What if the one who would be the greatest aid to you was someone
you didn't even know? 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 leads his people -- this boy prophet, their
protector, their guardian -- in sometimes fearsome might and with
uncanny perception as he battles the powers of Darkness that
threaten to engulf them all. From LEICESTER BAY BOOKS
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? Wembley is an average and very successful
fourteen-year-old. Everything comes easily to Wembley: the good and
the bad; but still not without some effort. Of Welsh origin himself
he can trace his ancestry back to both the Picts and the Celts.
Once enemies, this proud warrior blood is now combined and flowing
through the veins of our 21st Century youth. His parents had left
Wales in 1999 when he was a five to escape the heavy hand of the
last strong British policy towards the region, and left behind them
the body, but not the memory, of a second son lost in childbirth.
They came to America where they settled near Portland, Maine.
Through strange and fantastic adventures, completely unplanned or
unexpected by Wembley or his family, he begins to sense that he may
have a mystic and hidden connection to the magic and lore of his
native land. His nemesis is Evie Griffith, who has a common and
similar secret unknown to Wembley. She is different. She has some
sort of power; power to hurt him -- emotionally. He can't explain
it. She won't explain it. His friends and family don't understand
it. No one can do anything about it. There is something about Wales
that calls him back. Each encounter with these strange and unusual
far aways -- Wembley calls them 'DreamTravels' -- will lead him
closer to his ancient home; and to his destiny. From LEICESTER BAY
BOOKS ABOUT 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? 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."

ABOUT THE BOOK: What if it took the loss of everything you loved
for you to become whom you were meant to be? An ancient Prophecy is
fulfilled as Daniel, the Miracle, is found and trained by the Light
and is then led to discover the sacrifices necessary for his
success in the growing battle against the Dark. Miraden, Master
Magician and Enchanter under the direction of the Creators of the
Realms of the Crystal Orb, finds a boy pure of heart and mind. The
ancient Prophecy is fulfilled in Daniel, the miracle boy, as he
learns and is guided at the Master's side. His inherent powers help
to heal the scars that the Dark has left behind, recover a stolen
and bewitched princess, and fight a war against the forces led by
Miraden's Dark brother, Tophet. The boy's own ties to his family
are tested and in the final outcome a larger family stands together
around Daniel and all proclaim him to be The Miracle of Mirador. A
Prince on a quest for his betrothed Princess; A Kingdom searching
for its lost daughter - that same princess; An Enchanter seeking
the Miracle of Prophecy promised since the dawn of time who is to
become his apprentice and save the world; A boy growing up wise in
a loving family, seeking friends who will understand and share his
dreams; A Darkness, alive since before the moment of Creation -
before Humans, before Dwarves - seeking supremacy over its eternal
foes: all meet in a climactic conflagration of battles fueled by
secrecy, magic and treachery. The battles center around the heart
of the Realms of the Crystal Orb: the kingdom of Mirador. How the
Prince, Princess, Enchanter and Dark Wizard are aided or vanquished
by the Miracle forms the center of "The Miracle of Mirador." ABOUT
THE SERIES: Daniel Light and the Children of the Orb SERIES
Thirteen novels of mystery and magic By C. Michael Perry Youth, in
a world and a time that are faraway, learn how to fulfill the
demands of the prophecy that are placed on their shoulders. It is a
time and place of dragons and magic and other creatures beyond our
ken - upon which the Darkness is constantly encroaching. From
Creation to Renewal this is the story of a planet. Not our planet,
but it could be. From first to last it is a journey of duties, of
wants, of needs; and of a doubt - that reluctance that takes each
of us from the carefree levels of our childhood through adolescence
to adulthood. A journey that includes the discoveries and
sacrifices each of us must make as we seek to return to that place
from whence we came having learned, in whole or in part, what we
were sent here to learn. These stories combine the need for the
fairytales of our childhood with the thirst for knowledge and
adventure that is possessed by the adolescent. These needs we never
seem to outgrow, even as adults. Youth and adult alike can and
should be empowered with the desire and ability to make correct
decisions in their lives; ones that will lead each of us to good,
honest, valuable lives in adulthood. The youths of these stories,
through the careful guidance of their mentoring adults, variously
achieve or fail to reach such empowerment for whatever reason -
internal or external. The Light inside each of us needs be
recognized for what it is; POWER. It should be encouraged and
kindled to full flame to help deflect and defeat the Dark that
surrounds us. Daniel, the Miracle of Mirador, is at the beginning,
the center, and the ending - he is the leader - of our journey.
