It is an island frozen in time and space. For more than 3,000 years, the island of Avalon remained hidden from the outside world; a place of eternal magic, where the descendants of King Arthur ruled over a land filled with magical creatures, Elves, Dwarves and dragons. The island was only accessible through a rift in the Bermuda Triangle, where mariners and aviators disappeared throughout history. No one believed Avalon was anything but a myth.
In the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, in the heart of a naval exercise, Avalon suddenly reappeared, causing disruptions on both fronts. The US Navy, now circling the mysterious island, wants answers. On Avalon, they fear Outlanders would intrude on their home; and caught in the middle of it all is Lord Bryan MoonDrake, the Gil-Gamesh of Avalon, Knight Eternal and champion of the magical realm.
The Gil-Gamesh was once a US Navy sailor, lost at sea in a freak storm, who found his way to Avalon. After his family followed him to the island, they decided to stay and make this their home. Now they are torn between loyalty to their new home and compassion for their old one.

Bryce Lockwood has amassed a trove of unique military experiences during a brief span of time. Born on a small farm in rural New York State in 1939, he graduated from high school in Afton, New York in 1957. He soon made the decision to enlist in the Marine Corps and, in 1960, married his fiancee, Lois. In the next few years, his military career led to language school in Monterey, California, where he completed Russian linguist training followed by Cold War assignments in locations such as Scotland, Turkey and the former West Germany. However, the most unforgettable moment of his military assignments came with temporary orders for service aboard the USS Liberty - a U.S. intelligence ship. While serving as a Russian linguist aboard the vessel, he lived through an attack by Israeli warplanes and torpedo boats during the Six-Day War, resulting in the deaths of 34 and wounding 174 Americans. As the only U.S. Marine to survive the incident, Lockwood became the recipient of a Silver Star medal for rescuing three sailors trapped in flooded compartments in addition to receiving a Purple Heart for severe burns incurred in a torpedo explosion. Lockwood later served a tour in Vietnam and, in 1971, received a medical retirement after thirteen years of service. In recent years, he has sought the truth behind the unprovoked assault on the USS Liberty, which left many of his friends severely wounded or dead. In recent decades, Lockwood has joined other Liberty survivors in petitioning Congress for an open and thorough investigation of the attack.

The writer went straight to the root of the identity crisis in females and proffered solutions. Please, do not get carried away by the title of this book; Hey Girl!

Victoria-Ann Osigwe "I found this well-writer self-development book to be a wonderful example of a project that aims to and achieves in uplifting, encouraging and empowering the reader. The author did a masterful job in breaking down broad, and sometimes daunting, topics such as identity, personal development, relationships, sexuality and goal setting in a way that is very accessible and should be easy to understand for the intended audience. I especially enjoyed the chapters that looked into understanding the value in oneself and the one about how to set goals and form discipline to pursue and achieve your dreams. the points and explanations the author gave were practical and very applicable; the personal anecdotes from the author as well as examples of other successful and inspiring women in the real-world help to put into perspective how achievable dreams are and how powerful the reader truly is. Also, the reflection sections at the end of each chapter give a good moment of pause for processing and truly digesting what has been learned. All in all, I highly enjoyed reading this book, and while it is marketed to girls in their teen years, I believe any woman of any age and background could benefit from reading it if at least just to encourage themselves and remind themselves that they are valuable, strong and worthy of love, success and greatness. I learned a lot from it and I found myself remembering vital messages that can be applied to my own life while reading this book. Overall, I truly believe those who go on to read it after me will gain something valuable from it also." Ife Disu
