Summary

His recurring dreams of flying were just the beginning of an unforgettable journey...

George MacWhirtle Fleck's life is fairly ordinary until he falls off a roof. Suddenly, his childhood dreams of his body in flight come rushing back to him in a conscious reawakening of his belief in his own latent power.

Despite therapy and the frustration of his wife, George cannot be dissuaded from his growing obsession to fly - and the lines between his dream life and his waking life begin to blur.

One night, the "lightness" finally manifests and George's dreams come to fruition. He begins a secret life of developing his flying skills, and when his wife leaves on a long trip, George's adventures take him to places he has never seen, and expose him to danger, challenges, and a growing self-awareness that there is more to life than he has ever known, but only if he only practices what he believes.

A talking crow opens the way for George to travel the world, and then, he meets a mythical stargoose that takes him beyond his wildest dreams into a realm of breathtaking wonder.

If you've ever had a flying dream...

If you've ever wondered what the human mind is capable of manifesting, The Stargoose will touch your heart with the magic of the lyrical prose of Robert Siegel, the award-winning author of Whalesong, Alpha Centauri, The Kingdom Of Wundle and other novels.

The Stargoose is being published posthumously, and with a great reverence for Siegel's talent for revealing the mystical secret lives of animals and expressing them through the triumph of the human spirit.
