It’s that time again Nightowls, when the veil between our world and what lies beyond is supposedly at its thinnest. But what of those for whom that membrane between life as we know it and whatever may lay outside of it, at anytime, may wane complete- allowing for a pure gaze into the abyss? Neurosurgeon and unlikely war hero Ryan Brenan, protagonist of Dr. Gary Simonds latest novel ‘Death’s Pale Flag’, is a man haunted by just such a view. When he begins to have experiences with the dead, Ryan’s life is upended, and he begins to question if he is loosing his mind, or if the dearly departed, who are seemingly reaching out to him, have chosen him for a reason. Tonight on MIK, we sit down for an in-depth conversation with Dr. Simonds on his latest work and just what inspired this tale of a man beset by paranormal apparitions. In this episode we talk hopeful agnosticism, the border line between science and the supernatural, what it means to peer through the veil of life and death, and so much more! Join us under the moonlight and by the fireside this evening, Nightowls, as we capture Death’s Pale Flag and go in conversation with Dr. Gary Simonds!
