About the Author

Meet Phil Walker A lifelong career for him began when he was only 13 years old, as a radio broadcaster in his hometown, Fort Collins, Colorado. He says this was the year his voice changed. Over the next 58 years, he continued a much-celebrated career at radio stations in Colorado and Nebraska. He received recognition by state broadcaster's associations, for forty straight years, culminating in him chosen as Colorado Broadcaster of the Year in 1997. Writing began early. He estimates he has written 10,000 radio commercials and several million words of news copy. His first book, a non-fiction work on American Western history was the best-selling book in Fort Collins for nine years and reprinted seven times. To this, he added eight, hour-long CDs with music, sound effects, multiple voices - sweeping sagas of history. Over a hundred thousand CDs have sold to date. Serious writing of fiction novels began in 2002. Six more books comprising the Starlight Series joined his first book, The Galilee Foundation. Phil admits writing in the genre of Religion and Science Fiction was something of a tough way to crack the market. Then came the critically acclaimed The Black Angel, Crusade of the Black Angel, The Rangers are Coming, and the latest book, soon to be released, The Magic and the Misery. Phil Walker lives with his wife, Verna, a nationally known artist, in The Villages, Florida. When he's not writing, he loves the days in his garden. If you have finished reading this book, I would like to hear from you. I don't want to know what you liked about the book, although that would be nice, but rather what you didn't like about it.
