Avalon, The Pilot Episode
Alexis, born an elf, turned human to marry Lincoln, but her elf father fears she will age too rapidly and he will soon lose her. He kidnaps her, and through the Heart of Time on Avalon, hides her at the beginning of time. Lincoln, Lincoln's boss Lockhart, his assistant Boston, two elves they hope will talk sense to the kidnapper, and two marines for protection are carried by the Kairos to the beginning of history. They capture the kidnapper and save Lincoln's wife, but there is a complication. The Kairos disappears.

Now, the only way home is through the time gates that surround the many lives of the Kairos. They must move through the centuries, face new struggles in each time zone, and keep one eye turned behind where other things have fallen through the cracks in time and are now hunting them.

Avalon, Season One Travelers
Season One finds the travelers from Avalon struggling through time gates and across time zones in Neolithic days, where they confront things they never imagined. A whole company of ghouls begins to hunt them, a bogy man and his bogy beast attack their minds, a bokarus - a green man, defender of the pristine wilderness, vows to destroy these modern intruders. There are troubles thrown back from the future and space races that carry all sorts of advanced technology and who have no love for homo sapiens. They have to travel through the Neolithic world where ogres and imps still play and where gods like Tiamut (Chaos) and Pan (Lord of the Dance) think nothing of using and abusing people.

Boston clings to Lockhart for a time until she finds a defender in Roland, their elf companion. Roland's sister, Alexis, an elf made human, and her human husband Lincoln struggle with being young again, much to the delight of her father Mingus who would just as soon see them separated. Lockhart and the two Marines, Katie Harper and Captain Decker, cling to their guns and hope only to get everyone back to the twenty-first century, alive. And there is something wrong with Doctor Procter.

People are kidnapped, herds stampeded and demons await them down the trail in a world where man, nature and Hell itself seem arrayed against them. Season One includes 13 episodes, where the travelers journey through 13 lifetimes of the Kairos, a person who never manages to live a quiet life.

I hope you enjoy reading the Avalon series as much as I have enjoyed writing it. Happy Reading.

Look for Avalon, the prequel: Invasion of Memories, where the Kairos comes out of a time of deep memory loss, and in order to keep his mind from being overwhelmed by the sudden influx of memories, he tells stories from his past, from when he remembered who he was: the Kairos, the Traveler in Time, the Watcher over History. He knows he cannot afford to become incapacitated. There are three Vordan battleships on the dark side of the moon, and they are preparing to invade.

Look also for Avalon, Season Two, Bokarus available from this same bookseller.
