Heaven And Earth By Arturo Riojas

Heaven and Earth by Arturo Riojas is a thought provoking sci-fi/fantasy novel with a strong persuasive influence. The writer has very strong beliefs backed by plenty of research and the result is a very informative and touching story that will leave you wondering, what exactly is going on around us while we are clearly unaware?
