Remembering Stephen Mitford Goodson - Author of Inside the Reserve Bank

H Gibson with Stephen Mitford Goodson, December 2015, Pringle Bay, South Africa

Remembering Stephen Mitford Goodson - Author of Inside the Reserve Bank


"A fantastic person with a sharp mind, not scared to share his controversial views and factual experiences, willing to take on the most powerful of politicians and ANC cronies in his bid to expose the truth." - Ronald Gibson

Stephen Mitford Goodson, November 2016, Pringle Bay, South Africa

I met Stephen in 2011 at my first Author Appearance in Pringle Bay, South Africa. Sadly Stephen died on 4 August 2018.

It is always a loss to the Literature Community when an author dies. The saddest is that most authors only come into their recognition once they leave this world.

This is a sobering moment, to stop and reflect on your own work and what you have accomplished thus far, as well as what you are leaving behind.

Stephen will be remembered as the author of controversial books. I will remember him as a brilliantly intelligent, soft-spoken gentleman just wanting to get his books out into the world.

To the public out there, now so eagerly wanting a copy of Stephen's work, I wish to ask one question. Where were you when he needed your sale while being a living, breathing, individual?

Support authors, artists and musicians while they are alive. It will make a difference in their lives.

Living a Multidimensional Life, The NDE and Life Review of H Gibson, Author of Chronicles of Han Storm

Living a Multidimensional Life, The NDE and Life Review of H Gibson, Author of Chronicles of Han Storm


Would you be interested in reading this book?

 How many times do I need to die in order to learn to live?     
  I am Han, and this is my life-memory . . .

*** Foreword ***

    "Clear!" the ER doctor warned where I hovered in spirit form above the bed, watching them struggle with the blackened corpse, attempting to attach an IV into the shoulder.
    The electric shock of the defibrillator sucked me right back into my body.
    Awareness of their struggle around me made me moan in agony of being re-incarcerated into the worthless flesh.
    "We have you, do not worry, stay with us," Dr Ching encouraged, watching me, a mask covering his face.
    They had managed to secure the IV, Dr Kozaczynski stitching it in place not to be dislodged.
    'How fortunate I am to be surrounded by familiar people.'
    A random, out of place thought. It was not so bad to go through such a disaster while tended to by people you knew.
    Closing my eyes, I let everything go, slipping out of my body, briefly glancing back where the doctors were debating about amputating my fingers; whether or not I had sustained inhalation burns.
    Ronald was not there. My lifeline was not at my side as he always was.
    "Vitals dropping!" someone stated while the doctors scrambled to attend to the dying body.
    *Come, Han,* Sensaii beckoned.
    Listening to my lifelong spirit friend, I thought of The Land Beyond. There was nothing I wanted to do for my body. It was time to go home . . .

Excerpt, The Chronicles of Han Storm, Taming Encha, Book 3, Chapter One

Excerpt, The Chronicles of Han Storm, Taming Encha, Book 3, Chapter One


Taming Encha

*** One ***

        "She is my best bleeder" the bald man informed me, referring to an anaemic looking girl confined in a cage, staring listlessly into nothing. 

        "We keep the virgins pure, collecting their moons for the Master" he chatted informatively, leading me deeper into the cavern system, cages and containing gates lining the walls.

        "He indulges in their sweet scented blood, sustaining himself and his magics" he told me, stopping, unlocking a gate to a dark corner. 

        "But when he wants food, he prefers the blood of the breeders, especially those that are made to abort, for within their blood is the gift of eternal youth." 

        He opened the gate, indicating me to enter. 

        I walked past him into the cold damp of my cell, turning back to stare at his self-satisfied, sharpened tooth grin. 

        "What happens if you cannot find a pregnant woman?" I wished to know. 

        "Then we have to sacrifice a baby or a small child to satisfy his needs."

        He locked the gate securely before standing back, watching the disgust on my features.

        "It is nothing new. The breeders are not always susceptible to impregnation and the Master only wants to feed off pure humans."

        "Pure humans?" I wanted to know.

        "Yes, those people that are not eaters of man-flesh."

        "Then these breeders are not from your Clan?"

        "No, of course not! They are prisoners, as yourself. The Master is going to be overjoyed with your capture. A true Captain of the Newcomers."

Metamorphosis of a Dragon: Excerpt from Chronicles of Han Storm - Leilaka


Metamorphosis of a dragon

It is a tricky business to survive the metamorphosis of a dragon . . .


Excerpt from The Chronicles of Han Storm: Leilaka

"  Quiet surrounded us.

    We opened our eyes and stretched our neck, followed with our body, the spine clicking into alignment, the tail standing on end, straight back. Our legs we stretched until we were standing on our nails, arching our back like a cat.

    Poking our head out of the cave, we were met with falling snowflakes.

    We did not like the snow and felt irritation at this blizzard that was obscuring our sight.

    After drawing a deep breath, we exhaled, spitting a long streak of fire in a continuous release into the cold air . . .   "

Han Storm's CV: Excerpt from The Chronicles of Han Storm: Leilaka



Han Storm inadvertently presents his CV to a Leilakan Healer:

Excerpt from The Chronicles of Han Storm: Leilaka
"  "They call you Han, but that is not your real name, is it?" the Dwarf asked.
    I did not answer, finished tying my boots and sat down on the examination bed, allowing my gaze to run over the shelves of books that ran along the one wall.
    The Dwarf crossed his hands and placed them on the book in front of him.
    "Connor said you have strange dreams, speaking in languages they cannot understand."
    I nodded. It was a fact.
    One book drew my attention.
    I stood up and walked over to it.
    Touching the binding brought a tingle from my fingertips right down my arm.
    "You like books?" the dwarf inquired.
    "May I?" I asked, holding my arm steady, allowing the tingle to continue through my body, down to the rock floor.
    "Be my guest. It is an ancient book from the Elfes. No-one understands the language any longer, not even the Elfes."
    I took the book from the shelf, almost dropping it when a whisper ran through my body "*Do not fiddle with what will make things worse.*"
    I ignored the icy Shade, concentrating instead on the book. Sitting down on the hide that was spread on the floor, I traced the emblem on the leather binding. A seven-pointed star was enclosed in an upside down horse-shoe, the bottom arms of the shoe ensnared by a lazy eight lying on its side. Allowing the book to fall open at random, somewhere in the middle, I started reading to myself . . .  "

Death: What is Life?

Excerpt from Chronicles of Han Storm:
"  I gathered her into my arms, cuddling her fragile body close to mine. Her old age sent permeated my nostrils, driving the awareness of the mortality of the body home.
   "I wish for Death" she whispered.
   "Then stop breathing" I replied.
   She hugged me tight, giving three deep breaths before departing . . . 
   What is life but breath blown into a body? You start living with your first breath taken. The body dies after the last breath exhaled.
   But the Soul-Spirit lives on.
   I left my body in the Astral Way, joining my wife where she stood next to our bed, portraying herself as I have always know her, as I have always seen her; a young adult, beautiful and full of life.
   Together we watched the pathetic scene on the bed, our bodies intertwined, the one lifeless, the other devoid of life, yet alive.
   It was time to walk her over to the Land of the Golden Light.
   Soon, I too, would leave this life, not to return here, but to move house to another Dimension. "

Chronicles of Han Storm: Dare to become Addicted!

Title: Han Storm: The Chronicles of Han
Preserving Creata - Book 1 Part 1-7, Reclaiming of Duback - Book 2 Part 8
Author: H Gibson
Web: www.chroniclesofhan.com
Genre: Adventure, Science Fiction, Metaphysical

Reviewed by R. Gibson, editor of Chronicles of Han, 24 Aug 2010

Prepare to become addicted!


I have read 100’s of books, covering all spectrums  but never have I been this captivated. The Chronicles of Han is the story of a young peace officer that has psychic powers. He is tasked in regaining lost knowledge of science and inter stellar travel to save a planet abused by over exploitation and in the process expands his gifts.


The book, characters and storyline starts off undemanding and uncomplicated. As the story unfolds, the characters as well as the storyline matures, dragging the reader into the tale, causing you to feel and experience with Han. On occasion I found myself reluctantly having to put down the book so as to put a damper on my emotions, be it sadness or anger. As I progressed with the book I finally figured out why I would become so emotionally involved. It dawned on me that this book reflects a bit of each of us, causing you to identify either with a character or a situation.

As you get more involved with the tale, loads of questions pop up, just to be answered directly or by inference, causing you to think “but I knew that!”.

The down side of the book is that I now find most of my previous books dull and slow-moving.

Can’t wait for the next one.

Introductions to Chronicles of Han Storm Blogger

Introductions

It has been almost three years since starting to Blog on blogs.24.com/chroniclesofhan where most of the Bloggers moved on to a more Global platform. It is only the few diehards that are left. I guess it is time to move along, leaving my comfort zone.

I am a quiet sort of person, usually saying everything I have to say in my books. But sometimes there is a highlight in my life or a special event coming up like my new book launch over November/December 2013. I know fans would like to know about it and this would be ideal in keeping them up to date and informed.

Enjoy future posts.
