I have written ten books that are available. If you live in NZ, these can be bought right now cheaper on this website than anywhere else. If you live elsewhere I’ll let you know how to get them. Three new books were written fairly recently: A Spiritual Roadmap, Towards the Writing and Performing a New Mystery Drama, and This War is Not Inevitable. And the most recent creation is something I’ve put six years of my life into – When the Will Awakens – the mystery drama that follows the Fourth Mystery Drama of Rudolf Steiner.

How to get a hold of the new mystery drama, When the Will Awakens:

I’m at present under an obligation not to register this book – i.e. it does not have an ISBN number and will not be available through the usual large distribution outlets. (You might find it in a shop but only if me or one of my agents has arranged to place it there.) The book is priced at US$33 plus postage. (At current exchange rates this works out to 28 euro, 25 English pounds or 44 Australian dollars or 48 New Zealand dollars.)

If you are in Australia or New Zealand, send me an email and I’ll send you my bank details and have it sent to you. I can do this also in other parts of the world but need to be paid via paypal. Or the following agents will send you a copy:

(d) Books to come:

The Working of the Spirit. See under Mystery Drama

Working with the Word. A book that will appear firstly in Chinese but will later be published in English. It is about the Word, the Logos, and how forming a personal relationship to it can change our culture in many areas of life. One of its features is that I have invited fourteen different people, each one a master of their own field, to write about how the Word is changing the world in their kind of professional activity. This book may be self-published as I have done with Thirty-three Meditations and Seasons of the Soul or I may go to an overseas publisher, Floris or Steinerbooks.
