PARALLEL PROMISES takes the Team to Caledronium, a distant planet, to answer an SOS, turning defeat and desperation into hope. Promises made become promises kept as Team members respond to multiple crises in alien worlds and around the globe called Earth. Their return to Earth takes them to a mining disaster in Wyoming and gives them a day to visit a famous town on Margo's bucket list. Sicily, Cameroon, Korea, and Antarctica are among the countries to which Parallel scientists send various Team members for interventions. The funeral of an elderly neighbor with promises of eternity precedes wedding promises in Germany. A communication crisis threatens to jeopardize and derail Team Missions, bringing two old friends together. A fantastic rescue deep within a glacier on a reactivating volcano becomes another promise kept.

Larry L. Sydow is a retired Lutheran pastor. He previously published "Let Them Answer," a book of children's sermons. "Parallel Missions-the Journey Begins" is the first in the PARALLEL MISSIONS series, which includes "Parallel Challenges," "Parallel in Jeopardy," and "Parallel Promises." Shortly after retirement, he began writing the first of the series. After failing retirement the first time (of four tries) and moving to Roswell, New Mexico, he continued the science fantasy series.
While his passion is ministry, his relaxation is found in writing. He grew up as a Nebraska farm boy, earned a B.A. and an M. Div., and served more than 40 years as a parish pastor.
In addition to his responsibilities as an intentional interim pastor, Larry enjoys music. He sings, plays piano, organ, and guitar. He is also a Master Gardener, specializing in medicinal herbs and herb-lore.
He and his wife, Susan, celebrated their 50th anniversary in 2018. They have two sons and three grandchildren living in the Seattle area.
