Story Behind The Book

The inspiration for The Sleepwalkers came simply from watching the world - and America primarily - its transpiring events, and its culture today. As I've seen the bloated and reckless expansion of government in America I've likewise seen a citizenry that seemingly sees not and cares not. As I've watched world leaders overthrown and significant military buildups and movements, I've also watched an American culture that is absorbed in video games that simulate such events as the players remain clueless as to the legitimate threat to their soft, suburban existences. It is a culture that knows not and cares not that the greatest threat may emanate from within. Yes, The Sleepwalkers fiction was inspired by the darkness that in my view America is being swallowed up in while its citizenry is seemingly absorbed in the process of dulling its pain. There are watchmen at the wall and they are issuing warnings through alternative media sources, but who is listening? As the society has for the greatest part turned from God, how will it be saved? There is a darkness creeping and it is as much supernatural as natural, but there is a hope and a deliverance. The nation is in danger but there is a fortress and a strong tower for which to shield us. We merely need to open our eyes before it's too late. This is the story of The Sleepwalkers.
