While the search for life beyond Earth often looks to the stars, author Kristy Shanahan suggests we might be looking in the wrong direction—or at least, only in one direction. Her latest non-fiction work, Glimpses into Other Worlds, moves past the typical tropes of space exploration to examine the intersection of ancient history, quantum physics, and human consciousness. Explora Books will feature this title from March 10–12, 2026, at the London Book Fair, located at the Olympia London in Hammersmith.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th Mar 2026 – The book functions as a bridge between the physical and the theoretical. Shanahan begins by revisiting historical accounts that many have long dismissed as mere myth. She looks at the biblical descriptions of Enoch and Elijah alongside the technical interpretations of engineers like Josef F. Blumrich, who famously analyzed the visions of Ezekiel through the lens of spacecraft design. By placing these ancient “heavenly visitors” next to modern UAP reports and the 1947 Roswell incident, the text asks whether humanity has been documenting the same phenomena for millennia under different names.

However, the narrative takes its most interesting turn when it leaves the vacuum of space for the complexities of the laboratory. Shanahan examines String Theory and quantum mechanics, not as dry academic subjects, but as the mathematical foundation for “Ultraterrestrials”—entities that may not travel from distant planets, but from dimensions existing parallel to our own. This section ditches the “little green men” cliches to focus on the scientific possibility of wormholes and folded space-time.

The final portion of the book focuses inward. Shanahan explores the Orch-OR model of consciousness, a theory suggesting that the human mind isn’t just a product of biological chemistry, but is connected to the universe via quantum entanglement. This connects modern science back to the Hindu concepts of Atman and Brahman, suggesting that the “other worlds” we seek might be accessed through the mind as much as through a telescope.

Glimpses into Other Worlds is less about providing a definitive map of the universe and more about asking why the same patterns appear in NASA reports, Vedic texts, and Cold War-era remote viewing programs. It is a precise, research-heavy look at the data points that suggest our reality is far more crowded than it appears.

Attendees of the London Book Fair can find Glimpses into Other Worlds at the Explora Books display.

Glimpses into Other Worlds is available on Amazon and other major retailers.

As the UK marks its National Year of Reading, Vancouver-based marketing and publishing firm Explora Books will bring a curated catalogue of independent titles to the London Book Fair 2026, taking place March 10–12 at Olympia London. Exhibiting at Stand 6F108, the firm will present 57 books from its authors, offering visitors a snapshot of how independently published works are reaching readers across international markets.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th Mar 2026 – The London Book Fair remains a central meeting point for the industry, drawing publishers, agents, and literary professionals from around the world. For many independent authors, appearing in this setting represents a step beyond online listings and into direct conversation with the people who help books travel further. Explora Books’ presence at the fair is designed to show that independent does not mean invisible.

The UK’s National Year of Reading places a welcome spotlight on the value of books and literacy. Explora Books notes that while the initiative encourages people to read, the health of any reading culture also depends on the continued creation of new stories. By helping independent authors handle distribution, promotion, and market visibility, the firm sees its work as part of that broader cycle—supporting the act of writing as well as the act of reading.

While self-publishing has made releasing a book easier than ever, standing out among thousands of new releases remains difficult. Explora Books focuses on the practical steps that follow publication, working with authors on global distribution, digital placement, and sustained promotional efforts that help their titles reach new audiences.

The 57 books featured at the stand reflect the diversity of today’s independent publishing sector. The selection spans memoir, fiction, personal narratives, and speculative works—stories shaped by different experiences but united by their authors’ decision to pursue publication outside traditional routes.

“Publishing a book is only the beginning,” the Explora Books team notes. “The real challenge is making sure it reaches readers who might connect with it. Events like the London Book Fair create space for those introductions.”

Visitors to Stand 6F108 will also have the chance to meet several of the writers behind these titles during scheduled signing sessions held throughout the three-day fair.

Featured Events at Stand 6F108
A total of 10 author signing sessions will take place during the event. The following authors are among those scheduled to appear:

Tuesday, March 10 (Day 1)
Afternoon: Kiana Webb and Ramona Hammel

Wednesday, March 11 (Day 2)
Morning: Mike Self and Kay Marie Perrin
Afternoon: Curtis Lindt and William Sandberg (Virtual Session)

Thursday, March 12 (Day 3)
Morning: Claudette McLennon and David Tuttle
Afternoon: Dr. Ulysses Labilles and Patricia Blake

Publishers, agents, and authors attending the London Book Fair are invited to visit Stand 6F108 to explore the featured titles and meet the writers presenting their work. With 2026 dedicated to celebrating reading across the UK, the showcase highlights another essential part of the literary environment—the people who continue to write the stories readers are looking for.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 7th Mar 2026 – Explora Books will showcase two distinctive titles by Patricia L. Blake—distinct in genre but united by their moral gravity—as part of its exhibition at the London Book Fair, taking place March 10–12, 2026, at Olympia London in Hammersmith. Mocha: Angel Warrior Book 1 – True Trust and Touched by the Hand of God: In the City of Angels SEND ME! sit far apart in form and audience, they headline a collection grounded in the same essential question: how trust, faith, and duty shape a life when circumstances are unforgiving.

Mocha: Angel Warrior Book 1 – True Trust tells its story through an unusual but steady voice—that of Mocha, an animal narrating their own early life. The book opens with birth and maternal protection, rendered in plain language that keeps close to physical detail: unsteady legs, patient nudges, a body placed instinctively between danger and child. This grounding makes the later separation from Mocha’s mother feel quiet but heavy, not dramatized, just stated and lived with.

When Mocha is introduced to ranch work—saddles, bits, and expectations they do not understand—the book resists turning the experience into conflict for its own sake. Mocha’s refusal to chase cows is not framed as rebellion but as discomfort with causing fear. The turning point arrives not through training or correction, but recognition. A girl named Pepper sees Mocha across a fence, waits, and allows the animal to choose. Their bond forms without negotiation. When a rancher dismisses Mocha as a failure, Pepper’s response is tactile and immediate: touch, presence, acceptance. The book’s language remains restrained, allowing the idea of “true trust” to emerge through action rather than explanation.

Patricia L. Blake’s Touched by the Hand of God: In the City of Angels SEND ME! moves in the opposite direction stylistically, yet lands in a similar emotional territory. This memoir draws from Blake’s thirty-three-year career with the Los Angeles Police Department, beginning with a defining spiritual experience following the death of her first husband. The event becomes the lens through which the rest of her life is understood—not sentimentally, but as a calling she believes was clearly set before her.

Blake’s account of police work avoids abstraction. She names places, injuries, decisions made in seconds, and the lasting weight of scenes that do not resolve cleanly. From gang-heavy patrols in Rampart to moments of solitary danger and leadership under scrutiny, the book documents both external threats and internal resistance within the department. Her voice is firm and personal, shaped by faith but anchored in lived detail.

A quiet thread connects the two books: Mocha appears again, this time as Mocha Latte, Blake’s mounted unit partner and “angel warrior horse.” The bond described in the first book becomes lived experience in the second, bridging story and memoir without forcing symbolism.

Together, these titles reflect Explora Books’ interest in narratives that treat faith, service, and connection as lived responsibilities rather than ideas. Visitors to the London Book Fair will find these works on display as examples of storytelling that stays close to experience, speaks plainly, and trusts the reader to draw meaning from what is shown rather than declared.

Mocha: Angel Warrior Book 1 – True Trust and Touched by the Hand of God: In the City of Angels SEND ME! are available on Amazon and other major retailers. Discover more about Blake and her work at warriorsandheroes.com.
