It was a hot day at school and Helen had made sure that she drank sufficient water only she went over the top so during the lesson after lunch she asked to go to the toilet. On her way to the girls’ toilets she is engulfed by Hyming and spirited out of the school and across the universe to the Uklet Galaxy.She was not to know but 2 other ‘Goods’ had all ready visited the planet Drogan but could not find the reason for the beings dying, that is when Helen was called in

Excerpt from The Mirror and the LampRom; resembled Athens, Brussels was just a smaller Paris, one country town is very like another; but St. Dun stan's is like nothing except itself.Even the idlest tourist at once recognises the spell, and in every minute that he lingers he submits to its deepening force. He is not so much affected by what he sees as by what he feels. The place is old, the streets are narrow, and over all the clustered roofs rises the splendour of the church of Christ; here one pauses with bowed head to gaze at hal lowed ground, here one strains lifted eyes to catch the sun light on stones that look like lace hung as a curtain in the sky; under that archway used to ride mailed warriors; round those cloisters came lines of singing monks; and over the marshy plain, through the night of history, from cities that are dust and lands that have long since lost a name, wended their way century after century the endless pilgrim horde - but all this is nothing, the drone of hireling guides, the tale of a three-penny book, the echo of memory's sleepy tongue. What is real is the faith that clings to the faithful spot. Here men believed; here men are still believing.It is less than nothing that all which was material should perish and decay, if all that was spiritual and impalpable may continue to live. This is the third church that has stood in the meadow blessed by the saint, and if this too falls a fourth shall take its place; but, new or old, it would always be the same church - the self-same church wherein conquering lords of a savage isle craved pardon from the God-man whom their ancestors had killed, wherein sun beams slanting down from lofty windows made tremulous tinted halos for a martyr's brow; wherein foreign refugees crept underground to worship in darkness, and praise the maiden queen whose hand was strong enough to hold them 33 e.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This is the 6th time that the Visitants have called on their ‘Good’ from Earth.As Helen cycles home from school with 3 of her friends they all g their separate ways once they arrive at the first roundabout, Helen takes the last exit but she never makes it as a van driver is on his mobile phone and doesn’t notice Helen and her High Visibility jacket. As she flew through the air she calls out ‘Hyming’, but is was not Hyming who saved her but his younger sister Pyling.The bank for the Imkoo Galaxy was collapsing and without it many beings across the galaxy will die.Helen knows about how to look after her pocket money and how to earn extra by doing odd jobs for her mother or their neighbours but the banking systems are beyond her knowledge. Zacred insists that as she is a ‘Good’ it is her duty to save these beings.

Helen James is now 11 years old and studying hard so that she can attend the Church-in-the-Woods Academy at the start of the next academic year.The ‘Visitant’ Hyming comes and collects Helen to take her back to the ‘Visitants’ home cloud.The ‘Visitants have discovered an object streaking across the universe which appears to be some form of space vehicle but it is frozen and so are the occupants.
