RAD and the Quest for Geminus is a delightful morality tale for all ages - not at all preachy but fun and rollicking! The author's writing is flawless....it flows seemingly effortlessly. Mr. Kohanyi is also a keen social critic and unlike others he leaves us with a vision for this planet that is healing, wholesome and restorative! If I had kids, this book would be required reading, and it definitely will be on this year's Christmas list!
A magical story for kids and adults alike!

"RAD and the quest for Geminus" is a real page-turner - an adventure story that you can see as you read it. It has multi-cultural and multi-social aspects (poor/wealthy/orphaned/kids without Dads) and teaches - not preaches - good moral values of sharing, trust and love. I am a teacher in a school where RAD is already being taught in our classes. What really impressed me before I even read it is that has the endorsement of Book Television and that a portion of each book goes to the children's charity Variety Village. What is it about? Radison Allison Davies is a celestial Messenger. Transformed into a 12-year old orphan boy ("RAD"), he is on a Mission to seek his earthly half-brother and deliver him an important message. Arriving on Earth, he's unable to find him, for the place is now under siege by the forces of Evil. However, the clever Messenger with the golden vest is not done yet, he enlists the help of two jovial Friars and a mysterious Diva, and embarks on a journey across the Continent full of challenges and fun... Will RAD bring closure to his quest for Geminus? Will Evil be pushed back? ...in this inventive and darkly humorous tale of love and renewal. I join Variety Village Honoree George Gross in saying that "RAD" is: "Uplifting and enlightening - an adventure that will be enjoyed by kids and adults alike!"
