    Way of a Rebel by Walter M. Miller - No one knows the heart of a rebel until his own search for the reason of right or wrong is made. Lieutenant Laskell found the answer to his own personal rebellion deep beneath a turbulent Atlantic, and somehow, when the time came, his decision wasn't too difficult... 
    Lieutenant Laskell surfaced his one-man submarine fifty miles off the Florida coast where he had been patrolling in search of enemy subs. Darkness had fallen. He tuned his short wave set to the Miami station just in time to hear the eight o'clock news. The grim announcement that he had expected was quick to come: 
    "In accordance with the provisions of the Twenty-Sixth Amendment, Congress today approved the Manlin Bill, declaring a state of total emergency for the nation. President Williston signed it immediately and tendered his resignation to the Congress and the people. The executive, legislative, and judiciary are now in the hands of the Department of Defense. Secretary Garson has issued two decrees, one reminding all citizens that they are no longer free to shirk their duties to the nation, the other calling upon the leaders of the Eurasian Soviet to cease air attacks on the American continent or suffer the consequences. 
    "In Secretary Garson's ultimatum to the enemy, he stated: 'Heretofore we have refrained from employing certain weapons of warfare in the vain hope that you would recognize the futility of further aggression and desist from it. You have not done so. You have persisted in your blood-thirsty folly, despite this nation's efforts to reach an agreement for armistice. Therefore I am forced to command you, in the Name of Almighty God, to surrender immediately or be destroyed. I shall allow you one day in which to give evidence of submission. If such evidence is not forthcoming, I shall implement this directive by a total attack...."

    In this riveting exploration of one of the Bible’s most iconic stories, Reaching for the Heavens delves into the epic saga of human ambition, pride, and divine intervention. The Tower of Babel, an ancient symbol of mankind’s desire to reach the heavens and become like God, stands as a monument to the dangers of overreaching and the fragile nature of human unity. 
    Drawing on historical context, biblical insight, and rich storytelling, this book takes readers on a journey through the rise of the Tower—a colossal effort driven by the people’s collective will to conquer the heavens. But what began as an ambitious feat of engineering and unity soon spirals into confusion and chaos as God intervenes, scattering the people and confusing their languages. 
    Through a mix of profound reflections and timeless lessons, Reaching for the Heavens unpacks themes of pride, human folly, the fragility of unity, and the consequences of overstepping divine boundaries. It’s a tale of both human greatness and downfall, and the reminder that, while we may strive to build empires, it is only by the grace of God that we truly stand united. 
    Perfect for readers seeking inspiration and insight from ancient stories with modern-day relevance, this book is a powerful call to reflect on the pursuits of power, the need for humility, and the eternal quest to know our place in the vast design of creation. Will we build towers that reach to the heavens, or will we learn to walk humbly in the shadow of a far greater power?
