Book Description
Thirteen-year-old Daniel just got adopted. But when he learns his new family wants him as a slave, he runs away with the help of his neighbors: the naive and cowardly Ben, and Raylin, a street-smart girl with impressive martial arts skills. He begins to second-guess his decision, however, when the cave they hide in transports them to the ruins of Machu Picchu, where the companions find themselves embroiled in a battle between ancient gods of life and death. To top things off, the God of Life draws Daniel into the fray by adopting him as his son and setting him on a quest to complete a broken, mystical sword—a task that pits him against the god of the underworld and his nightmarish minions. Now, Daniel and his friends have just one weekend to find the shards before a horde of supernatural enemies catches up. But that's not all they face. The god of death has a surprising connection to Daniel's past and knows where he's most vulnerable. WILL THE POWER OF HIS HEAVENLY FATHER BE ENOUGH TO SAVE THEM FROM THE ENEMY'S TRAPS? Daniel and the Sun Sword is a young adult, Christian fantasy novel exploring faith, redemption, and adoption as sons and daughters of God. It is the first book in the Sons and Daughters series, which includes Daniel and the Triune Quest, Daniel and the Serpents Abyss, and Daniel and the Trees of Eden.

Book Description
Barely two months after rescuing Raylin in the Abyss, the final quest begins. The mission? Seal the Spirit of the Age into the Serpent to usher in an era of spiritual awakening. But this will require a battle in the heart of Babylon where the Enemy’s power is greatest. To prepare, Daniel and his friends must first navigate a treacherous path through Babylon itself to find the Gates of Eden—and beyond, the Tree of Purity. The road is plagued with scores of monstrous demons, and Eden isn't without challenges of its own. A trial awaits within the fabled garden, one that will either purify a growing darkness within the group … or prove its downfall. Should they triumph, further tribulation looms on the horizon. The Enemy is ready for battle, and in his possession is the Vessels’ greatest weakness. Amid each travail, Daniel clings desperately to the Three’s assurance of hope. WILL THEIR PROMISES SUSTAIN HIM WHEN FACED WITH IMMEASURABLE LOSS? Daniel and the Trees of Eden is a young adult, Christian fantasy novel focusing on sanctification, reconciliation, and faith amid tribulation.

Book Description
Six months after returning from their adventures in Daniel and the Triune Quest, Daniel, Ben, and Seren eagerly await their mission to save Raylin and acquire the last Weapon of Power: the Abyssal Staff. Daniel can’t believe his luck when Gabriela shows up and declares she will guide them to the British Isles, where Raylin has been haunting ancient ruins in her frenetic search for more spiritual power. When the group is transported to Ireland, however, everything goes wrong. Raylin, driven mad by the possessing power of the Voidblade, is as powerful as several demons put together and impervious to their attacks. Seren, desperate to save her sister, impulsively starts an explosive battle to bind her—a decision that turns the entire quest on its head and drives Daniel to a point of desperation he never anticipated. Through it all, the Three are noticeably absent and quiet, not answering prayers or sending aid. What’s worse, Gabriela seems distant and preoccupied. So much for Daniel’s hopes for improving their relationship. The quest seems hopeless, and it’s only just begun. How can the companions hope to evade the Enemy’s minions haunting their every step, subdue a super-powered Raylin in her madness, get her to the bottom of the Abyss where the staff resides, and survive a face-to-face encounter with the Serpent awaiting them there? Daniel has no idea, but he hopes his faith in the Three will not prove vain. Surely, after all their intervention during the last two quests, they wouldn’t abandon the companions without help. Right? Daniel and the Serpent’s Abyss is a young adult, Christian fantasy novel exploring forgiveness, faith, and the empowering role of the Holy Spirit in the believer’s life. It is the third in the Sons and Daughters series, which includes Daniel and the Sun Sword, and Daniel and the Triune Quest.

Book Description
The only problem you will have with this brilliant and inspiring novel by Terry Thompson will be laying it down. It is a spellbinding story with many great lessons of courageous leadership. Its contemporary resolution of the mysteries of the end-times will give you chills. Every few years, a particular Bible-based novel commands the attention of the Christian world. This is it for this decade. Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas, national television personality, and New York Times Best-selling Author Daniel was just a teenager when he was taken captive by the Babylonians, never to see his family again. As Daniel and his friends strive to make the best of their unusual circumstances-slaves in the king's-court they also fight to honor their vows to the one true God amidst a people who worship only false gods. During his lifetime, Daniel saw the fulfillment of God's promises, prophesied of the Israelites future as well as ours, and led pagan kings to God. From slave to the highest position in the king's court, Daniel shows how God can use an ordinary person to do extraordinary things. Terry Thompson brings the book of Daniel to life with extensive research into the lives and customs of the Hebrew people, and he even opens up the discussion for the prophecies that have yet to be fulfilled. This book is a complement to an intensive study on Daniel and the God Who is still faithful to protect His people.

"Everything I look for in a fantasy." -- George R. R. Martin All paths lead to war. . . Marcus' hero days are behind him. He knows too well that even the smallest war still means somebody's death. When his men are impressed into a doomed army, staying out of a battle he wants no part of requires some unorthodox steps. Cithrin is an orphan, ward of a banking house. Her job is to smuggle a nation's wealth across a war zone, hiding the gold from both sides. She knows the secret life of commerce like a second language, but the strategies of trade will not defend her from swords. Geder, sole scion of a noble house, has more interest in philosophy than in swordplay. A poor excuse for a soldier, he is a pawn in these games. No one can predict what he will become. Falling pebbles can start a landslide. A spat between the Free Cities and the Severed Throne is spiraling out of control. A new player rises from the depths of history, fanning the flames that will sweep the entire region onto The Dragon's Path -- the path to war.
