In 1990, Justice Hawk accepted a position
as a Nuclear Engineering Department instructor in Nuclear Reactor Theory at the Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard. From 1990 to
1995, Justice Hawk, in cooperation with his workmates, instituted a new training program that enable engineering graduates
from University of Hawaii at Manoa to qualify as Nuclear Shift Test Engineers in two years. Prior to this new training program,
engineering candidates at the Shipyard would flounder about for years and never qualify, despite being sent, at Government
expense, to Mainland schools in order to learn the rudiments of Nuclear Power Plants. After some three years of developing
the new training program, all candidates were completely trained, successfully, in house. Currently, Mainland Shipyards send
their engineering candidates to Pearl Harbor for training. To say the least, the new training program was highly successful.
During his development of the new training
program, Justice Hawk completed a semi-accredited doctorate in International Business Administration (1993). His dissertation
was "Technical Training as a Comparative Advantage to Multinational Enterprises." Clearly, his dissertation research
provided integral inputs to the new training program in the Nuclear Engineering Department at Pearl Harbor.
In 1996, the Independent State
of Papua New Guinea commissioned Justice Hawk as an Honorary Consul General and Trade Representative. He oversaw huge projects
in fishing, timber, gold and construction in the Pacific Theater. As Trade Representative under Deputy Prime Minister Michael
Nali, Justice Hawk was elevated to Deputy Trade Minister.” Justice Hawk is the author of Small
Prices; Dark Waters; Three Novels in the Emergence Series; The Price For Gold; Silent; and, Sialon.
According to the book description of
Small Prices, “This novel penetrates deeply into the underworld of Hawai'i. With amazing detail,
armed robbery, burglary, corruption, drug trafficking, gambling, murder, murder for hire, political interference, prostitution,
racism, and white slave trade form the background while the opportunistic characters attempt to navigate through a transitional
period of laissez faire social attitudes to one of increasing restraint. Tropical exuberance slowly acquiesces to the pressures
of modernity. Political interference dissipates justice. Crime pays in Chinatown. Trust dissolves into distrust. Welcome to
Paradise!”
One reader said of Small
Prices, “This book makes you definitely think twice about going on vacation. And how Hawaii can be so
cosmetic in appearance. While I was reading this novel it gave me chills to think that "Easy Eddie" exists. You
would never think that a place like Hawaii would have organized crime like that. Just another fabulous book by the man himself,
Justice Hawk.”
One reader said of Small
Prices, “this book is awesome. There is massive corruption in both government and private sector in Hawaii
and this book brings it to the forefront where any reader - even elementary level - can understand it and in total shock.
Some of the scenes are a little graphic with sexual overtones. If you have been the victim of corruption, this book is for
you.”
One reader said of Small
Prices, “people will go to jail over this novel. There is no statute of limitations on contract murder.
The drug trafficking operation is too detailed to be fiction. I felt I was the plaintiff in the lawyer's office discussing
the intricacies of the huge real estate scam. The detail in this novel is awesome! This book dissects Honolulu's criminal
elements.”
According to the description of the
Emergence series, it “proposes a scenario which confronts head-on the premise provided by
Plato’s tripartite soul with reason governing spirit (emotions) and the appetite. As the trilogy unfolds, the scenario
compels us to rethink not so much whether or not Plato was right, but why other options have been discounted or suppressed.
It cannot be understated that Plato’s
tripartite soul acts as the supporting pillar to the entire entablature of Western Civilization. If Plato’s premise
proves faulty, then the last 2500 years of debate dissipates into dust. Succinctly, our perception of reality is entirely
incorrect.
By the time that the reader concludes
Emergence 3, the other options should induce the measure of our fruitlessness over the last two millennia. Though Postmodernists
have hinted to a failure of reason, the Emergence series should add the final punctuation mark. Our part in the Universe is
quite different from what we have enticed and intoxicated ourselves into believing.”
One reader of Emergence
said, “is a thriller and a page turner with a very different twist. It is thought provoking and provides the reader
with ideas that could lead to very different conclusions about the theories it stimulates throughout the narrative. It definitely
went down some "roads less traveled" based on my own real life experiences. If you want to read a book that will
energize your thought processes, then pick this story up and start reading. It will be very difficult for you to put it back
on the shelf once you start it. Fast paced and definitely worth the read. I would recommend it to anyone who likes to broaden
their perspectives on our planet and how it started and where it is going in the future.”
One reader of Emergence
2 said, “The mysterious entity of the initial Emergence novel reappears in the deep hydrothermal vent
areas of the Pacific Ocean. Rather than merely explore the reality of the surface world, the entity chooses to adventure into
our reality. Research in origins of life, geology and Super String Theory merge to produce an intense tale of scientific inquiry
that questions our most sacred assumptions and beliefs.
Justice Hawk has hit another home run
with Emergence 2. he makes every reader think of the many possibilities of this complex world, some are facts as we know of
them and others we just think of them as fiction. Justice Hawk takes the fiction part and makes you realize that it just might
be the real facts. This is a must read for anyone that has read Emergence.”
One reader of Emergence
2 said, A great read, especially if you have read Emergence. It takes the next step in a process that suggests
that perhaps we have some different life forms on earth watching and waiting to take some not so friendly action on the human
race and planet earth. Very exciting and very plausible ideas about this theory are set forth in this book. I found myself
pondering all sorts of possibilities as I read the book. I have read Emergence and this was a great second book based on that
first publication. I found the story line to be very exciting and full of suspenseful scenarios. I would recommend this book
to one and all. I could not put it down once I got into it.”
One reader of Emergence

According to the book description of Sialon,
“This is a 21st century story of hard choices, told from the perspective of the Indonesian Army in the Province of Irian
Jaya, Republic of Indonesia. Diplomacy, foreign direct investment and transmigration pit the Muslim culture of Javanese Imperialism
against the Christian, Stone Age culture of the indigenous population. No two cultures could be further apart. The credits
and debits of the prior centuries unfold here. This is a story of genocide.”
One reader of Sialon
said, “Indonesia's new President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono takes the oath of office while an official holds the Koran
book during the inauguration ceremony at Parliament, in Jakarta yesterday. Former army general Yudhoyono took the oath to
be sworn in as Indonesia's sixth president, replacing Megawati Sukarnoputri whom he defeated in the country's first direct
election. Yudhoyono was the Security Minister portrayed in the novel. The world should brace for rough times ahead ... including
our troops in Iraq!”
