Stonehenge based on recent research into renewable energy: It shows
how its plan layout is the same as an idealized geocentric (fixed

to be capable of creating a spectacular visual description of a the

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">"To say this adventure novel was a surprise is an understatement.

<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">"The novel tells the story of Clend and Marce, a brother and sister, as they travel with their teacher, Sanoc, to witness a mysterious ceremony set in southwestern Britain in 2,750 BC. It seems they both have a special calling awaiting them and are instrumental in helping to solve a murder.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">"The novel is followed by an Epilogue which demonstrates the author's research and expertise in using untapped energy from the sun for all our good. You have to read it for yourself to understand the link between Clend and Marce's story and the Epilogue. I would recommend anyone to read this amazing book."</span><br />
