Books

Through unique and thought-provoking plots, Michael J. Arend combines action, suspense, political intrigue, betrayal, fast-paced adventure, alien contact, and even a bit of romance in the first two books of a three-part series. Creating an experience that will take readers out of their traditional understanding of reality and cause them to consider the infinite potential of not only their own existence, but the existence of all that surrounds them.

BOOK ONE introduces readers to the main characters and follows them to the apocalypse and the birth of a new generation. After being chased by various factions, and coming to a critical realization about life, they make the quantum jump to the next dimension, leaving some of humanity behind to toil with what’s left.

BOOK TWO follows the same characters, who slowly come to understand that they have known each other before and now must focus on helping a more awakened and magical dimension move on to the next step.

With a myriad of twists and turns along the way, and an engaging “cast of characters,” Arend develops a picture of human existence- that we are all part of the whole, that we choose the details of our various incarnations, and that our purpose is to understand “the process” and learn about ourselves as part of one great, creating energy. An engaging and thoughtful storyteller, Mr. Arend will leave his audience anxious to read the final installment in this entertaining and inspiring trilogy.

You’re the One – Author’s Note

Can you feel it? I certainly can. Human spiritual awareness has grown to epic proportions in just the last number of years. I remember when I hit my lowest point in 2011. A point at which I no longer had the desire to continue on. Somehow, through meditation, spiritual readings, and a plethora of self-help books, I made it back to the world of the functional and decided I needed to give back. I was on a journey to become my greatest version and wanted to help others on their journey’s as well. As I discovered new avenues from which to help others, I started to notice that so many people had gone through similar circumstances, and wanted to do the same thing. 

Now, eight years later, I have witnessed the number of people that have adopted this new consciousness grow exponentially. Even science now agrees that our lives are about a spiritual unfolding. They now know, as the ancient spiritual traditions have known for thousands of years, that we can create our own reality with our thoughts, words and actions.

I wanted to write a non-fiction spiritual manual for helping people find their way through this new consciousness, that contained a short and reoccurring adventure story at the start of each chapter. As I began to write, however, it became clear this short story had become much too large. And so, I started to write an adventure parable that contained thoughts and principles I fully believe in. 

The story and characters contained within these two books are fictional, but the message behind the story, in my opinion, is true. I would ask that you keep an open mind when reading these books and if a thought or idea resonates with you, hold on to it. If it doesn’t, let it go. We are all at different stages in our spiritual journeys and there is no right or wrong. What we understand to be true for each of us is merely based on our perceptions and beliefs at that particular moment.

All you have to do is suspend your beliefs, perceptions, and self-doubts just long enough to take in the story and discover that, you, and indeed all of us, are The One.
