The Scars of Gaia

by R.P. Lauer

Overview

In the war torn world of Gaia, only two nations have survived the years of conflict. One covets power and strength, while the other covets science and knowledge. Both believe that they alone follow the true path of God.

James, a poverty-stricken merchant in the nation of strength, struggles to provide for himself and his mother. In his travels, his life will become intertwined with Claire; a scientist on the wrong path from the rival nation of knowledge. They meet on a day like any other, but events will transpire which alter the course of fate.

Together they will discover answers for their own lives, while also uncovering deeper secrets within the world around them. Can the two of them help bring compassion to a world of arrogance, oppression and brutality? As they begin to unravel the thread of truth and myth, they will be forced to ask:

Can compassion heal The Scars Of Gaia?

About the Author

R.P. Lauer would say that he is not a writer. Instead he would say that he simply had an idea one day and ran with it. That is his story and he will stick to it. So what exactly is he then? R.P. Lauer is first and foremost a husband and a father; anything else would be secondary. At the top of the secondary list would be a web coder, having spent more than a decade hand coding sites in Notepad. His love of coding stems primarily with programming and problem-solving due to the logic involved. Otherwise, his interests are too varied and nonspecific to be of any use listing.

His debut novel may end up his only full publication; it was always intended to be a one-and-done story. And he has stated that as it took over forty years to come up with his first actionable plot idea, who knows if and when a second idea could strike. He has played with the idea of a direct sequel to The Scars Of Gaia, but unfortunately, only time will tell if that idea comes to fruition.

As of this writing, he lives in North Carolina with his wife, three children, two cats, and dog.
