As in The Fallen, the first novella in this series, in Twin Terror, Cusumano draws on his experience to create a thriller immersed in Easter Wisdom and intrigue. He seamlessly weaves together concepts from metaphysics, mindfulness, science and technology. In doing so, he taps into the power of Comic Consciousness to explore tragic events that befall the two protagonists, highly-gifted identical twins Sally and Sandra Brunel. The story follows them on a journey that begins at the emergence of these events through the pain of their impact, and finally to redemption and resolution. Sandra--The Bad Seed-- learns that ultimate redemption and ultimate freedom come at the ultimate price.

Cusumao's intent in this series of novellas is to stimulate the reader to consider new possibilities above and beyond so-called well-proven, logical concepts.

"Life is Beautiful: 12 Universal Rules is an essential sourcebook for humanity to manifest at our collective potential -- spiritual, social and scientific. It has brought together with great clarity, wisdom of the ages, spiritual physics with cutting-edge quantum physics and the very latest understanding of Consciousness itself. It is a book of epic importance, vital for our culture now. I have reread it several times. It can illuminate all of our teachings and can serve and can serve us to manifest our highest purpose in life.
