ABOUT BOOK TWO: THE BLOOD ROSE OF PANADORWhat if the one who would be the greatest aid to you was someone you didn't even know?&nbsp;A battle won, but a war that only continues. Yet, the quiet that follows the monumental battle of The Miracle of Mirador, is but a ruse. The Dark is still working, as it always will, in shadows, in secret, even in isolation, to bring to pass its bloody purpose -- annihilation of the Light. Daniel, The Miracle of Mirador, is again instrumental in the plan to defeat the Dark, but he is also their principal target. As he grows and learns and comes into his powers, those that aid him will soon prosper. Those who oppose him will not. Adventure and intrigue continue to build as Daniel -- this boy prophet, their protector, their guardian -- leads his people in sometimes fearsome might and with uncanny perception as he battles the powers of Darkness that threaten to engulf them all.ABOUT THE SERIES: DANIEL LIGHT AND THE CHILDREN OF THE ORBA long time ago on a planet far away there lived The Race of Enchanters, beings of Light. As is ever the situation when Light is present, so, also, is Darkness. These Sorcerors, close kin to the Enchanters, seek to influence and destroy all that had been protected and created by the Light. Other magical beings and creatures inhabit these realms and are torn and divided by this constant battle between Light and Dark; events and prophecies are ignored by the Light, The Dark, and the neutral; allegiances change and shift; power over all being the end result, for some. Then comes word of The Prophecy of Light: a being to come in the median of time to lead the Forces of Light to victory. Thus the stage is set for Daniel Light and the Children of the Orb. STORY NOTES: The story of Snow White and Rose Red (Brothers Grimm) loosely provides a basic framework on which to hang this re-imagined tale about The Children Of The Orb, which also alludes to the origin of the stories we know and love on Planet Earth as having possibly come from beyond our own Earthly experience.

WEMBLEY TEWKES ON THE EDGES OF TIME: IMPERFECTIONS ON THE EDGE Book One Did you ever have a recurring dream only to wake up one day and find it was NOT a dream?&nbsp;Wembley Tewkes was born 14. At least to those around him, In Yarmouth, Maine, it had always seemed like he could do everything he did now. He raised lambs that won the 4H every year. He was good in all his schoolwork, especially history. He was an Eagle Scout, volunteered at the library one day each week after school, was a championship swimmer, and a crackerjack tennis player. Wembley could do anything he set his mind to...... except talk to girls. He had known Brindi Williams since they were little. They grew up playing together, and then came - awkwardness. It just happened; he began acting strange around her. Wembley, strange? Well, he thought so. His friendship seemed to want to demand more from her, and it flummoxed him.Then there were these wild and crazy dreams he was having: travels through time and space that changed and shifted rapidly. They had started up within the last year. That's when he met, well, we will call her, Evie.He was really uncomfortable around her. She knew things about him no stranger should, and then there was that... Magic stuff.Now that I've told you all about him, you probably won't want to read the book, "Imperfections On the Edge," book 1 of the "Wembley Tewkes On The Edges Of Time" series.But come to think of it, there's a lot you don't know about Wembley Tewkes; lots of things that Wembley doesn't even know about himself.From LEICESTER BAY BOOKSABOUT THE SERIES:Isn't adolescence difficult enough to navigate through without being taken to other realities at the drop of a thought...or on someone else's whim?&nbsp;&nbsp;The three books in the series are about that time of uncomfortability: Adolescence. How can anyone really be comfortable during adolescence? That time of feeling awkward and out of place comes to all of us. What are the most embarrassing, unnerving and difficult things for a teen to face? Everything that Wembley faces! Wembley Tewkes is abnormal in his relatively comfortable life as a confident adolescent, but his world is about to be shaken back down to normal. All of the 'normal' things that happen during this time to make anyone uncomfortable will be exaggerated and compounded by the freaky, eerie, unsettling and just plain weird experiences that Wembley will go through. Every effort will be made, by whatever unseen or ancient powers, to take Wembley out of his norm -- his comfort zone -- in fantastic ways. Magic, time-travel, runes and scrolls, prophecies and predictions, swords, sorcery, love and deception will haunt the life of Wembley Tewkes as he is exposed to his hidden destiny, and is compelled to enter into it and live it to the best of his abilities. He has an unrevealed mission to fulfill; a destiny to align himself with in order to become the greatest individual he can become. He will leave everything that is loved by him and comfortable to him behind him as he lives this new life.

Watchers, fallen angels, demons, giants, raiders, armies and Father Cain -what can a boy of little promise do?Enoch in the City of Adam chronicles the early years of young Enoch. As a mere "lad" Enoch is not the most obvious choice to lead his people, being smaller and weaker than most of the young men of his village and having a speech impediment that makes him appear weak to many. Nonetheless, Father Adam recognizes in him one who will rise to the call to help his people when perilous times threaten on the horizon.Technological implementations and diabolical deceit were destroying the people, their civilization, and the very planet, and Enoch sought feverishly to gather out those who would listen to his message before the end came crashing down on them in planetary upheaval.Darkness hangs an ominous cloud over the land and young Enoch seems destined to take the weight of the troubled world on his narrow shoulders. The boy comes face to face with the reality of evil and employs every mental and spiritual power at his disposal to combat it.This is not your typical Sunday School or Bible Study treatment of the subject matter, but a comprehensive course that includes accounts and histories from several ancient texts, the most reliable of which have contributed to the telling of these antediluvian adventures. The world before the Flood was a cruel, dangerous and sophisticated place to exist. Satan, with his demons, fallen angels and fallen Watchers, meted out knowledge of sin, technology and weaponry with the purpose in mind of destroying God's children and their planetary home. Sophisticated weaponry and technologies are a constant subject of the ancient texts, and author J.L. Thompson incorporates that unwieldy knowledge into the Historical Fiction of A Coming Flood novel series to demonstrate the global path of destruction pursued for over 1,000 years by those who knew God, but rejected Him and his chosen emissaries.Sobering, challenging and inventive . . .
