have had the
privilege to know Tray Caladan (aka Doug
Yurchey) for about a decade now, and I have
always had the deepest respect for this
man; both as a person and as a
multi-faceted artist. I realized he was
a genius as soon as I got to know him,
but although this is true, I must say he
has now outdone himself!
I have posted several
of his successful articles under his
real name, Doug Yurchey, in the "Guest
Writers" section over the years, but
they have mostly been either scientific, exopolitical, or "conspiratorial" in
nature; i.e. they have all been
non-fiction, just like my own articles
on this website. This time, however, he
has written a science fiction trilogy,
of which the first volume, "The
Continuum," now has been published both
as a physical book and in an e-book version.
I haven't read
fiction in fifteen years because I've
been so caught up in my own research and
writing; I haven't had the time to
engage in fictional books. When Tray
Caladan (which is his penname) contacted
me recently and told me the wonderful
news that he had been published, he also
asked me if I wanted to read his book. I was
hesitant at first, although I
instinctively knew it was good. I felt that I don't
have time to read fiction; I am just too
busy. Only because it
was Tray who asked me, I told him I
would read it.
I was stunned! Once
I'd opened the book and started reading,
I couldn't put it down. I am not
exaggerating if I say that this must be
the best science fiction novel I have
ever read. And believe me; I have read a
lot in that genre in my younger years! This book, "The
Continuum," is not only extremely
thrilling, but is also masterfully
written. Tray is artfully mixing fiction
with a good portion of truth, which
makes it an absolute page-turner! After
I'd read the first two chapters, I
contacted Tray immediately and told him
that I just had to promote his book on
my website. This is something
extraordinary because I haven't posted
anything to Illuminati News since
2009! I consider this website to be
finished, and I hadn't planned on
posting anything more, whatsoever. This
will be my only exception because people
need to know about this book, and people
need to read it. Even if you normally
don't read science fiction, or fiction
in general, I advise you to make an
exception, like I did, and get this book. You will
not be disappointed!

"The Continuum" -- An
Exclusive Presentation of Tray Caladan's
Masterpiece!
"The Continuum," a 400-page science fiction epic of
intergalactic proportions, has a lot of
parallels with the times we live in here
on Earth right now, as well as world
events that happened in the 20th Century
and earlier. Some of these parallels are
satirical in nature, and just like a
masterful epic should be, it makes the
reader start thinking about these events
from a new perspective, with lots of
"aha" moments. A few of these parallels
are:
A major parallel
in this first volume of Caladan's
trilogy is Adolph Hitler's rise to
power, which is seen in the devilish
character, Sardon, who
establishes a secret Chancellery. Are the
extraterrestrials out there really so
different from us that they are immune
to such an entity's abilities to
manipulate large populations? How many
such beings does it take to get a big
part of a galaxy under their
manipulative command? Does it take
hundreds? Thousands? Or, God forbid,
only one??? We saw what Hitler managed
to do before he was eventually stopped,
but what could a devilish dictator
accomplish if he had access to magic from
dimensions most beings have never
visited--or even from another, totally
different universe?
Can such an entity be stopped? Moreover;
is what happens here on our little
planet really unique for us humans, or
are we just a mirror of what is
happening on a grander scale out there
in the Universe? There is a Freemasonic
phrase which says, "As Above, so Below."
How applicable is this phrase?
TWB Press (a
Colorado publisher) recently made a
trayler of Tray Caladan's new book,
maybe like it were an Inde film. In fact,
Caladan
is up for "best new sci-fi writer" in a
large Book Festival in Baltimore,
Maryland (prestigious Compton Crook).
Here is the 1-minute
trayler, now available on YouTube:
Reviews:
The reviews of this book
have been excellent. Hollywood director
David Silva said it was "better than
Lord of the Rings." It's hard to imagine
a more favorable review than that. The well-known author of "The
Philadelphia Experiment," Brad Steiger,
wrote: "It was much better than you led
me to believe" (and Caladan actually
raved about it!) Also, the famous writer, Jim Marrs,
wrote in an email that he was anxious to receive a copy.
A synopsis
of the Novel in the Author's own Words:
Events concern a special (our
dream-parallel) galaxy known as
‘Pinwheel.’ Sardon creates the ‘dylar’
or Galactic Monetary Standard; seems
like a wonderful thing. Many star
systems now have a
common
currency and cosmic economy BOOMS!
But the Sardonic Devil secretly
drains Profits down a Black Hole.
Galactic prosperity is only an illusion
and
Citizens are enslaved.
A
legendary Being called ‘Zog’
(some believe is the Creator) from a
higher (larger) world appears down here
in the (smaller) physical plane. Zog is
a blue, spiritual-humanoid predicted to
‘save the world.’
Time passes as Zog returns to the
material universe through the eye of a
Quasar. The ugly Sardon returns to the
universe as a
cute, little girl
(Shirley Temple-character)
that has the whole galaxy fooled.
She (‘Mebby’) is really a
very powerful and deadly
android.
Long before the climax on Mebby’s ‘New
Movie’ set, there is a
100-Year WAR between Men and Women!
How could Women (militia
called ‘Vipers’) have taken total
control of the Pinwheel Galaxy? Answer:
Only Women developed the
‘Forbidden Secret’ of ancient ATOMICS!
'Readers
might not think points of HUMOR are in
‘The Continuum.’ But there are, such as:
The cartoon ‘Slap,’ a Quizo, ‘saving’ a
galaxy, making fun of the Devil’s (NY)
entourage and the ultimate resolution to
the ‘Sex Wars’ are
hilarious!
My sincere
dedication goes to
Douglas Adams of
‘Hitchhiker’s Guide…’ who made Science,
funny.
The actual climax
where the Next Cycle (Continuum) may or
may not happen…comes down to a
game of Tonk.
Will the ‘Savior-Superman’ (Neo Zog) or
light/energy/spirit that
is in us all…turn
over the tables of the
Galactic Reserve? Should Zog win the
game or lose? Will the 5th
Creator appear and spark a future?

led to being published].
"Son of Zog" and "The Cydonian War" are number 2 and number 3
in this trilogy, respectively. The top

The
Continuum – Excerpts
“Yes, Lord Boz. You will have your
Super-Soldiers soon. We have
discovered the link, you see, Lord? It’s
right here in the primeal gland. We have
struck our goal, the Eightoid ‘human’
Center. The subject will truly revert
back to its Beginnings from the Dawn of
Time. Average private clones by the
millions will be transformed into
monster-soldiers of your darkest
fantasies! Have you ever seen anything
like this before, m’Lord?” she asked her
Master.
“The inter-connect…ah,
port…yes, yes, excellent. You found it.”
Above, Sansion tried to whisper, “You
know what that means? Do you flagging
know what is about to EXPLODE right
below us?”
Each of the brilliant chemists felt the
fear in their ‘primeal glands.’ A GREEN,
MAD MONSTER WAS READY TO MATERIALIZE
directly underneath them! Who knows what
could happen? The ‘thing’ from
the Dawn of Time could kill them all on a
scale never seen before!
A blood-chilling SCREAM was
screamed from the emerald experiment on
the gurney with seemingly all the metal
on Aret bonding each member of his body.
Below them, the kids observed stark
terror in the insane eyes of the small
test subject, still in the act of
screaming his bloody/jade lungs out. The
lofty chem-wizards as well as the
frightened Cardille of Fanguard thought
they saw the Green Man grow muscles and
grow hair. He tugged against thick,
steel bonds to no avail. He stopped
screaming. The beast was quiet and
became motionless. In the retelling of
the story, it was the most
frightening quiet ever heard.
In the next instant, the horrible Green
Man started to laugh. Oh, it
laughed and howled like madmen do to
starless nights. The subject stopped for
a half ya and LAUGHED even louder!
Downstairs was flabbergasted and so was
upstairs. There was an overall sigh of
relief as tensions simmered down. It
seemed that nothing incredibly evil or
horrendously violent was going to
happen. What the Zog happened?
A big, timid, coy, gentle smile appeared
on a very relaxed little Green man in
ultimate/horizontal bondage. The subject
radiated loving energy. He was at his
Center. Everything was good and warm as
his eyes sweetly, calmly looked around
to a restricted degree. He actually
looked to the White Man out of a
Lichtenstein story and winked. The
subject was filled with the love of Zog.
The connection was really made and here
was a man-thing in touch with his true
Life-Center. He was in Nirvana.
He was in love with everything within
him and everything around him. The Green
man was at peace. He was at…the primal
Beginning.
“IT DIDN’T WORK! You MISSED center! You
were OFF! And, you were also…warned!”
A new kind of weapon like an ejection
mini-spear was engaged. White Man Boz
killed the Viper-Woman who took
responsibility for the 12th SSP failure.
Blue blood poured out of the woman’s
left breast. She collapsed.
“I really would not hurt a fleaba,” said
the beautiful and transcended, human
creature on the table that spoke
directly from his primeal heart
(affected by a placebo).
“Write down what he says,” Lord Boz
ordered another Admiral.
Green Man expressed with an emphasis on
pleasure: “There are such…COLORS;
lovely colors and moving patterns in
everything. Colors shouldn’t be
fighting colors.
APPRECIATE those of different Colors
and different views and in different
areas. Once…once…once you give them
this…y-y-your problems will be over,
ha…no one’s going to be fighting no more.
There’s such depth, distance and BEAUTY,
man…in everything. Don’t…don’t
you SEE it? It’s right there in front of
you, man…wow. Time is
taking…f-f-forever. You know you have
a hole in your ceiling?”
The hidden boys and girl froze. Boz and
the Admirals ignored the random comment…

MEAD D-chairs were the most amazing
innovation in recorded, robotic History.
It was unbelievable for Teran androids
to plug into a nervous system and
actually become legendary, feeling
‘human beings’ (the zogs) on the inside…
Robo-Stephen Davidson sat and operated a
D-chair from his messy apartment at the
present time. His synthetic hair was
long; his clothes were untidy and old
Veer containers were on the table. He
‘plugged-in’ and had his neat, clean and
well-dressed Bio handle the case.
Stephen worked the controls from a
distance. Central Interface sent him on
assignment. Agent Davidson liked to have
fun. While he controlled his Bio and
walked the ‘fleshy’ down a few dark
alleys, the agent embellished his
dreams. He enjoyed fantasies even more
than the real thing. I guess, that was
the purpose of ‘dream-chairs’…to enhance
reality. What Stephen did was way beyond
reality…
Nights were cold in SoHo; especially
when you’re on a case and the days are
forever and the nights are endless.
Then, it RAINS on you when you have to
meet up with one of the DeGroot boys
downtown on Yancy Street where they sell
Sicilian cannoli by the dozen. You catch
an A-train to Far Rockaway; passed the
rock that looks like a bear, over Yalta
Bridge and where does that leave you? It
leaves you LOST, man; lost in an ugly,
dark and wet city that doesn’t want to
know your name. You can’t shake the
feeling you’re being watched! How can it
be? The case isn’t important enough for
me to be tailed? Desmond was a nut-job.
The little Lebowski twins were LYING
about the secret formula! The dead body
WAS wearing plaid. WAIT…WHAT WAS THAT?
First thing you FELT was FEAR; fear that
stabbed you in the heart with an icicle
before it shot up your spine like
hot-electric rockets. What’s that in the
bushes? You duck down…yeah, you duck
down like a scared rabbit because you’re
afraid to die. You’d rather sweat out
another day of being a drunken flatfoot,
a private DICK no one will hire…rather
than face St. Revol on your knees.
You’re in an alley, next to a dumpster,
trying to snap a picture as the cold
rain pelted harder and you wonder; what
it’s all about? You just found blood’s
been pouring down your shivering face.
You think you see Jimmy in the dark, but
yer wrong. WAIT! Something IS in the
bushes! Is that a gun barrel across the
street? Now, you see a camera mounted
above you…shit…
“Huh!”
Davidson’s Bio turned 180 degrees and
saw something big. Last thing the human
heard was its killer yelling the word,
“Abomination!” The Davidson-Bio was
violently hacked to pieces! The
agent, back in his apartment, witnessed
his death. He viewed his own blood and
guts all over the alley…

Mebby was supposed to direct, but that
did not happen. A nameless director who
stood offstage was literally ‘faceless’
or blue-faced. There were many problems
with the ‘director’ according to ‘Mebs.’
He was forced to direct in painted
‘blue face.’ Later, a real
Director’s face will be attached to the
image of the old director by computer.
“We’ll take it from the kiss…action!”
‘Rad Carnoir’ (Pinn Bradley) [actually
Brad Pitt] bent down seductively and hit
his mark exactly.
‘Sheila-7’ (Mebby, THE DEVIL) was
nervous. The little girl’s red lips
quivered. Finally, their lips met.
The hard kiss was Nirvana. In the
blackness of closed eyes, the feeling
was the most incredible and mutual
feeling of pleasure. Then the magnetic
polarity changed…and it was SHARP PAIN!
Meb SCREAMED! “It’s YOU!!”
The child (android) in robo-character
spat out repeatedly in disgust and
horror. Her big moment (again) was
ruined by…him! Mebby was thrown
back in utter revulsion.
Cal-El’s face was seen instead of Pinn
Bradley’s face. Neo Zog was calm,
relaxed and smiled a golden smile. “Why
are you upset? I just kissed
the Spawn of Sardon.”
“Auuuuughaaaawwwwwgmmmmawwwoooooollllllgggnnnnnnn…”
She growled an unintelligible spew of
sick perversion and spit. Meb, the
Monster, crawled along the fake
landscape on all 4s like a blind vidor
ready to discharge deadly venom in every
direction. Then, she came to her
artificial senses. ‘Sheila-7,’
killer-sidekick, remembered the
‘gunslinger’ she was.
Her emotional vent stopped on a dylar.
“OH, ha, ha…” Meb FIRED what was not
a ‘prop’ gun! She blasted the red ray
again and again. N-Rays vaporized
large portions of fabricated terrain.
NZ, with blue aura, dodged each red beam
with ease. His graceful ballet
outmaneuvered light-speed Death Rays
every time.
Then he violently pushed her to the fake
ground. The athletic robo-girl sprang
back to his face; only this time she
planted a hard kiss on the lips.
In a microscopic nanu of a split ya, the
Zog had an idea with his eyes closed. He
went with the kiss, which definitely
surprised the succubus. She relaxed for
a moment and was ‘putty in his hands.’
Tongues touched.
Meb’s (mental) shields dropped and HE
GRABBED THE GUN off her belt! Now,
who was in control? The Gun could
penetrate her Force-Field. The Gun could
blow her to pieces and end galactic
madness by one pull of the trigger.
Cal-El, instead, shot blue rays out of
his three eyes (unseen 3rd in forehead)
and destroyed the small piece of the
Ultimate Weapon.
Mebby was near tears. “You destroyed…my
GUN.”
“Yes, dear…a gun whose only purpose was
to destroy you.”
“Hmmmm…think you’re so smart?” the Devil
spoke deeper with her thin arms
stretched in a Mystic position of
rays firing from fingertips.
“No,” Cal answered. “I have partial
knowledge.” He calmly sat.
With arms still stretched out like
daggers, she breathlessly asked, “What
have you come here to say?”
“Here we go. ME?” Cal said in
sadness and disbelief. He demanded,
“What have YOU to say?! For all you
have wiped out, killed and twisted?”
The child spoke plainly and honestly,
“What you love, I hate. What you want to
sustain, I want to destroy. All the pain
and suffering you imagine I have
caused…was actually a result of YOUR
selfish and perverse delight in the
physical world, Zog. Our Brothers and
Sisters were right…and you, sir, were
wrong. YOU caused me to walk into the
Chancellery the first day and plant my
seed. It was YOU!! You brought
the horrors of Hensi to the Pinwheel
Galaxy. I am your…hand, my
Brother, your reflection. As you Ascend
them up to Nirvana, I will cause such
PAIN to unsuspecting, innocent
Centers…and pull them down to Hensi…for
eternities.”
“No.”
Sequel Synopsis from author:‘The Continuum’ connects many parallel worlds and is not unlike virtual reality in ‘The Matrix’ or a dream. Epic story ends with Tray (meaning Everyman and author’s pen-name) no longer touched by the Zog-energy and only a married man. Here was the perfect jump-point of a sequel for Tray and Mary’s SON with title on the order of ‘Son of Frankenstein’ or ‘Son of Kong.’ Since the world renewed and reshaped itself with the next (5th) Continuum into one of pure peace, what will Son of Tray be like?
‘Son of Zog’ is a straight-forward story (basic character-arc) of the Son: the Son of a ‘superman’ or of something even higher? I knew to kill myself off as soon as I could with the first chapter called: ‘The Death of Tray Caladan.’ One more time, a universe recycled for 2100 yarns, but first 1900 was a paradise. No Devil or atomics infected the 5th (Dream) Construct. Why did a universal utopia swing toward chaos and killing in its last moments? It was because the Cosmic Pendulum HAD to swing the other way…for balance. Sam Caladan, the son, turned to violence and joined Fight Clubs. This ‘punk’ act led to a mad military. A REVELATION that concerned his father’s actual killer set him on the path to recovery, redemption and his true Destiny:
Sam will save a universe as his entire family had done in other times. Once more, our familiar 20th Century reappears only we view a twisted version of World Wars 1, 2 and 3! Parodies of a Tesla-character (Alokin) and Einstein (Jene Renoux) are precious; fighting over gravity. The parallel of my ‘Pittsburgh Experiment’ instead of the ‘Philadelphia Experiment’ might not sound so far-fetched if you asked writer Brad Steiger or could ask the late Al Beliek. Maybe we went into the future long ago, thanks to Alokin…I mean Tesla? We view Mars/Earth history in #2 as Sam touches Crystal Archives, but in Book #3: Readers get to experience Mars/Earth histories.
Book #2, ‘Son of Zog,’ has the most drama and, by far, the most Comedy. Scenes with 'Stall,' the dark wizard (with shat-slashes) and Nya Nodras (Ayn Rand as a version of the Devil) are (in my opinion) the funniest material. #2 was a joy to write and my personal favorite. Now, what card game could it come down to at the 21st Hour? In Book #1, Cal must lose the card game; in ‘Son…’ Cal or Tray or Sam must win!
Book #3 is called ‘The Cydonian War’ and was the hardest thing for any writer to imagine, picture, describe and relay to others. To a Writing Class: “Okay class, write a novel from the beginning of the Universe from the beginning of Time and have it hold up scientifically.” Book 1 and Book 2 are Dreams or ‘Constructs,’ but not Book 3…it goes back to the beginning of the REAL world. Readers discover what ‘White Space’ is. Readers discover their own Martian History or ‘New Genesis’ from Shasheer, the 4th Planet; how it corrupted and how evil and the darkness were first invented on Mars and how Asteroids were formed. (Like the Superman story) Mars is ruined. The parents secure a Life-Pod with Son to safely travel to 3rd Planet, Tera. The Cydonian disaster in time and all evil (and only evil in universe) was created because of a mathematical mistake by El, the boy’s father back on Mars. The Son clones himself and bio-manufactures our human civilization on Earth via the World Grid of Electrical Power. He discovers that he must destroy two Earthly empires he built (Atlantis and Egypt) in order to save the future, save his ‘sky-walking’ family; remove the Cosmic Curse, correct his Father's error, restore Light and Love to the Universe and make everything right again in time. - TS Caladan
Tray or Doug also presents his film script: 'God' (the movie) 'History is Backwards.' In the same writing-style of ancient history told in Story-form ('Fantasy-Faction') learn a different view of the Old Testament where Science and Technology could explain many of the miracles!
