Armed with Power: Shimmertree Chronicles Book 1

Laurelin McCloud wants her phone back. She wants her free time, instead of babysitting her little brother. She wants the friends she left behind in California. Mostly she wants her mom not to be dead. But clutching a magical leaf on a far away planet makes her wonder if she escaped too far. Maybe she shouldn’t have plucked the leaf off the shimmering tree back on Earth. But the angel had been so convincing. Haefen is startled when Laurelin appears right in front of him. He’s on a journey to claim his magical heritage and wield the power of his god. But he won’t get far without his father’s name. Hundreds of years ago, wicked priests overthrew the rightful king of Betavar. They’ve been amassing power ever since. They’ll stop Haefen, if they can. Together, Haefen and Laurelin walk through solid rock toward a destiny that links them in an epic battle against menacing evil. You’ll be drawn, with Laurelin, into the magic of Haefen’s world. What if the creator in Genesis created other worlds besides ours? Every planet would probably follow the same pattern: A garden with a man and a woman deciding whether or not to eat the fruit. If they ate the fruit, they’d be evicted from the garden. An angel would be instructed to guard the Tree of Life. Many planets, all with angels holding swords, guarding trees. The Guardians would shimmer with power, so the trees they guarded would too…Shimmertrees. What if these Shimmertrees connected the planets? People could travel between worlds, and Guardians could gather things from other worlds. If the creator were omnipresent, the corridors of time would open. Guardians could use Shimmertrees to travel in time as well as space.
