An Hour with Julia Greeley by Father Blaine Burkey Ofm Cap

Jirboa, Pleen, and Khadaran each support great civilizations, with rich histories and varying strengths. But the Jipadara sun is about to go nova, threatening all life forms with extinction if they remain.

The leaders of all three planets follow a cosmic and spiritually designed destiny that brings them into contact with each other. They are guided by a force that exists in a nether world, part of the indestructible matter from the creator but derived from their ancestors after their physical death. Although mostly invisible, this force, called Zen, occasionally intervenes among the people. As catastrophe approaches, it encourages them to escape.

Although the leaders strive to maintain their independence, it is only a matter of time before they realize the truth. Building on their knowledge, history, and strength, they and their scientists must work together in order to avoid the death of their civilizations.

Fr. Blaine Burkey, a member of the Capuchin Franciscans, was ordained in 1961 and celebrated his Golden Jubilee in 2011. His most recent published work includes a biography of Julia Greeley and he is known for his thorough and accurate research.
