Paul is a top business executive hoping to be the next CEO of Ascendant - a New York-based tech giant. He neglects everything - his family and himself - in the race to the top. His fast-paced life is interrupted when he travels to Glastonbury, England, to visit friends in a village rich in history and mysticism.
Glastonbury represents a complete counterpoint to Paul's elite corporate day job. It compares to an amusement park, with shops and venues catering to spiritual seekers ranging from would-be witches, goddesses and druids, and burned-out hippies. Like many seekers before him, he is attracted to the energy of a nearby hill - Tor - said to be the mythical Isle of Avalon. Paul meets a beautiful soul reader, Christine, who reads his soul and plants the seeds that turn his life upside down.
When he returns to New York, his wife, Mary, is skeptical. Is Paul having a spiritual awakening or is he falling in love with an attractive charlatan? His journey both scares and intrigues her as she watches him struggle to navigate between the business and spiritual worlds. A series of synchronistic events draws Paul closer to Glastonbury and Christine, compelling him and a reluctant Mary to return, unaware that their lives will never be the same.
This is a story about Paul who has dedicated his whole life in his work with Ascendant, the world’s largest tech giant. His goal to climb the corporate ladder is at the cost of his own family which includes his wife Mary, and son Simon. A travel to Glastonbury England and meeting with a soul reader changes his life.
This book is a great journey as we follow Paul and his whirlwind life as he ascends through his life professionally. A meeting with the beautiful and mystic Christine, in the setting of the beautiful Glastonbury countryside, well known mystical past that attracts druids, fairies and goddesses, and now Paul. What a beautiful story and journey Paul makes to reach his mythical Isle of Avalon. Really enjoyed this one!
