Sixteen-year-old Hamilton Dinger is an above-average teenager. He’s got the grades for the top of the class, the abilities of a star athlete and Tetris player, and the charisma to get away with anything. Everything seems to be going along perfectly as he enters into tenth grade at Apollo Central High School. Everything, that is, until a meteor crashes into the city, unleashing a whirlwind of evil and awakening a deep, hidden power as the long battle between good and evil continues. Bringing an abrupt halt to the easygoing pace of Hamilton’s life, he and his longtime dormant supernatural powers are caught up in the middle of things when his comfort zone is turned into a war zone. On top of everything else, there’s the homecoming game, the school play, and the history test to worry about. Can Hamilton overcome his ignorance and narrow-mindedness to see what is truly real? Can he give up his self-proclaimed entitlement to happiness in order to follow the call of a duty he doesn’t want? More importantly, will he willingly sacrifice all he has to find out the truth?

He had been at it twelve long months. He had conducted hundreds of experiments and still Alex Morris was no closer to figuring out how Anna Lane traveled in time than the first day he had laid eyes on the black cat bone. But when he walked out of his laboratory in a fit of frustration, suddenly, the light post dissolved into a tree, the street became a pond and the woman standing next to him became a man. Alex was not standing in his neighborhood any longer. He had traveled. But where had he traveled? What year was it? As soon as the thought came to his mind, the man standing next to him answered. You are in the New West, the man said without speaking. And the year is 2076. He smiled. We have been expecting you for some time. So begins the next adventure for Alex, Anna and Mama Do-Right, where Alex discovers secrets from the future to save the past.

Anna can't see her feet; in fact, she can't see any part of her body. What she can see are large, richly carved wooden canoes filled with heavily armored knights or are they Spanish Conquistadors? Whoever they are, they are far from home, sailing rapidly towards a foreign shore amid angry rolling waves. High on the shore in a thick grove of trees, Anna sees something else. Two large brown eyes stare intensely then blink and disappear into the leaves. It doesn't take Anna long to realize she is once again on an assignment. But where is she? And who or what was that in the tree? Because the eyes in the trees weren't staring at the men in the canoes, they were staring at her. So begins another adventure with Anna and Alex as they travel together to a strange land in search of Anna's next assignment. With Mama Do-Right's help and Anna's ancient book, they uncover a hidden tribe who test their beliefs in love, honor and time.
