The Dragons of Zimzor First of a new adventure trilogy Zimzor is packed with challenge, danger and conflict as two unlikely young heroes overcome generations of hatred as enemies and unite their people and the amazing, powerful dragons to save the beleaguered people of the forest from certain destruction. Eli is chosen to be the newest apprentice dragon-keeper from the peaceful town of Zimley. Life seems perfect for Eli as he learns the many tasks required of him in the dragon colony. Before long, Eli finds himself training in the dragon nursery and attends the hatching of a very special baby dragon. Meanwhile, Kane lives a perilous life deep within the forests of Jolara, the land across the sea from Zimley. Kane's right to leadership is challenged and his small family driven away; deeper into the forest. As he leads his family toward safety, an unimaginable danger attacks the hunters behind him. Kane witnesses a scene that is nothing short of a myth come to life. If the beast is true, then could the legendary dragons also be true? Kane risks his life to find out and seek help to save his family and his people from certain destruction. With determination and bravery, Kane eventually meets Eli and explains his plight. Together the pair seeks out the dragon king to petition for the dragons to aid the Jolaran people. Woven throughout, Biblical truths point readers to the Creator God, the beauty of His creation and value of each individual. Readers will be challenged as characters face opportunities to choose between right and wrong, the truth and a lie, and the choice to stand up for what is right.

The book's primary aim was to present the children's stories in a neutral, non-judgemental way and let the reader decide. The original idea came to co-author Mary Harrison when she observed her youngest son, Christopher, trying to pick flowers from a floral pattern on her bed cover. The little baby's actions seemed so quirky and amusing that Mary was prompted to have a letter published in Woman's Own. Mary asked if other mothers had experienced similar 'odd' moments with their little ones. She was completely unprepared for the replies she got - Mary was overwhelmed with letters from parents reporting accounts of reincarnation. It was the key word From this 'PAST LIVES: Children Time Forgot' was born. Baby Christopher Leon is now an academic writer in Florida, USA and is married with two wonderful sons. Mary sadly passed away in 2002.

From the content it is easy to see that for most people their glimpse into the unknown has left them undoubtedly moved, puzzled and often frightened. Perhaps one of the strangest unexplained event comes from Ronald Pattinson: 'When I was a soldier I had a strange spinetingling experience which I have never been able to account for.....' The book includes haunting ghost stories from Scotland. In this section we touch upon phantom soldiers, ghostly lovers, mist-shrouded kilted apparitions, murderous ministers and even a disappearing bank in a time slip.

We have also avoided fairies, imps, warlocks, besoms, monsters and the legions of legendary beings which undoubtedly make for an entertaining read but do little for the credibility of the true stories in our book.

'The Children That Time Forgot' started out as 'Life Before Birth'. PROOF OF REINCARNATION? By P B H With the successful publication of the reincarnation classic 'THE CHILDREN THAT TIME FORGOT' (Originally published as Life Before Birth ) by Peter & Mary Harrison, the questions are still being asked: Is their a human Spirit? Does it exist after death? Where was Spirit before birth? Since the dawn of time humanity has pondered the question of it's own mortality. What domain do we go to after death? The authenticated accounts in'THE CHILDREN THAT TIME FORGOT' stirred up a lot of questions and debates when it was first published. On ITV's 'This Morning' Mary Harrison asked the viewers if they had been exposed to any strange or paranormal activity. There was an explosion of calls which blocked the ITV phone network. There was the story of Nicola who was a boy in a previous life and was killed by a train in Yorkshire.

She was completely unprepared for the replies she got - Mary was overwhelmed with letters from parents reporting accounts of reincarnation. From this 'THE CHILDREN THAT TIME FORGOT' was born. Baby Leon is now an academic writer in Florida, USA and is married with 2 sons. Mary sadly passed away in 2002. Her husband Peter continues to work as a successful author and producer.
