Six Books by Bryan Neville

Science fiction, political suspense, spiritual reflection, practical encouragement, and a concise guide for baseball and softball players and coaches.

Steadiness for life’s difficult seasons

These books can be read separately, but they belong together. Finding Peace considers the spiritual search for a settled heart. When Your Life Changes offers a practical and compassionate map for moving through loss, disruption, and a future that suddenly looks different.

Finding Stability, Hope, and Growth

When Your Life Changes

A job ends. A diagnosis arrives. A relationship changes. Someone we love is gone. This book helps you understand where you are, regain your footing, and take the next wise step.

The capital G at the heart of the book traces a curved path from disorientation toward adaptation, renewal, and greater stability. It is a map, not a timetable.

Baseball & Softball

A Primer for Players and Coaches

Baseball and softball become easier to understand when every player knows what to do before the ball is hit, what to do when the ball is hit to you, and what to do when it goes to someone else.

This concise primer introduces position responsibilities, game situations, base running, communication, practice, and game-day decision-making. It gives new players and coaches a practical running start without becoming a lengthy textbook or comprehensive rulebook.

Cover of Operation Graupel by Bryan Neville

Political–military thriller · Revised second edition

Operation Graupel

For eleven seconds, an unidentified object vanishes from the sensors aboard an American destroyer—then reappears on a course no one can explain.

Executive Officer Beth McDonald refuses to accept equipment failure as the answer. Her insistence carries her observations to Washington, where a wounded new president confronts grief, political uncertainty, and responsibilities he never expected to inherit. Inside North Korea, ambitious officers conceal a capability even their own government may not fully understand.

When eleven missing seconds can change the course of nations, who has the courage to say, “We still don’t know”?
