“In a deep dream I saw an Alchemist, his back to me, speak an indistinguishable chant to a wilted, dead rose. Instantly it returned to life, radiantly beautiful again. Then the Alchemist spoke in a strange base voice, stating, ‘I am V’– and he disappeared. I woke up knowing he wanted me to write his story,” Jack Groverland states.
“Alchemist V and his Power Over life, Love and Death” (published by Balboa Press) tells the story of an older man, a paraplegic who is offered the opportunity to steal and inhabit the healthy, young body of an innocent young man by a devious alchemist who has been living in stolen bodies since the 13th century. Will the older man leave his wheelchair and pursue the girl he loves? Will he murder for his own freedom and love?
An excerpt from the book reads:
Likewise, he was assured the game of life had no secret power vying for or against anyone. You were on your own to play the hand you were dealt. There was no sin, no bad karma, as Buddhists define it, only the immediate consequences of your decisions and the fickle factor of luck.
“This novel will challenge the readers to evaluate their understanding of what is truly right or truly wrong,” Groverland says. When asked what he wants readers to take away from the book, he answers, “Not everything they see or think they know is what it seems to be.” For more details about the book, please visit https://www.balboapress.com/en/bookstore/bookdetails/828068-alchemist-v
