he brings word that the Odds have declared war on their friends, each of them being held captive by a different Odd in a different remnant. Eldridge and Boris escape the Chain, kicking off a breakneck tour of a psychedelic post-apocalyptic landscape that includes a wild race along a subterranean river of mud; a visit to remnant that's like a massive ant colony; and a final showdown in a skyscraper-turned-temple that's toppled along a river of lava.

In his first and now classic book, Out-of-Body How to Have Them and What to Expect, Robert Peterson taught us the mechanics of out-of-body travel. In Lessons Out of the Body, he describes how we can benefit from those experiences. According to Peterson, who has been an avid out-of-body traveler for more than 20 years, OBEs help us learn important spiritual lessons and achieve greater happiness and self-awareness. They do so by allowing us to experience life from a unique, nonphysical perspective. To prove his point, he provides personal examples of what OBEs have taught him about love, dying, and even finding his soulmate. After explaining how OBEs differ from alien abductions, lucid dreams, and near-death experiences, Peterson teaches us to embark on out-of-body travels with a deeper purpose--that of learning, growing, and adventuring on a spiritual, as well as a physical, level. Finally, he includes tips for inducing OBEs, a troubleshooting guide, and a question-and-answer section.
