Exodus Rising by Bryan Davis

Description: Adrian Masters continues his relentless march toward the bitterly cold Northlands of Starlight. Ravaged by a deadly disease and accompanied by two children, Adrian carries Marcelle in a vegetative state, hoping Alaph, king of the Northlands, will supply
a way to reunite her near-death body with her wandering spirit.

Time is of the essence. Invading soldiers from Major Four are marching toward the Southlands village to do battle against the dragon slave masters, but two great dangers await—the inescapable disease and the unpredictable Benefile, ageless and mysterious white dragons who will kill any infected humans.

All the while, Drexel, the murderer of Marcelle’s mother, has taken on an impervious disguise as a male Starlighter and is using hypnotic powers to gain control of Mesolantrum with his sights set on the entire kingdom. Adrian and Marcelle must battle to free the slav es on one world and protect their own world from Drexel’s malevolent plan or else the freed slaves will return to Major Four only to find another slave master. Performing both tasks seems impossible.

Hope remains in the guise of the little Starlighter Regina. Guided by Cassabrie, Starlight’s great liberator, Regina hopes to accompany Adrian step by step to thwart the plans of slave masters on both worlds.

Omega Dragon by Bryan Davis

Description: In this final episode of Children of the Bard, Matt Bannister carries the corpse of his twin sister, Lauren, into Abaddon’s Lair, the wellspring of resurrection power. Along with Listener, he hopes to solve the mystery of this sacred chamber and restore Lauren’s life. When he reads from Abaddon’s secret resurrection book, disaster strikes, and he and Listener are forced to seek a different path where they are faced with another catastrophe—an ice storm laced with a villain’s potion that threatens to kill every inhabitant of Second Eden.

In the meantime, Marilyn Bannister seeks a way to enter Second Eden. She must restore the great dragon Clefspeare so that he can battle Arramos, the draconic manifestation of Satan. Arramos has been capturing and killing children as a way to bring God’s wrath upon the Earth, and only Clefspeare is powerful enough to stop him.

Transporting Clefspeare into Second Eden is possible, and only Sapphira Adi, the great Oracle of Fire, is able to open the secret portal to that world. While in the midst of apocalyptic destruction, Sapphira, Elam, Billy, Bonnie, Walter, and Ashley battle Arramos as he tries to thwart their plans and enter Second Eden himself. His goal? Complete annihilation of that world.

Heroes and heroines fight evil in order to save helpless innocents from Arramos as he kills, maims, and destroys. All seems lost against this unholy terror, and their only hope is the restoration of Clefspeare, the Omega Dragon.

From the Mouth of Elijah by Bryan Davis

Back Cover: In Song of the Ovulum, a fiery battle between dragons and the military helped Matt and Lauren set their father, Billy Bannister, free from a demonic captor. The demon, however, escaped and kidnapped their mother, Bonnie. During the battle, a portal vortex flung Matt into oblivion, and no one knew where he went.     Now, in From the Mouth of Elijah, Lauren and Billy set out on a journey to find Bonnie, hoping Lauren’s gifted hearing can track down Bonnie’s never-ending song. At the same time, Walter and Ashley search for clues to cure a mysterious disease that threatens to kill the original anthrozils, including Jared, who was once the great Clefspeare.

    Both journeys are fraught with peril as Lauren and Matt are thrust into Second Eden, where a volcano, Mount Elijah, has erupted and devastated the land, killing many of the residents. Matt uses his gifts of healing to save some of the victims, and when he finds Bonnie, he engages in another life-or-death battle with Tamiel’s forces in an attempt to free her.
    In the meantime, Lauren learns that she is the only person who believes the cure to be possible, so she begins a search for it. Along the way, she gains an unusual companion who prepares her for a heart-wrenching decision. Her choice is simple: Sacrifice her own life or let the anthrozils die.

Song of the Ovulum by Bryan Davis

Back Cover: It has been fifteen years since Billy and Bonnie Bannister helped repel the
demonic assault on Heaven. Now they and Ashley Foley sit in a maximum security
prison where the authorities conduct experiments on them to learn the secrets of
long life. Earlier, the world’s acceptance of dragonkind crumbled, and the
Enforcers took the infant twins born to Billy and Bonnie and stole Excalibur,
hoping to develop a weapon to battle the dragons that are sure to try to rescue
their allies. All the while, a great secret from the past is being revealed to
Bonnie through a dream. Joran and Selah, teenaged children of Methuselah, have
been trapped in a strange world for centuries, yet still able to manipulate
certain events in our world during that time.

Walter Foley finds the Bannisters’ son and hopes to use his dragon traits to help him rescue the
prisoners. In the meantime, an ancient demon locates the Bannisters’ daughter
and plans to use her to help him discover the hiding place of the most powerful
ovulum in the world and squelch its protective song. With that ovulum in his
possession, he will be able to conquer and control both Earth and Second
Eden.

The fate of two worlds now rests on the Bannisters’ two teenagers
who must use their dragon traits and their innate courage to battle demons, a
sorceress, and soldiers in a military compound in order to rescue parents they
don’t even know.
