What if the greatest kingdom you will ever discover is the one within your own heart?
Outwardly, he has everything the world tells him should bring happiness: success, respect, knowledge, and achievement. Yet beneath the surface, an unshakable emptiness remains.
When a mysterious gate appears before him, he steps into a Kingdom unlike any other-a living world where forests, rivers, mountains, gardens, deserts, and forgotten roads reveal not the landscape around him, but the hidden landscape within.
Guided by wise companions and tested by every step of the journey, he must confront reason, memory, imagination, desire, anger, grief, solitude, gratitude, knowledge, pride, and forgetfulness before finally reaching the centre of the Kingdom, where the greatest discovery awaits.
Part allegorical novel, part spiritual pilgrimage, The Kingdom Within is a contemplative journey into the depths of the human soul, exploring timeless questions about identity, freedom, wisdom, humility, and the search for lasting peace.
For readers who love thoughtful, beautifully written fiction in the tradition of The Pilgrim's Progress, The Great Divorce, and The Alchemist, this is a story that lingers long after the final page has been turned, inviting each reader to ask a simple but life-changing question:
What kingdom am I truly governing?
Robert Scott
Robert Scott discovered that true-crime writing is incredibly interesting, as "You have to be part journalist, part detective and part analytical writer for the true crime market." Robert's books have detailed the lives of killers and victims, police detectives and FBI agents—from California to Iowa, from the Canadian border to the Mexican border. They've depicted stories from a murderous male/female team in the High Sierras to a psychopathic killer on the mean streets of Los Angeles. They've also told the stories of victims, from an exotic dancer, to a beautiful but naive college girl, to a loving and vulnerable ranch wife. "The lives of the victims, and the detectives who brought them justice, are vitally important in these stories," Robert said. "I absolutely believe in a comment related to me by an Assistant United States Attorney, 'To the living we owe respect, to the dead we owe the truth.'" Robert is currently working on true crime books set in Oregon and Northern California. Robert has been on many television shows on Discovery ID, A&E, E!, and Tru TV.
