In the middle of the strangest storm in history an airliner crashes into the ocean and only three young people survive – a brother and his two sisters. But they are not together, and the ocean is not on Earth. Alex, Amanda, and Tori Lancaster have entered Boreth, a world of ancient devastation and deep evil. Through this world they must travel with every choice taking them closer either to endless night or overwhelming glory. But this journey is not for them alone … it’s for all those who are lost and can’t find their way home.

What readers say:

“Your book irrevocably shaped my understanding of the power of literature. The allegory, the imagery both vicious and blindly beautiful, the way you depicted trauma and betrayal and forgiveness and the deep, abiding capital-L Love – I have carried that with me as the standard to which I have held all other works of fantasy/speculative fiction. It’s still the most profound work of fiction I’ve ever read.”

“In this novel, Coleman Luck accomplishes one of the most difficult tasks a writer can undertake — to create a completely fresh, new and very believable world. The book is an excellent read — imaginative and fast paced and full of wondrous, subtle connections with the finest developments in Christian thought. So good it seems like it came from Lewis, Tolkien or one of the other great masters. A must!”

“I’ve NEVER read any book of any kind that took me on such an emotional and spiritual journey. At times I couldn’t put it down, other times I HAD to, just to catch my breath. There were times that I felt MY faith was being put to the test. Other times I began to worry about the author’s faith. But at the end of the day, I’ve never read a more beautiful story of redemption, love and faith. And I can’t wait for Mountaincry!”

It is almost Christmas and two brokenhearted men are about to meet.

For years, Jorge Mendoza has been working hard at Children’s Hospital, cleaning restrooms, making beds, doing the things that others do not want to do…and all to bring his wife and little daughter to America. Through those years, Jorge has brought joy to others. He is a puppet maker and he gives away his creations to suffering children. But now, just before Christmas, he learns that his wife and little girl will not be allowed to join him.

Eddie Gartman is a young man who is locked in the narrow world of Down Syndrome. His mother has died and his whole world is turning upside down. On his way to a special home for people with his condition, Eddie jumps out of the car and runs. His journey takes him through the streets of Los Angeles, as he searches for “The Singing Place”.

These two men, who do not know each other, are about to meet. In that meeting they will learn that miracles are never free. And the greatest miracles always cost the most.

Coleman has dedicated this book to the memory of his little sister, Virginia May Luck, whose life had such an impact on others, though she suffered from Down Syndrome.

Non-Fiction

Imagine a hospital where the lead surgeon was a carefully hidden serial killer who got pleasure and made money from bringing slow and excruciating death to his victims. Imagine a hospital where evidence about this murderer was beginning to mount. His acts were becoming clear. People were crying out in pain at what he was doing, yet, in spite of all the evidence, almost the entire staff continued to defend him, even blaming his victims for their wounds and throwing them out of the hospital to fend for themselves. Those who were trying to speak the truth were thrown out too. Sound insane? That is what is happening within many churches and Christian organizations. Most Christians don’t know how to recognize spiritual wolves, nor do they even have the desire to do so. Though wolves may be mauling, Christians turn blind eyes to their attacks, allowing the damage to continue and the cause of Jesus Christ to suffer great loss. In the process, the wounded victims are further victimized by the attitudes of ignorant, cowardly people.This book has been written to help those brave people who are willing to stand against the evil that is sweeping through the church.

Neurosurgeon, Dr. Eben Alexander, was brain dead for seven days. During that period he believes that he went through death’s door and experienced the incredible beauty of Heaven. While he was there, he was given a message to bring back to the world. For him, the vision was life-changing. From being a scientist and a secular materialist, his worldview was transformed. Because of what happened to him, he now believes in the miraculous and in a life beyond death. But did he experience reality? Was the message that he was given true?

Coleman Luck has spent decades studying illusions and the paranormal, both as a professional writer in Hollywood where illusion is the stock-in-trade, and as a mentalist and member of the Academy of Magical Arts at the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. Also, he is a student of the Bible, educated at the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago. From this unique perspective Coleman examines the profound visions and truth-claims presented in Proof of Heaven.

The personal experiences of former Army infantry First Lieutenant George Coleman Luck Jr during his year in Vietnam – 1968

2000 years ago Jesus Christ said that His Kingdom was not of this world. His followers have been trying to prove Him wrong ever since. During the past 40 years, the evangelical Christian Church in America has undergone a transformation. In an attempt to reshape the country in order to restore a moral, Biblically-based foundation, conservative theology has been married to conservative political thought. For many people, to be a “social” conservative Republican and a conservative evangelical Christian mean the same thing. Has this transformation been positive or has it been a lethal form of syncretism?As an evangelical Christian since childhood, Coleman Luck has been raised in the church. He studied the Bible at the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, where his father, the late Dr. G. Coleman Luck, was a professor. However, a few years later, Coleman’s life took an unexpected turn. After doing graduate study at USC, he entered the entertainment industry of Hollywood as a writer. A few years later he became a television producer and the Showrunner of the hit television series of the late 1980’s, The Equalizer. Coleman has had a unique vantage point from which to view the cultural and political wars of the last decades. It is from this double perspective, as both an evangelical Christian and a long-term member of the Hollywood community, that Coleman has written The Curse of Conservatism.
