Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In December 1980, Donald Steele departed from Anabel Island, leaving behind his pregnant wife and a deferred legacy. A single planted seed was the only sign he had been there at all. In September 1981, he returned for the birth of his twin sons, Luke and Anthony. The seed he had planted had now grown, branching in two directions. In September 1986, he departed again, this time leaving far more than one seed planted in the ground. In the interceding years, Anabel Island experienced a power struggle borne of a change in family dynamics. It existed under the shadow of a mysterious man, Donald's proxy and collaborator. And through it all, Luke and Anthony came of age in an idyll all their own. Above the Fruited Plain is the first volume of a four-part series that tracks the lives of Luke and Anthony Steele from conception to age 18. This novel contains the prologue and first two books of the saga.
