Travelers Tale is an adventure series. A contemporary man, Jack Castro, feels that something is missing from his successful business and family life as he enters middle age. Although living on the idyllic central coast of California should be enough, he senses something more awaiting him. Several triggering events spur him suddenly and deeply into the first-century Levant, where a mysterious and beautiful guide leads him into direct encounters with the holiest and the unholiest of biblical characters. In the face of these experiences, or what he believes are true experiences, Jack discovers the traveler that he is. This catalyzes profound changes in himchanges that cannot be reversed or even stopped. Th rough them, he understands the revelation of God to him and how he is a manifestation of that revelation. He becomes the hollow instrument through which God plays His music into the world. In this this third book, Traveler walks the road to Calvary with Yeshua, the man later called Jesus. Through his participation with the disciples in the profound and horrific events of the Passion, he finds God permits him to enter the very mind of Christ.

Praise for Travelers Tale First Book: Discoverings: In Travelers Tale, Roger Fiola has produced the equivalent of an alchemical experiment. Mixing historical knowledge, imagination, and the anxieties of our broken age, he brings the reader to the reality of Christs presence. This first volume of a narrative series shows how the spiritual journey can be conducted, and how far it can lead. ~ Bruce Chilton, Author of numerous books on the historical Jesus and Scripture including: Rabbi Jesus: An Intimate Biography, Visions of the Apocalypse: Receptions of Johns Revelation in Western Imagination. Iddings Bell Professor of Religion at Bard College, Rector of the Church of St John the Evangelist. Travelers Tale First Book: Discoverings is at once a serious dive into issues of faith and truth and a compelling tour de force dialogue with the pivotal figures in the origins of Christianity. On his journey of discovery, Jack Castros questions and doubts are Everymans but his journey of discovery in this first volume is unique, a fascinating trip through ancient destinations with characters we have heard of but never known with such depth and intimacy. Its a wild ride through the magic and mystery of a sacred and powerful time, loaded with wisdom and wit. ~ Ellen Gunter, Author, Earth Calling: A Climate Change Handbook for the 21st Century

At twenty-three, William Simon Baekeland was well on his way to becoming the world’s best traveled person. The “billionaire” heir to a great plastics fortune had already visited 163 countries, but his real passion was finding ways to visit the world’s most challenging destinations—war torn cities, disputed territories, and remote or officially off-limits islands at the margins of the map. He earned rock-star status in the world of extreme travel by finding ingenious ways to bring the world’s most widely traveled people to difficult-to-reach and forbidden places. But when his story began to unravel, an eccentric group of hyper-well-traveled country collectors were left wondering how they had allowed their obsession to blind them to the warning signs that William Baekeland wasn’t who they thought he was. Mad Travelers: A Tale of Wanderlust, Greed and the Quest to Reach the Ends of the Earth delves deep inside the subculture of country collecting, taking readers to danger zones like Mogadishu and geographical oddities like Norway’s nearly impossible-to-reach Bouvet Island. Along the way, this raucous tale of adventure and international intrigue illuminates the perils and pleasures of wanderlust while examining a fundamental question: why are some people compelled to travel, while others are content to stay home? Mad Travelers is a perceptive and at times hilarious account of how the pursuit of everywhere put the world’s greatest travelers at the mercy of a brilliant young con man. Soon to be an HBO documentary.

Under the dictatorship of Enver Hoxha, all Albanian citizens had their own biografi, a file that was maintained (and often falsified) by the secret police. The information contained in a person's biografi could have devastating effects. When Lloyd Jones visited Albania in 1991, six years after the dictator's death, he heard rumours of a village dentist who, resembling Hoxha in looks and build, had been forced to give up his identity and become the dictator's double. Jones' quest to find Petar Schapallo gives shape not only to an intriguing traveller's tale, but a story about identity-changed, lost or falsified-in a country where identity was strictly controlled.
