One Reader's Review
"The Thirteenth Time Zone"is an adventure book for men. The adventure leads the main character, a tough street cop working the night shift and high crime area of San Diego, to find his spiritual and feminine side of himself. Most men fight against acknowledging the spiritual and especially feminine part of their inner self. This fight leads, Owen, the main character in the book to becomes a hard fighting male that fights with his fists to dominate his surroundings. He wins the external brawls, but continues to lose the fight of the interior man. That loss drives him on an adventure to find something he knows he needs, but he is not even sure what that "something" is, which makes the adventure even more intense.
Owen is a man that travels half way around the world experiencing, a hurricane in a small sailboat, commune living with hippies that turned their backs on the material world, hard drinking truck drivers hauling goods from England to Tehran. In addition, along the way he encounters highway robbers, sickness, enlightened monks in India and hunger and squalor on the streets of cities in India, Iran and Europe. But in spite of all the hard times, Owen, is always delivered to a new level of spiritual awareness and physical care. Delivery always came in the form of a person that would show up to give him just what he needed when he needed it. It happened time and again until the final person that shows up in his life is the ultimate gift and at a time and place that seems impossible to believe."
