From
Whatever Shadows They Come
"Myth,
legend and science fiction are melded together spanning
centuries and planets in an imaginative, sweeping story...An
interesting and challenging read."
Mary-Anne Barker.
"From
here it is said that once more he can look to the shores of
this land and beyond where armies still fight, and will -
until these times are gone. Those who have seen him say that
if all is well, and if the land will withstand the forces
which threaten it, from whatever shadows they come, the king
will stand high in his stirrups and drink from the silver
goblet to the King of Kings, Lord of Complexity and Chaos. But
for him to drink to his liege lord, the cup must be there in
time, with its bearer. And herein lies these stories."

From the House of
Elix, three brothers of the royal blood have spent centuries in a
search involving a lost silver goblet, a cup crafted long ago, which
somehow holds the key to their past and their future.
As guardians to
the planet Earth, their heraldic colours grant each of them powers
whose limits they do not know. Yet there are others from ages past
in time and space who know of their search, and have both their own
powers, and their own designs. With the disappearance of the King
and Queen, some seek balance, some seek power, but the wrath of a
Prince can be deadly.
From the planet
Complexity, through the Dark Passages, to ancient and modern-day
Earth, the quest maps new worlds and old, as the princes Dragos,
Gerwin and Meer seek the goblet, before the ghost of the High King
rides out once more.
"...A wonderful read
...exciting and intellectually stimulating.... It's true a good
children's book can be read with pleasure by a reader of any age..."
Ann Macrae.
