Crimson Wings - The Boy Who Flew


 In a city choking on smog and secrets, one boy finds hope in a creature thought lost to legend.

1940s London is no place for a quiet, odd boy like Henry Portwhistle. Orphaned, bullied, and living under the iron rule of a cold-hearted matron, Henry survives by staying silent and unseen. But when he discovers a strange, warm egg on the banks of the Thames, his world begins to change.

From that egg hatches Crimson—a dragon of myth and memory, a creature who speaks not in words but in feelings, and who understands Henry in a way no human ever has. Together, they flee the city under cover of fog, soaring north through war-torn England in search of freedom, safety, and belonging.

But the world is watching. Whispers of a dragon reach Westminster, and soon, powerful eyes turn toward the skies. With war looming and loyalty tested, Henry must decide who he is willing to trust—and how far he will go to protect the only family he has left.

A story of courage, friendship, and quiet resilience, Crimson Wings is perfect for readers who love historical adventure with a touch of magic.

✔ Ideal for ages 10+
✔ Includes themes of autism, loss, and chosen family
✔ A fresh take on dragons for fans of

  Book Cover Man in Filed


The Cecil Addo Story:

The Story About A Ex-Slave


A legacy forged in chains. A future built on courage. A story that will stay with you forever.

In the hauntingly beautiful town of Oakridge—where towering oaks whisper the secrets of the past and shadows linger over cobblestone paths—Cecil Addo rises from the ashes of slavery to forge a future no one thought possible. Born into bondage on the sprawling Rubwick plantation, Cecil knows only hardship, injustice, and the weight of generations lost to oppression. But with an unbreakable spirit and a fierce desire for something more, he dares to dream of freedom.

Then, the unthinkable happens.
In a twist of fate that defies the norms of a broken society, Cecil is granted not only his freedom but also a piece of the land where he once toiled as a slave. Gifted by his ailing former master Toby Rubwick—a man haunted by guilt and legacy—this land becomes both a sanctuary and a battleground. For Cecil, it is the start of a new life. For Oakridge, it is a symbol of uncomfortable change.

But freedom does not come without a cost.
As Cecil and his family strive to transform the Rubwick estate into a beacon of prosperity, they face rising tensions, vicious rumors, and the ever-present threat of those who refuse to let go of the past. Whispers of stolen inventions and betrayals begin to swirl. In a community still grappling with the end of slavery, the Addo family's rise is seen by some as an inspiration—and by others, as a threat.

Through brotherhood with fellow survivors like Marcus, through battles of loyalty and betrayal, and through a quiet revolution built on dignity and labor, Cecil charts a path for generations to come. Yet, when the storm of hatred finally descends upon them, Cecil must decide whether the land he fought so hard to earn is worth the price of everything he holds dear.

The Cecil Addo Story is more than historical fiction—it's a sweeping, emotionally charged saga of transformation, resistance, and the human capacity for grace and redemption. It captures the spirit of those who endured the darkest parts of America’s past and dared to build something beautiful from its ruins.

Perfect for fans of RootsThe Underground Railroad, and Twelve Years a Slave, this powerful novel will captivate readers who crave stories of survival, legacy, and the unyielding hope that defines the American spirit.

Living Above the Chaos:

The Pathway to Personal Creation

By Owen Thomas Ashton, MD, ABVLM


What if everything you believe about yourself—and the world around you—is only part of the truth?

Living Above the Chaos is not your typical self-help guide. It’s a transformative journey written by a physician who has walked through both inner turmoil and spiritual clarity—and invites you to do the same. With a voice that is both deeply personal and boldly philosophical, Dr. Owen Thomas Ashton challenges readers to break free from the illusions of ego, fear, and conditioning to reconnect with something much deeper: your original perfection.

This book doesn’t promise quick fixes or surface-level motivation. Instead, it dares you to examine the story you’ve told yourself your entire life—and to ask whether you’re ready to surrender it for something more powerful, more truthful, and more peaceful.

Rooted in both scientific and metaphysical principles, Living Above the Chaos explores topics like intuitive awareness, natural law, and the Universal Subconscious Mind. It speaks to the deep, unspoken longing in many of us: to remember who we truly are before the world taught us who to be.

Through stories of personal transformation, meditative insights, and moments of spiritual awakening, Dr. Ashton makes the case that chaos is not something to be avoided—it’s something to rise above. In doing so, we rediscover the joy, love, and clarity that were always available to us… if only we would stop resisting and start remembering.

"You are the latest version of God’s greatest vision—perfect, powerful, and ready to remember who you truly are."

—Dr. Owen Thomas Ashton

If you’ve ever felt like something within you is meant for more—more peace, more understanding, more connection—this book offers not just permission, but a pathway. Because the project isn’t the world. The project is you.

And you were always meant to live above the chaos.
