Bell Mountain (#1)
Finally... Faithful Fiction that Reveals the Kingdom of God!
The world is going to end as soon as Jack and Ellayne ring the bell on top of Bell Mountain. No one has ever climbed the mountain, and no one has ever seen the bell. But the children have a divine calling to carry out the mission, and it sweeps them into high adventure...
The Cellar Beneath the Cellar (#2)
A world's future lies buried in its distant past. Barbarian armies swarm across the mountains, driven by a terrifying vision of a merciless war god on earth. While a nation rallies its defenses, a boy and a girl must find the holy writings that have been concealed for 2,000 years; and the man who was sent to kill them must now protect them at all costs...
The Thunder King (#3)
Can Obann be saved? Must the West's great city fall to the barbarians?
The Thunder King's vast army encamps against the city, a ring of fire and steel. But treason brews inside the city walls...
The tiny army of the Lord is on the march against the undefeated horde, in bold obedience to a divine command; but the boy king, Ryons, marches all alone across an empty land. The Lost Books of Scripture have been found, but they may be lost again before the human race can read them. And Jack and Ellayne have been captured by the Heathen...
The Last Banquet (#4)
In the wake of a barbarian invasion, chaos sweeps across Obann. The boy king and his faithful chiefs try to restore order before the Heathen come again - not knowing that this time, the Thunder King himself will lead his armies.
The Great Temple lies in ruins, but another Temple has arisen in the East. And the heroes of Bell Mountain, Jack, Ellayne, and Martis, captured by the Heathen Griffs, are to be brought before the Thunder King...
The Fugitive Prince (#5)
There is a new Thunger King in the East, and new threats against the West. The City of Obann seethes with treason and plots against King Ryons - and an ignorant slave boy must defend the rightful king's throne. And from the Lost Book of King Ozias emerges the first glimmer of God's promise of a Savior.
In an age of treason, with the Temple laid in ruins and no First Prester to lead it, what will be the fate of the man who betrayed the Temple to destruction? Will the nation turn to the New Temple in the East - or to the words of their God?
The Palace (#6)
God's judgment hangs over the great city of Obann. In the Palace, power-hungry men enter into secret dealings with Obann's archenemy, the Thunder King.
Queen Gurun and the boy who doubles for King Ryons; Jack, kidnapped from his home and forced to serve the traitors plotting against the rightful king; and a new lord of Obann's Temple, bearing a weapon with unthinkable powers of destruction... All are converging on the Palace.
For the first time in two thousand years, Obann will have a Coronation Day, and a king will wear his crown. But it is not the plotters' intention that he shall wear it for long.
The Glass Bridge (#7)
Can faith do what pride and power can’t? In obedience to God, the boy king, Ryons, with only half his tiny army, crosses the mountains to invade the Thunder King’s domains.
The new First Prester, Lord Orth, a man of peace, is called to lead a savage nation in a war for freedom and survival—and to deliver God’s word to Heathen peoples who have never known it.
At the top of Golden Pass, wealth beyond calculation lies waiting for whoever can take it. Will it be the king’s man, Baron Roshay Bault, or an unscrupulous lord with a renegade army behind him?
Confronted by perils they can barely understand, with no safe choices set before them, the heroes of Obann must risk their lives on the glass bridge that can only be crossed by faith.
The Temple (#8)
King Ryons has led his tiny army into the heart of the Thunder King's dominion. Ahead lies the impregnable fortress of the enemy, defended by the destructive powers of the ancient world. The First Prester, Lord Orth, continues his missionary work among the Heathen: for God has commanded him to establish a new Temple, one not made with human hands. But in the great city of Obann, they reject Orth's vision and seek to rebuild the old Temple with tainted gold amassed for the Thunder King by crime and violence. In Ryons' absence, his enemies work to abolish his kingdom and restore the defeated Oligarchy. They now control a vast treasure in gold, to be used against the king, and no scruple hinders them. Can the boy king's few remaining loyalists stop them? Can they protect the kingdom until the king returns to claim it? That is, if the king returns at all: for the way to the Thunder King's fortress is perilous beyond measure.
The Throne (#9)
The Thunder King has been destroyed—or has he actually reappeared in Obann’s greatest city, to claim it as his prey?
In city and in forest, the boy king’s loyal servants struggle to preserve his throne. But it will be a long journey home for King Ryons and his army, while ambitious and unfaithful men scheme to take away his kingdom.
Join the heroes of Bell Mountain as they fight for Ryon’s throne!
The Silver Trumpet (#10)
A silver trumpet sounds from the walls of the city, with tidings of unexpected joy: the Thunder Kind is dead, his empire destroyed, and the boy king, Ryons, whom all believed was dead, is coming home victorious. But no one can find the trumpeter. Was it a man of flesh and blood, or a messenger from Heaven?
The Temptation (#11)
Across the river from the great city of Obann lies a greater city, but a dead one—the ruins of Old Obann, destroyed in the Day of Fire a thousand years ago: the seat of Obann’s Empire, now a place of death and desolation. But do its ruins contain the secrets of the Empire, and its power? Can the distant past be brought to life again? The usurper who has seized the city from King Ryons now seeks that power for himself. The past calls to him, and he hears its voice.
His Mercy Endureth Forever (#12)
God’s judgment hangs over the city of Obann, still in the hands of usurpers. Can the city be called to repentance in time to save it from destruction? Lord Orth must return to the city to preach mercy and repentance, and Ellayne and Jack must get him there safely, past the tyrant’s men who’ve sworn to kill him.
The Wind from Heaven (#13)
Out of the tumult, the least likely persons in Obann City find themselves called upon to form a government and restore peace and justice. Can it survive? And Jack has had visions, but no one can interpret them.
Behold! (#14)
Great ships of war have sailed in from an unknown power in the west. Defense of Obann's coasts seems futile. But can an ancient artifact, with unknown powers, provide a defense-or will it destroy those who try to use it?
"Not by sword or spear" will the city of Durmurot be saved-such is the warning of a messenger from Heaven. Jack and Ellayne, King Ryons and his chieftains, an admiral who dares to resist a tyrant and his false god-all will find their faith tested to the limit... by a weapon left over from the Day of Fire.
