In Masks of the Universe, Edward Harrison brings together fundamental scientific, philosophical and religious issues in cosmology and raises thought provoking questions.

Yet every attempt to grasp the true nature of the universe creates a new "mask," People have always pitied the universes of their ancestors, believing that their generation has at last discovered the "real" universe. Do we now stand at...

However, when Rome unleashes a plot that would forever change their relationships, he also forces them to stand in front of a mirror and question just how strong their commitment to each other really is. They discover that even truth can contain deceit and are forced to fight through an avalanche of secrets that leave them on the verge of tearing each other apart.

LUCKY 12: It started in Brooklyn NY in a carpet shop. And the people that work there hit a big New York lottery. The owner of the carpet shop had also wanted to go west and live. Now he thought with the money he made he could build a town of his own, and the other hadn't thought about it, so he had a meeting with the other eleven and brought up his idea. About building a small town together, they pick Arizona, as the place. Three of them went out to see if they could find a place they found what they were looking for and the rest followed, they built their homes and raised their children and...

Too much time has passed him by and now it is too late. He has waited and waited for the right moment to make things right, but now that opportunity has been taken away from him in the worse possible manner. If only he had moved faster. If only he had not idly sat by watching these people as they wreaked havoc on everyone around them he may still have time. If he had stepped up and did something sooner he would not have suffered this loss. However, he will sit no longer because these people have lit a fire under him and inside of his heart that burns. Now, he will stand here until he does...
