This exciting and spiritual medieval quest adventure follows the story of young Prince Brandun. He and two companions are forced out on a search for the mysterious Temple of Wisdom, to find a scepter that will determine the next heir to the kingdom of Haefen. The young characters encounter grief, danger, love, freindship, mystery, and discovery, and in the intriguing realm of the Jahaziel Mountains learn new ways to relate to God and the world around them, on both natural and spiritual levels. Though technically a young-adult novel (for ages 12 and up), The Temple of Wisdom makes a wonderful read or read-aloud for young and old alike. 
"Thank you," wrote one reader, "for your book, The Temple of Wisdom. I found it a wonderful blend of Swedenborg's "True Christian Religion," Tolkien's "Lord of the Rings," and Ende's "Neverending Story."

This year, however, it does not feel like enough for Keira to simply watch the dragon fly overhead. She longs to be closer, and one day climbs up Dragon Hill-only to witness a sight that horrifies her. Keira resolves to take action, to make sure that Mother Dragon will not repeat the terrible deed that Keira saw her do. And yet, as she carries out her decisions, problems arise that Keira never anticipated. Were her decisions the right ones? Or did they make things worse than before?

This book describes, in biblical text and beautiful full-color paintings, a vision seen by the apostle John while on the island of Patmos. John sees a heavenly throne room with God on the throne. Four creatures covered with eyes and wings, an emerald rainbow, a glassy sea, and twenty-four crowned elders are some of the amazing images surrounding the throne. After the story, an inner meaning is offered in simple terms, based on the works of Emanuel Swedenborg, an 18th-century Christian writer. The scene of the Throne Room of Heaven is viewed as a visual description of God's loving presence inside each person.
