    When Heaven Intervenes in the World of Men 
    (Author's Narration) 
    A prophetic voice for our age, A LeRoy crafts magical tales steeped in Biblical themes. The books in this collection combine otherworldly visions, leaps through time and space, and face-to-face encounters with the Almighty Himself. 
    But those encounters are made possible only by the loving interventions of Jesus, embodying his role as Friend and Intercessor before the throne of God. If you love the imaginings of C.S. Lewis, these stories will call to your heart. 
    1. The Christmas Tree 
    A tree is torn from his forest home and all that he loves. All seems lost, until a little boy takes up his cause. 
    In the words of one reviewer, this story "packs more punch than 12 volumes of theological discourse" as LeRoy combines the traditional Christmas story with themes of death and resurrection, otherworldly revelation, and courage led by divine calling. 
    2. The Prince's Oath 
    In this traditional Afghan tale, love will undergo many trials with God's help, even if it comes in the form of a cheeky little mouse! 
    3. Obama's Dream 
    About to hand over the keys of empire to Donald Trump, Obama's dreams are troubled. But Heaven intervenes with two great angels sent to redeem him. That's if they can overcome Satan's campaign of accusation! 
    “Profound tales of hope that demand you listen to their wisdom.“ 
    Andrea L. Stoeckel, Rockinrev Review 
    "I recommend the audio adaptations read by the very talented author and actor, Abdiel LeRoy." 
    William Mortensen Vaughan 
    "LeRoy has an active and practical understanding of the Christian Faith, and he is a gifted writer of parables that illustrate this." 
    Landon Schultz, pastor

    A painfully truthful, darkly comic take on contemporary life and how to survive it.
    A chance encounter at a conference hotel plays upon Kitty's mind as she struggles to balance personal freedom with family life, fidelity and a testing job. Her husband seems more interested in misplaced apostrophes than his marriage, her parents are looking down the barrel of oblivion and, although she might toy with joining a gym, Kitty's running out of time for big changes.
    'the best new play to have arrived on a British stage for at least a year... unsparing observation, baleful humour and underlying compassion... a richly rewarding gem of a play' - Telegraph
    'wonderfully funny and painfully accurate... hits nail after nail on the head' - Independent
    'Everything about the play rings with a horrible truth, and the writing is consistently funny and flecked with pain' - Whatsonstage.com

    In this bilingual poetry collection, Roberto Germán, shares writing across 20 years of his life. The poems tell stories of love, relationships, race, identity, and everyday living. These subjects divide the book into three parts. The poetic forms include free verse, rhyme, haiku and more, all relatable and real with vivid detail. As he explores what it's like to be a young man growing into his identity, the readers are invited into a rarely explored point of view with this level of imagery and sensorial writing: life through the young adult eyes of a Black Dominican-American, son of immigrants."Blue Ink Tears is a work of emotional beauty, historical awe, and nostalgic reminiscence. What you've compiled here is a collection of experiences, not just poems, that will make young readers think and dig deep." Tanya Manning-Yarde
