An Ancient Secret - A Deep Mystery - A Parallel Dimension - And One Guy—looking for his sock. Nobody expected Steven Ph. Bearlyman to amount to anything. He had no talent, no job, and no prospects. But he had a sock. An old sock. And a very special sock this turned out to be, coveted by a pandimensional race of people—once the rulers of Earth, but now departed. We’re talking about the Romans, here. Julius Caesar and his peeps. Beside a bunch of buildings, the Romans left behind an obscure artifact that has the power to unlock the mystery of life, and grant universal dominance to its possessor: An old sock, now owned by Steven Ph. Bearlyman. The Romans had it, they lost it, and now they want it back. Crawling into a dryer to look for his missing sock, Steven accidentally discovers a gateway to a parallel dimension, and is immediately thrust into the middle of a multidimensional plot that has been thousands of years in the making. Now the fate of the world—all the worlds—rests in the hands of this lanky loner from Los Angeles. Only he can save us. But first, he must find his missing sock. The Sock, or Steven Ph. Bearlyman's Adventures in Parallel Dimensions is an epic saga, spanning several books, about the world’s greatest mystery: Why do only socks disappear from dryers? Why not boxers, bras, or bib overalls? If you like action, mystery, and just plain laughing out loud, you’ll love this hilarious series that will forever change the way you look at your wardrobe. Discover the secret behind the history and the mystery of life by securing a copy of Book One of The Sock today. The Adventure Starts Here.
