Review & Description

Heaven's Jewel: Aaron, Patrick, and Christine Wallace are trying to find a way home after surviving the plane crash that killed their parents and marooned them on a mysterious island. Thanks to the manipulative antics of the Time Entity, their quest will take many months and span many lands. Their journey is full of the unexpected. However, events such as encountering trolls and dragons in a magical garden, seeking the mythical Spidersong to free Jewel Trees from a curse, visiting a futuristic city, sailing beneath the Glacier of Dreams, and witnessing the birth of the Time Entity are nothing compared to the surprise of discovering that their actions hold the key to the survival of all of mankind.

The Eternity Stone: As the time nears for the people of the planet to take refuge in the protected place known as Heaven's Jewel, the exact location of the mysterious island is as yet unknown. In order to buy time, the four grandchildren of the original travelers search for the Eternity Stone, the only object capable of stopping time worldwide. However, before the search for the stone can even begin, the four are called upon to tackle a set of challenges on Elmara Lodés in which they must survive encounters with phantasms, gooleegungs, and other foul creatures. Amidst the many twists and turns of their journey, the new travelers form unusual alliances and make difficult decisions that actually end up changing the events of the past for their ancestors. Once the stone is found, they must piece together an unusual puzzle in order to finally locate the safe haven for mankind.

Futures Sown: What if Spidersong and the Jewel Trees never existed? Events might have taken a very different turn, and the place of refuge for mankind might never exist. In this final segment of the Time Entity Trilogy, the travelers must once again face a series of difficult and bizarre challenges in order to finally secure the safe haven. With the Time Entity still engaged in his quest to outmaneuver Death, the double twins once again traverse the Circles of Time to lay the foundation for the future. Joined by new friends, and familiar faces, their path takes them to a valley of clouds, through a deserted underwater city, and into a realm riddled by fire tornadoes and earth tremors. They must also pass an unusual test in a candy factory in order to complete their quest to locate the seeds to plant the Jewel Trees. Similar to their bargain to obtain the Eternity Stone, the travelers once again feel conflicted when called upon to help create Mirrorseed, the evil fortress of elf enchantments and experiments. However, under the guidance of the Fate Entity, they are eventually able to understand that even some very unpleasant things are meant to be.
