ONEIRONAUTICUS
By Peter A. Luber
© 2003 Peter A. Luber
What if the myths about dreams are true? What if a second real world exists in dreams? What if one
person harnessed the metaphysical power behind that mythology? What if he could effortlessly manipulate every aspect of his dream environment at whim? What if he could transfer the spontaneous, limitless creativity of dreams to the physical realm, making earthly reality as malleable as his dreams? And what if this neo-Merlin is a sociopath who also stopped aging mentally at 14? Oneironauticus, is a real-world fantasy novel that asks and answers these questions.
Dive into the realm where dreams and reality intertwine! Join Alex on a grand rollercoaster ride of dreams and waking-life events that uproots his (and maybe your) notions of reality. His ethereal adventures explore the depths of dreams, power, guilt, betrayal, and love, while answering questions that he had never thought to ask.
Oneironauticus is a work of fantastic fiction along the lines of a Mark Helprin or Roger Zelazny, with a nod to the attitudes and mythos of the magical realism genre. Anyone who wishes they could alter reality at the blink of a dream will be pleased with this book. Oneironauticus is a 700 page novel.

SIMPLY
PAY
ATTENTION
2nd Edition
By Peter A. Luber
© 2015 Peter A. Luber
Eternal life. Transcendence. Nirvana. Heaven...
Promises, promises, promises!
For millennia we desired to believe that there was more, and for millennia someone was sure to tell us that yes, there was… but hopeful people had to take these prophets at their word. Their promise of salvation required a leap of faith.
Simply Pay Attention, 2nd Edition, offers an alternative to blind faith: humanity has at last shown that it is ready to explore that oft-imagined more, and there is no faith required to take that first step toward transcendence. Instead, salvation, eternal life, perfect joy, and all those other long anticipated post-human events lie within reach of any person willing to do two simple things: pay attention, and be nice to each other.
There is much to learn about the true creator of our universe, the power of thought energy, the true nature of our immortal souls. Simply Pay Attention opens the door to these, and more. Also, revolutionary, technological, philosophic, and societal changes are on the near horizon for mankind, and only the heartiest souls will survive them unscathed. Simply Pay Attention, will introduce you to a guide (you may have already met him in your dreams!) who could help you learn to ride the coming waves of change.
There is so much more to being human than simply making it through each day. Simply Pay Attention, shows you where to look for your more… the rest is up to you!

PARTY LINE
By Peter A. Luber
© 2009 Peter A. Luber
Sometimes it's not just a cigar…
An abyss looms just a few missteps off every traveler's path. Party Line peers into its darkness over the shoulders of seven uniquely linked and often troubled and occasionally heroic souls. Despite their variety of personality and routes taken toward despair, the seven share an opportunity to tiptoe clear of a long, dark fall, provided they forget themselves and work together toward real peace.
Party Line portrays these penultimate moments by looking out from within each character, through their dreams. Each chapter is a disturbingly familiar leap into the nightly journeys of Lou, Alice, and five other people. The splash of their adventures both transcends their mundane daily lives and provides adventure and symbolic experience that cannot be found anywhere else.
…and its all for a cause.
Party Line can be read from page one as a narrative (best done in one sitting, which may happen), but also can be opened randomly for a very different reading experience. However you read it, it will deliver unparalleled adventures and life lessons you will hold dear for a very long time.
