  • The Protector of Dragons

    J.H. Sweet

    Paperback (Independently published, Jan. 3, 2018)
    Under a fatal sickness stemming from a sorcerer’s curse, the female dragons are in terrible trouble. The survival of the dragons is vital as we draw nearer to the Endtimes, when they will be called upon to help remake the earth with fire. As the Protector of Dragons, the task to help them falls to Quinlyn Brinker. Coming back in time to help her is none other than Quin’s future counterpart, Ashton Ingram, who is a Sapphire Boy gifted not only with shield capabilities, but also with the ability to cry sapphires that either heal or shield. The team also includes a shapeshifter, a magician, and a person with super hearing. On their path to fixing the problem, Quin and her friends seek help from a conjure woman and solve a mystery involving five graveyards, all the while battling a powerful band of miscreants that includes a person with control over fire, a Stone Hunter intent on capturing the Sapphire Boy, and the sorcerer who caused the problem in the first place.

  • Time Key Travelers

    J.H. Sweet

    Paperback (Independently published, Jan. 3, 2018)
    God has given His children the ability to time travel not only to fix problems, but also to create powerful tools to help them survive until the Endtimes. In this series of adventures, we learn the origins of such powerful magical objects as the seven spheres, the six bagicals, and even the time-travel portals themselves that have saved so many over the years from the oppression of the evil sorcerers and their cohorts. Amidst a whirlwind of time-travel adventures, in which she helps to build both the glass and stone pyramids, Zinnia Summerhaven (a powerful magician) also searches for a way to help a mysterious friend. While the Time Key Travelers are busy battling such foes as false dragons and false prophets, Zin discovers that the answer to certain magical secrets actually lies in the powers of a magician and a sorcerer combined. Along the way, she also begins to realize that time might not be exactly what we think it is.

  • The Once and Forever Mountain

    J.H. Sweet

    Hardcover (Westin Hills Books, April 17, 2017)
    Following the rise of the Supercities, much of the human race has been enslaved inside the cities and work camps. Blessedly, earthship and mothership communities are flourishing; and many people have taken refuge on a mountain protected by magical spirits and a mysterious white lion. However, in dealing with constant battles, some are growing weary in waiting for the Endtimes. Others struggle to deal with traitors, and temptations. Amidst battles raging on both land and sea, now is finally the time to mount the rescue of the unicorn, captured and being starved to death by sorcerers. This is crucial because the unicorn is connected to the soul of the person capable of overproducing human goodness, needed to feed the magical creatures helping to protect us. If the unicorn dies, the person will die. Blessedly, God is again providing help, not only in the form of magical ships capable of navigating the Bermuda Triangle, but also from creatures such as a white dragon, behemoths, and even tiny spreesprites who, with help from magical hummingbirds, are capable of stopping time. Ages 12+ Clock Winders: Wind Horses and Horned Lions, Burnished Doves and Sky Serpents, Netherwind and Laurelstone, The Clock of the Universe, The Once and Forever Mountain
  • The Promise of the Snow Gryphon

    J H Sweet

    Hardcover (Westin Hills Books, July 2, 2018)
    The snow gryphon Telános has just met his future charge (the person he will eventually be assigned to protect) who traveled back in time to secure a promise from him. While keeping watch on a magical Time Glass connected to the promise, the snow gryphon finds himself struggling with whether or not he will be able to keep his word. To take his mind off of this troubling situation, Telános is keeping busy helping other human beings in the here and now, many of whom are themselves struggling to cope with the latest form of malice cooked up by the sorcerers and their followers--a chemical creation known as a hypnoid that causes anyone under its influence to obey certain commands. Even family members and close friends could be affected and not even know it, a factor throwing many communities into suspicion and chaos. However, people still must go on living, and taking on projects, such as a very important one in involving gemstones, dragons, and Myramids (many magical pyramids). Amidst various scares and hardships, our heroes come to discover that, perhaps even more than the worst of human beings, the best of us also very much need the blessing of Second Chances.

  • The Lost Genie Diaries

    J.H. Sweet

    Paperback (Independently published, July 6, 2018)
    The Lost Genie Diaries, totaling three in number, were found by the snow gryphon Telános in a hidden library that had been burned by the sorcerers’ Torch Squads. The diaries miraculously escaped the fire, and were not even sooty when the snow gryphon found them. Each having a different color cover (bronze, silver, and gold), the diaries contained stories chronicling the genies’ involvement in various matters of the human world, both large and small. The twelve tales selected from the diaries for this book were Telános’ favorites and include the following: The Dumbwaiter, How Tall the Yew Grew; Buttons, Feathers, Bottles, Etc.; The Puck Fashion Shop, The Jasper Diamond, Eighteen Orclings and Their Deeds, The Waiting Gryphix, Wrengo’s Wooden Soldiers, Sickare’s First Project, The Bigfoot and the Honey Badger, Netherwind’s Treehouse, and The Gargoyle Who Hid the Moon.

  • Spreesprites and Soul Shadows

    J H Sweet

    Hardcover (Westin Hills Books, Dec. 3, 2018)
    Each person on earth has a unicorn attached to his or her soul. While battling the likes of demons and megahobs (giant hobgoblins), a group of time travelers seeks to unravel the mystery of tapping into the powers of our personal unicorns, also known as Soul Shadows. And speaking of mysteries, despite being incredibly busy, our heroes still find time to solve a few, such as that of the elusive Loch Ness Monster. In addition to familiar helpers such as gargoyles and puck trolls, we find tiny fairy-like creatures known as spreesprites working on our behalf to thwart even the likes of flash dragons and sorcerers, who are still up to much of their same malice. So too are a gryphix, a twelf (a twelfth elf born to a family and given special powers), and a cloudbird all ready and willing to come to our aid. Along with the powers of magical creatures, many of the gifted find their own skills growing stronger as we draw nearer to the Endtimes. In their ongoing battle against evil, the godly also discover that old saying--about how unicorns are hiding in the unused part of the brain--to be pretty much true.

With the gifts of both human beings and magical creatures getting stronger as we near the End of the Age, the path to accomplishing the miracles runs very smoothly to start. Amidst such wonders as Jasper Diamonds and Blessing Boxes made by the angels, our heroes discover no shortage of the miraculous even in their everyday surroundings to include living boulders, magical topiaries, and the genies’ Magical Grapevine. However, when tragedy strikes very close to home midway through their project, Zin and Luis must work diligently to get back on track, or else much more will be lost than just the remaining miracles. Blessedly, while battling the likes of ancient teraphim and gifted miscreants, they receive help from unexpected sources.

She also discovers that the miracles occurring in our world might be grander than anything we can imagine, perhaps even reaching to beyond the stars.

    Hardcover (Westin Hills Books, Sept. 21, 2019)
    Magic and mystery often go hand in hand; and it is now time for magician Zin Summerhaven and her friends to solve several Great Mysteries relating to the Myramids, the Sixteen Dimensions, the windows on the mezzanine, and the Peacock Garden. Along the way, Zin is also called upon to learn the Secret of Rainbows, in order to gain the skills of flying and walking on clouds so that she can access zephyrs, which are specialized wind horses capable of battling deadly and unstoppable shadows known as penumbras that have been raised by the sorcerers. In order to learn this all-important secret, Zin must unlearn some of her magical skills, as well as broaden her thinking. Mirrors, thimbles, art, wind eddies, clocks, and even underling demons end up being important factors, along with the Seven Blessing Boxes, which, in addition to leviathan scales and dragon feathers, will be as crucial to the survival of God's children in the Endtimes as the abundance of Hope, Joy, and Peace our Heavenly Father is constantly raining down upon us.
