Inks and Bindings’ Latest Collection Unites Unlimited Creativity and Striking Reality with Riveting Works

Pushing the bounds of fiction and nonfiction, five dynamic authors unite to present the breadth of their most captivating works. Whether exploring alternate realities, fighting for humanity’s future, honoring family history, promoting holistic wellness, or revealing novel viewpoints, F. Jay Falone, Rand McLester, Norman Kelker, Tonya McBean, M.S., and Harold Toliver deliver powerful narratives that promise to engage, uplift, and enlighten readers of all ages.

Ready to embark on a thrilling science fiction journey that intertwines time travel, cosmic partnerships, and daring quests with a compelling exploration of humanity’s shared destiny, author F. Jay Falone presents his latest work, “Time Messenger.” As an asteroid hurtles toward Earth 65 million years in the past, the fate of humanity rests on a daring quest to rescue a long-lost, secretive civilization—the Tarsi.

At the core of the narrative lies a secret only known by a few: President Truman, Albert Einstein, the protagonist’s father, and ultimately, the protagonist himself are aware of the full ramifications. Not only ancient creatures, the Tarsi are humanity’s future allies in 2007, engaged in an interplanetary conflict with a menace that could end the human race. The goal is clear: make sure the Tarsi survive the collision of an asteroid that would cause extinction. Humanity will not be able to withstand the dangers of the twenty-first century if they do not. But time itself becomes both an ally and an opponent, because changing the past has unthinkable consequences. “Time Messenger” by F. Jay Falone combines science fiction, historical mystery, and suspense, prompting readers to think about how far humanity will go to protect the future and who they will become in the process.

Combining the exhilarating adventure of Indiana Jones with the grand narrative of The Lord of the Rings, Rand McLester’s “Fifteen Billion Years I: Alpha and Omega” launches an exciting new trilogy influenced by the vivid apocalyptic themes found in the Book of Revelation. In a near-future world, this genre-defying novel delves into the destiny of humanity with an expansive tale that intertwines time travel, cosmic boundaries, military intrigue, and the eternal struggle between light and darkness.

At the heart of the narrative lies a repurposed copper mine, now masquerading as a scientific establishment, yet in reality, it serves as the globe’s most formidable military stronghold, overseen by a merciless general. Two men possess a thrilling secret: the existence of a time machine. What starts as a covert mission quickly evolves into an interstellar adventure, soaring through galaxies and weaving through timelines. The explorers stumble upon an ancient society beyond a black hole, only to find themselves back on a deteriorating Earth dominated by a ruthless Federation. In the looming darkness of impending doom, their quest emerges, with humanity’s destiny teetering on the edge. Brimming with camaraderie, belief, and resilience, “Fifteen Billion Years I: Alpha and Omega” by Rand McLester transcends the typical post-apocalyptic thriller, serving as a daring exploration of origins, conclusions, and the unwavering hope that connects them.

Shifting to non-fiction, author Norman Kelker in his captivating work, “Immigrant Family: Three Centuries in America,” retells the multigenerational, sprawling tale of the Kelker family, from a catastrophic transatlantic crossing in 1743 to their varied presence in 21st-century America. Drawing on the biographies of family members notable for their achievements, service, and even oversights, this meticulously written account provides a historical and personal window into almost three centuries of American history.

The journey starts when the Kelkers leave Switzerland and settle in Dutch country in Pennsylvania in order to start again. Ten-year-old Anthony Kelker would go on to serve as a Revolutionary War soldier, a county sheriff, and a state lawmaker, establishing a standard for future generations of public servants. The Kelkers gradually spread throughout the nation and took on a variety of jobs, including those of ironworkers, innkeepers, businesspeople, historians, a traffic engineer who assisted in the construction of Chicago’s first subway, and even national politicians. Modern branches of the family have produced NASA space scientists and soap opera actors, demonstrating their versatility. Kelker mixes personal experiences and historical background to depict resilience, ambition, and change for each generation. Norman Kelker’s “Immigrant Family: Three Centuries in America” is a poignant tribute to American immigrants, depicting how one family’s journey mirrored the nation’s history over three centuries.
