FATE by Kathleen Osborne and More
FATE by Kathleen Osborne and more (‎261 pages – released February 6, 2025) is a story in the Literature & Fiction genre, settings being based on various sections.

I hold a profound admiration for anthologies created by a collective of distinguished authors, and this specific compilation, which includes nine gifted writers such as Kathleen Osborne, effectively showcases a diverse array of genres. The narratives traverse various settings, from the seemingly endless expanse of a hospital corridor to a WWII castle under siege, exploring themes such as the mystery of a missing individual, visions of alternate futures, the conflict between dignity and mortality, the intricacies of same-sex love amid the atrocities of war, the zeal of extraterrestrial entities, escaped prisoners arriving on shore, and the dilemmas confronted by a cancer survivor. This anthology encapsulates the concept of fate in its myriad forms. Each of the nine distinct stories echoes the theme of destiny, rendering it an ideal choice for leisurely reading sessions. Therefore, consider turning off the television, delving into the pages of FATE, and embracing the journey it presents.

The points are:

• Readability. This book is completely in line of the continuum of familiar readability, with the base layer of my reviewer’s pyramid, indicating a great foundation for great summaries to build up a compilation.
• Character Depth is complete.
• A book with great thrilling content.
• All the Points of Structure are Inclusive of:
  1. An author acknowledgement and biography.
  2. Supportive Contexts.
  3. Easy summarization
  4. Critical Analyses.
  5. Conclusions.
• Immersion.
• Integrity.

I recommend this book to all of my followers, friends and family. Once you start reading this book, you absolutely will not be able to put the book down! Happy reading!

Synopsis:

FATE. What is it?

‘Writers and readers are slaves to fate, chance, queens and kings, and desperate people, where poison, war, unjustness, and sickness dwell.’

Nine Transcendent Authors have taken this paraphrase of John Donne to heart and created nine distinct stories that touch on fate in all its manifestations.

A forever long hospital corridor, a WWII castle under siege, mystery of a missing male member, visions of an alternate future, dignity or death, gay love and a horrible war, the passion of aliens, escaped cons wash ashore, and a cancer survivor’s choices?

It’s all about FATE.

There are no dull or boring stories within these pages.

Bring a beer, a glass of wine, and something to munch on while you sit in your favorite chair. And delve into FATE. Recognize it and welcome it.

About the Main Author:

Kathleen Osborne‘s focus is on Sci-Fi Romance set in the present time and short stories of various genres.

She lives with her husband of 47 years, and they’re four-legged ‘girls’ – Sugar and Gigi – who run the house. Together they have two children – Angella and Joseph, who have five children between them; along with three great-grandchildren .

Kathleen lives at an elevation over 6000 feet in the White Mountains of northeastern Arizona. And it has imbibed her with a desire for new recipes geared for high altitude living. She laughingly says, her characters have re-kindled her interest in baking. To quote her, “When a character does something totally out of my plan, and as I am writing, if a solution does come to me… I bake. The need for a recipe means I only have to pay attention to directions, letting my mind regroup. Then when I sit down at my computer and re-read the predicament, a solution presents itself.”

In addition, she founded the group of writers called Transcendent Authors in 2020; together the ten authors have written five books and have another one in the wings, FATE. It will be out on November 2024.
