Book 1: Pangaea
What would you do if you were enjoying a fabulous Caribbean cruise and you were suddenly thrust into another world? A hostile land where history went astray, animals that are extinct in our own world are flourishing, human society is a conglomeration of cultures and eras mixed up together, slavery is prominent, and the social classes are at war with each other?
World famous, award winning British singer Tristan Granleigh and Skye Talbot, a secretary in a technical college in Oregon, have to face just such a crisis in their lives. They know all too well what Dorothy meant when she told Toto they weren’t in Kansas anymore. Staying alive isn’t merely an old song, it’s a desperate struggle.
If they got there, there must be a way back. An eccentric old man named Varon finds himself embroiled in these strangers’ search, but there’s something about this strange old man that triggers an odd feeling in Tristan. Why does Varon seem familiar?
Does the Harborage hold the secret? Could it be the way back home?
It’s a quest for the Harborage, but is it truly the road to a refuge for the oppressed peasants of Pangaea? Could it lead to the dimensional vortex back to Tristan and Skye’s own world? Or could it be a dark path to something far worse and more dangerous? It’s a perilous journey across the largest continent that ever existed on earth and someone may have to die before it’s over.
Book 2: Gondwana
After nearly a year’s journey across Pangaea, Varon and his motley group of friends arrive at the Harborage, but their entrance is interrupted by the arrival of a slave ship from the southern continent of Gondwana and the Varonites are nabbed by the Gondwani slavers, forcing them into the cargo hold deep in the bottom of the ship, where nearly 100 other forlorn looking people have already been held prisoner. Just when Tristan and Skye felt they could find their way home to their own world, it now looked hopeless.
To make things worse, Gillip and Shayne were now a part of their group. Kimber suffered the dual maladies of sea sickness and morning sickness. Sea voyages seemed to be cursed for Tristan and Skye.
Now their lives were about to change drastically once again. How long would they have to live in the dank, crowded slave hold? And what lay ahead for them once they reached Gondwana? Would they remain together or would they be separated and sent to different parts of Gondwana?
The future looked bleak. They looked to Varon for some answers, but Varon was in the same boat as the others. There was nothing he could do to get them out of this.
Book 3: Laurasia
“Way back when we first arrived here, I promised you that I would try to find a way to get you back home. I’ll hold to that promise for the rest of my life if I have to, until we make it back home. You will see your family again, Skye. I promise you that.” He let out a quick laugh. “It might not be for twenty years, but we’ll get there, by Jove!” Could Tristan keep that promise to Skye?
With the civil war in Gondwana giving Varon and his friends the means of escape from a life of slavery in Gondwana, and with the help of an old friend, they find themselves on a Pangaean ship heading to Laurasia to deliver the Emperor Sulong to his rightful place, but Sulong knows there will be a battle between himself and his twin sister, Le-An, who has claimed the throne as Empress. This would prove to be a rough time ahead. Le-An was responsible for Sulong’s near death and she would fight with all she had in her to keep her position and her power over Laurasia.
Varon promised to return Sulong to the Imperial Palace to take his rightful place and to put an end to his sister’s evil reign. But what perils will the Varonites have to overcome before the Emperor can be returned to the throne?
